Based on the demographic of this blog, the last thing you’d expect to see is the parading of the tween hit books/movie series Twilight. But this time, the star of the show is not erm (imdb check), Kristen Stewart, Robert Pattinson, or Taylor Lautner. It’s the Nokia Nuron! (Not that any of them are actually [...]

Following on from part 1, as a new addition to Jay’s team here, here’s a look at what the second half of the last decade looked like for me, in terms of Nokia devices and the evolution of their specifications. My upgrade opportunity in 2007 was well-timed for the arrival of the iconic N95. Until [...]
If I had to guess, I suggest that very few readers of this blog would expect to come across a low quality image of an old Psion Series 5mx at the top of an article. Of course, we should never forget that Symbian, at the heart of so many modern Nokia devices, has its roots in [...]

Nokia’s Firmware update checker says that the N97 has a new firmware available, v30.0.016. But Nokia Software Updater and Over The Air update can’t find anything yet. But what we do know is that it’s coming soon. I’ve somewhat lost hope in the firmware updates for the N97. Fingers crossed it lessens my frustrations with [...]
ChipperMist has got his hands on a 5235 and has provided a video overview along with an unboxing and Ovi Store demo. The Nokia 5235 is a strupped down 5800, but with 2MP camera (instead of 3.2mp carl zeiss) and no WiFi. Note, that the 5235 is different from the 5230 because (supposedly) 5235 comes [...]
The N97 homescreen was quite nice when it was released. But lack of widgets, space and taste of Maemo 5 made it feel extremely old. Here’s a couple of videos showing a Maemo 5 style multiple homescreen on the N97. It uses GDesk like the videos in this 5800 homescreen hack post. Icon apps still [...]

Everyone must have heard the rumours of the N82 may finally get a worthy successor. Whilst not commenting directly on any specific rumours, here’s an ode (poem, whatever!) to new camera phone king; the supposed N82 successor, “the Nokia”, celebrating the possible return of dear beloved xenon, maybe higher MP and even high definition video.

SenjaMFK from Norway has strapped his N86 via mere gaffa tape to a Piper Cub model airplane. Although the propellers get in the way a little, it’s such an awesome view with the Nokia N86 on the RC plane darting around this picturesque snowy white location.

E75 owners may wish to avert their eyes as their phone becomes disassembled in this instructional video. It can help if you’re into DIY fascia/cover changing. I tried this a while back with my N82 and kinda broke the microphone (had to send off for repair). so be careful when taking anything on like this. [...]
