On the finnish news web site basically saying that Nokia gave a press release that they are going to have a press conference that is going to be very interesting to the press. And not all journalists are gonna fit in the conference. So it implies that they are gonna release some product or service that makes a difference in the mobile market. The stock jumped 5-6 percent after the press release. It seems that they would not give that kind of press release if they were to only release the phones that have speculated already in the media i.e. 900 and 610 plus some feature phones.
Nokia Conversations reminds you how CARL ZEISS lens changed the world. It’s another hint that a new camera-centric smartphone is indeed coming in MWC. http://conversations.nokia.com/2012/02/24/how-carl-zeiss-lens-changed-the-world/
Seriously, a lens-related article randomly posted at this point in time [when we're just a few days from MWC]? There must be something up on their sleeves!!

The same directly from Strategy analytics:

Nokia holding 33% of WP market share with 900k shipped units in Q4 2011.

Theme coming sooner for Nokia Symbian Devices. S60v5, Anna and Belle support confirmed!
So does the Dark Knight Rise on our devices?

just a little something small but saw my n8 get a 157 points with 7 bonus points on html5test.com
its a huge increase over the last anna version which got something in the 20′s but its still behind android 2.3 which got 182 and 6 bonus points but its still way behind the best of the best. oh btw windows phone mango got 141 with 1 bonus point.
Seing tweets about beta on voice navigation at m.maps.nokia.com, cannot find it with my N9 but maybe android and ios-devices have it?
On second thought this maybe released only in some locations, Sweden seems not to have it but people seems to be trying it on other locations. Great news if Nokia goes this way and delivers voice nav to everyone!
