Few days ago I read about Samsung’s upcoming SCH-U710 phone. This is NOT a Symbian device, but it does have one interesting feature. What I’m talking about is its unique keyboard. The SCH-U710 sports both numerical and QWERTY characters, with latter being used when the device is flipped on the side. This sort of feature…

Nokia 870/880 Internet Tablet!?
Just when I wrote about Nokia 330, a photo of the new Nokia non-phone device appeared on the Web. Apparently it’s 770‘s successor – the upcoming Nokia 870 or 880 Internet Tablet. Earlier this year, Nokia suggested that their next Internet Tablet will sport a webcam and WiMAX connectivity. The latter seems too early, but…
e61life's Theme Contest 2006 winners
Some time ago, e61life had a Theme Contest. Well, now we have the winners. But before I write anything about the winners, you should know that the Turquoise theme hadn’t qualified for contest. It’s understandable since it’s Nokia’s theme and it would make the contest boring. Daniel (from e61life) made the right decision, and now…
Nokia's Mission Impossible N93
Nokia has just introduced an interesting package. The new bundle consists of N93 “multimedia computer” and Mission Impossible 3 (M:i:III) movie. Unlike Nokia’s previous N93 golf edition package, where the golf software was pre-installed on the existing memory card, Mission Impossible 3 comes on the separate 512MB miniSD memory. The full length film runs at…
3GSM Asia other people’s reviews
Too many things to see, and so little time. I wasn’t able to attend this year’s 3GSM Asia. But, then again – it’s not Symbian Smartphone Show and most of the things happening there are not that interesting for me anyway. However, here are some links from the people who were there. S60 blogs’ Jouni…
Nokia E62 advertising
This is becoming a habit – to point to the cool posts on the E-Series blog. This time they found print ads for the Nokia E62, launched last month in the U.S. market. Along with the E-Series blog crew, I also hope that this will result in many more applications and services optimized for the…
Nokia 3250 gets an update
After selling more than one million units of its 3250 smartphone, Nokia prepared an update for this device. Owners of the Nokia 3250 can update their phone via Nokia Software Updater. Reminder – Nokia recently announced the music-dedicated version of the 3250.
Symbian Search launched
Thanks to the Google’s recently revealed Co-Op service, All About Symbian guys launched a custom search engine for Symbian related sites. The new Symbian Search includes many of the largest Symbian sites, and is the easiest way to get the information related to the Symbian ecosystem. It’s already in my bookmark and I suggest you…
Nokia N75 soon to be available via Cingular!?
It seems that Nokia has found a partner for spreading some Symbian love across the Ocean. Yap, it’s Cingular with whom Nokia already launched E62 last month. This time the name of the game is Nokia’s clamshell N75, recently presented “smallest Nseries multimedia computer”, specially designed for the U.S. market. If everything comes right, Cingular…
