Tommi is asking the net for help, just passing the message along:

My colleague Stephen Johnston (remarkably great chap) is looking for volunteers:

Have an N73 or E61? Work for us. For free!

I’m helping out some colleagues of mine at Nokia who are looking for
some informal pre-release testing on one of our forthcoming consumer
internet services. Criteria would be:
i) London based (easier for me)
ii) you already have an N73 or E61
iii) willing to provide feedback in return for, say, a beer?

We don’t need real mobile or tech experts, but a sense of humour
would be good, especialy regarding the foibles of alpha/beta level
stuff. If we get enough people, we could do a meetup for drinks and
feedback on the company tab. Testing period wil just be a few weeks. If
interested, leave your details in the comments, or email me at stephen
dot johnston at nokia dot com.

Heh. The blogosphere might be an effective way to recruit knowledgeable, insightful, and passionate volunteers.

Stephen: after you’re done, please tell us if the experiment was a success. I might be interested to do similar stunts in my own blog.

Bonus link: TechCrunch writes about recruiting people via blogs. Also worth thinking.

So get out there and help!

UPDATE: Thanks PhoneBoy for telling me that Stephan meant E61 NOT E60!

    He updated the post to say E61 (instead of E60). Might want to correct that in your post.
