Disclosure: My policy on reviews

Few things I want to mention:

  • Bullhorn
    Nokia provided me the N93i for a fortnight (14 days) to review. Thank you Donna.
  • Most people only have 1 phone. Power users have multiple devices, but honestly if I want to fully understand and evaluate this thing I’m going to be using it as my sole mobile. I weep as I put my E61 in my drawer.
  • Any time Nokia or any other company gives me something to review, I will definitely (unless I’m told to respect an NDA like My-Symbian did for the E90) tell you guys.
  • I will spare no details when it comes to slamming and praising anything I get sent to evaluate.
  • If you’ve been reading my blog long enough then you know this to be true: I’m not here to serve Nokia, I’m here to tell Nokia how they can improve. That involves highlighting their faults. I may appear to be a cynic, but I do it out of love.

I think that’s a pretty accurate and compelling disclosure statement. Here is hoping I build a fine relationship with the people at Nokia.

Expect a review in 2 weeks.

    http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/fortnight

    “the space of fourteen nights and days; two weeks.”

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fortnight

    “A fortnight is a unit of time equal to two weeks: that is 14 days, or literally 14 nights. The term is common in the British Isles and many Commonwealth countries, but rarely used in the United States. It derives from the Old English feowertiene niht, meaning “fourteen nights”.”

    You sure about your claim of 20 days Olly?

    Haha, I stand corrected!
