I know that most of today’s phones looks pretty much the same. We have the brick, clamshell and slider form factors, as well as some specific variations that Nokia uses for its high-end N9x devices. And, let’s don’t forget the Z8‘s slider-kicker form factor.
That being said, it’s not strange to find two similar devices. Still, each of the handset manufacturers adds its personal touch to separate its product from the crowd. Or maybe that’s every non-China-based manufacturer…

Anyhow, NOKIR E828 is everything but an original device, and it doesn’t surprises that Nokia is trying to stop the distribution of this N73 clone. The company that made this device even used the Nokia-like font.
According to Softpedia, the Finish handset maker is suing every single shop that sells the Nokir E828. All the shops are asked to submit the existing stock and pay a $3870 fine for the damage incurred. (via: Darla Mack)

The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application.
