Verizon will be adding a new Nokia device to its portfolio. The date is set for September 13th, when interested users living near “select NYC locations” will be able to grab the uber-weird looking Nokia 7705 Twist for $149.99 after rebates and with a contract. Rest of the U.S. will have to wait for the 21st, in case they’re still interested for purchase.
Specs wise, we’re talking about a handset that rocks swivel QWERTY keyboard, 3-megapixel camera, EV-DO Rev. 0 connectivity, full web browser, GPS, and so on. The problem is in the mentioned weird look and feel the Twist emits. Maybe it’s the Twist’s square-ish touch but I don’t like it at all, and honestly – I don’t see many people lining up to grab it on the launch day nor afterwards…

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.
