While we all wait for the release of the Nokia N81 and N95 8GB, in the meantime we could at least make our devices pretend they are part of the latest Nokia NSeries line thanks to this unofficial Nokia NSeries 4 theme. No, this won’t boost the amount of available RAM on your N95, nor…

Users in the UK are biggest texters in Europe
Mobile phone users in the UK send more text messages than any other nation in Europe. According to the worldwide survey of 10,000 mobile phone owners by media agency Universal McCann, British mobile phone users send an average of 100 SMSes each month. Compared with them, Germans and Americans seem like small kids with 65…
Nokia 6301: The popular 6300 gets WiFi
Just how popular was the Nokia 6300? Around 20% of Nokia’s profits for the second quarter fo this year were based on three devices: N95, E65 and the 6300. That says a lot about this little device. Today Nokia is launching the 6301, basically a WiFi equipped, UMA enabled 6300. Orange will be one of…
E-Ten Glofiish X800 finally starts shipping
Just when we’ve almost forgot about it, E-Ten will reportedly start shipping its strangely named Glofiish X800 Windows Mobile 6 based smartphone. If you remember it was announced back in March, got the FCC’s approval in July, and finally it’s set to be released. I’ll only recap the specs – there’s Samsung’s SC3 2442 500…

Apparently, a brief video which we got from Pocket PC Thoughts suggests the still unannounced device will most likely run Windows Mobile 6 Professional edition and…

Starting from November, the new service called MusicStation will allow customers to download as much music as they want for as little as $4.02 per week. Four major labels are on board, as…
Fake Nokia N93i
While in the past I’ve ranted how Chinese handset makers are getting better with the technology (i.e. WQVGA screens), it’s clear they’re also advancing in cloning — i.e. stealing intellectual property of other companies. Earlier, we had one really good lookin’ Nokia N76 ripoff and now, possibly the same company cloned the N93i. In terms…
Video: Another Nokia N81 commercial
This is the artsy fartsy stuff that I like, some prefer the commercials where you see nothing but specifications being highlighted on the screen over and over again, but I find these kind of videos stick inside my memory longer. What do you think, too creative or not enough of the physical product in the…
Nokia N95 with USA 3G to be available next week
Zach from Symbian in Motion just came back from the Flagship Store in NYC and posted on Jaiku that the N95 with 3G frequencies, larger battry and more RAM will be available next week. This falls in line perfectly with the Nokia Party that is supposed to be happening in LA next week. The official…

According Boy Genius‘s image of a leaked AT&T internal document, the AT&T Tilt and Q9 Global should be…
