Bandwidth. There just isn’t enough of it to go around given our demands, so Nokia is diving in head first to figure out a solution for all our mobile broadband woes.

Nokia: Anssi Vanjoki: All smartphones we release in 2011 will have NFC
Anssi Vanjoki, one of my favorite Nokia employees, and one of the few people who I think can turn the company around from it’s current trajectory of heading towards irrelevance, announced that each and every smartphone the company plans on shipping in 2011 will have NFC. This is a bold statement, and one I plan…

Nokia: We’re not doing too hot so we’re lowering our Q2 2010 and full year expectations
Nokia is in a pickle. They’re one of the few companies that make devices that span the sub 100 EUR part of the market, to over 500 EUR with flagship smartphones, and over 5000 EUR if you include the Vertu lineup. Unlike the other companies that have such a wide product portfolio, Nokia doesn’t have…

Nokia Unveils the 8GB X6 and X5 Slider, Slips Further Into the Past
The Nokia Connections event just kicked off in Singapore, and the Finnish company got things started by unveiling the Xseries X5 slider – a square, QWERTY keyboard slider handset. The styling for the X5 is a bit of an odd choice, and seems a little bit stuck in the past, but then again there are…
Nokia 5530 hits firmware v30 and has new updated browser plus kinetic scrolling everywhere
The Nokia 5530 is what the Nokia 5800, the Finnish company’s first touch screen device, should have been like. Now granted, S60 5th Edition doesn’t scream brilliant user experience, but at least the 5530 had a little bit of polish, plus came in a sleeker and smaller metal body. Shame it doesn’t have 3G or…
