Nokia Tube coming next week?
Two sources have claimed that Nokia’s next XpressMedia device, the 5800 Tube, will be announced next week on October 2nd. at a London media event. This would jibe well with previous rumours, and give it some fine placement for the Christmas rush. As Nokia’s first touchscreen device and with a focus on media, the Tube…
UK: Nokia 1208 is only £24.99 SIM-free at MobileFun!
Another UK offer, and on this occasion, the time-limitation is “during this week” – however it is a good bargain, given you get a colour-screen, SIM-free Nokia for £24.99! MobileFun are the purveyors of this offer. It seems miraculous that handsets are now at such a budget price – admittedly Supermarkets have been pushing prices…

Along with the announcement of the N96 launch date (October 1st, for anyone living in place without the Internet!), Nokia have announced a stack of N96-only TV channels, calling them Capsule 96. Interestingly, or perhaps teasingly, each episode (mobisode?) is 96 seconds long – as oppose…
Nokia 5800 XpressMusic Promo Shot
The Nokia 5800 is finally making an appearance in a promo shot that has surfaced. Many of you had noticed the device in an appearance in The Dark Knight not so long ago. I bet it made you want the device, didn’t it? As you can see, the promo shot above looks pretty darn official…

UK: Expansys have the N96 and i8510!
Expansys were kind enough to email me today to tell me about the fact they have the Samsung i8510 (8MP, 8GB) in stock, and will soon have the Nokia N96 (5MP, 16GB) also! The handsets are being sold SIM-free, so there is obviously a premium to the price (compared to the Operators), but I’ve always…
