My Nokia N81 review upset quite a lot of people, but I look at it as a learning experiance for Nokia. I essentially blasted the device for being over priced, under featured and having shady build quality. Now I hope you don’t read my reviews like they are scriptures from the holiest of holy books.…

Video: New Nokia Multimedia Menu
So far you’ve probably heard about the new Nokia Multimedia Menu which is present in the N81 (N81 8GB), N82 and the N85 8GB. You may wondering what’s it all about?

Lazy Weekend: S60 Themes
I rarely, if ever, install themes.

Video: Python for S60 makes phones have feelings
Less than 40 lines of code and quite a humorous way to advertise the Mobile Python Book. Check it out: The Nokia 5500 has an accelerometer and pretty soon it will be standard on all mobile devices. While the applications created using this technology are useless now and mere tech demos, they do demonstrate that…
Breaking: S60 becomes fully LAMP compatible
LAMP stands for Linux, Apache, MySQL and the P can be either Perl, PHP or Python. Everything you need to run a full web server can now be installed and run on your S60 device! What does this mean in the future? How about having a computer that is nothing more than a display, keyboard,…
The agony and the sheer ecstasy that was the Nokia N82 product launch
There is a fine line between happiness and pure unadulterated ecstasy. Nokia helped 5 bloggers from all over the world cross that chasm, with style, at the N82 product launch event in Finland. From left to right we have Devin, Mark, myself, Jeremiah and Jay. We’re standing in front of Nokia Headquarters in Espoo about…
Brief: More on the Nokia N82 – demo videos
Are you tired of hearing about the Nokia N82 yet? No? We thought not. As Stefan pointed out, the Nokia N82 seems to take better pics than the Nokia N95 and seems to have a shorter shot-to-shot time than the Nokia N95 (about the same as the Nokia N95 8GB). Check out the videos below…
