Nokia 7500b gets FCC approval

AT&T no longer selling the Nokia E62
Good bye and good riddance. I’m a Nokia fan to the bone, but the E62 is the perfect example of what happens when you let an American operator tweak your device. First of all the E62 lacks WiFi, AT&T didn’t want people getting content onto their devices without paying for their data plan. Second it…
Steve Jobs commits a sin: Calls Nokia Swedish

Review: Nokia 6500 Classic, Finland finally diets
Mobile Review is headed by my number one man in Moscow, Eldar Murtazin. His reviews are published in Russian first and the English versions lag about a week or two depending on length and who he has translating for him. While I doubt you can read Russian, I know I sure as hell can’t, I…
