All the Nokia news these days seems to be revolving around Microsoft and Windows Phone 7, but for good reason. Besides, we’ve been hearing all kinds of things about the Symbian Foundation closing up shop, shutting down its website and Nokia picking up the slack where the foundation leaves off. So it probably doesn’t come…
Nokia’s flagship enterprise focused device, the E7, has finally come to the United States after an excruciatingly long wait time. This thing was announced back in September 2010, so that’s what … over half a year for the boat to go from Finland to America? You can pickup the E7 from Nokia’s very own online…
The Nokia, Windows Phone 7 deal has the potential to be a major game-changer and the world’s largest handset maker said that the negotiations are “on schedule.” That’s right, despite the hubbub about the Nokia, Windows Phone 7 deal, Microsoft and the handset maker haven’t finalized the deal and signed the major contracts.

Nokia and Apple have been fighting over much more than smartphone market share over the past few years. The Finnish handset maker, upset that they couldn’t come up with something as innovative and technologically advanced as the iPhone, decided that the best course of action to show the new kid on the block who’s boss…
Americans might find this hard to believe, but in Finland people usually take one month off during the summer. We’re not making this up, people get four weeks of paid holiday to do whatever they want. You’d have to live here for one whole year and experience what six months of winter can do to…

An untold sum of money was spent developing this new typeface, and what makes it slightly interesting is…
This time last year Nokia decided to migrate their product naming scheme from a four digit number to a letter followed by a single digit. Has it made things easier? Not really since you have devices out on the market like the C1, but you have to know the difference between the C1-01 and C1-02,…
