Don’t know how I missed this one being such a Nokia fan.On Tuesday, Nokia and Yahoo! announced that they will soon start embedding in some Nokia phones (6680, 6681, 6630 and the N70) Yahoo! messaging, search and Web browsing software. The deal is targetted initially at Europe:
“We’ll see the fruits of this partnership initially [...]
Nokia launch N-series handsets
Hmmm maybe I should wait for one of these rather than going for my 6680 upgrade. These new smartphones from Nokia look fantastic and have a good specification. Three handsets have been launched:
The Nokia N90 multimedia, the first camera phone equipped with Carl Zeiss optics. Boasts a 2 megapixel camera and VHS resolution [...]

Moblie music downloads to surpass iTunes?
Fantastic article on CNet featuring some great quotes from music industry sources. It seems that Apple’s intransigence over pricing and DRM is annoying a lot of industry sources and they would love to get more control over the industry. Problem is, iTunes has 70% of the PC market so it appears that the [...]

Coming Soon: Connected 6680 review
I’m getting lots of traffic from people looking for information on the Nokia 6680, which I think is the ultimate smartphone, and not the Treo 650 etc.
I checked yesterday with Vodafone and I’ll be getting my 6680 upgrade in 2nd week in May as the phone is due for release 5th May. I’ll write [...]
Smartphones to replace Digital cameras?
I’ve been so impressed with the camera on my 6630 that when I jet I’m off to Jamaica in a couple of weeks I’ve decided to not take a traditional camera, just my Nokia 6630. I might even Moblog a few shots although it might be too expensive.
I’ve even ordered a 256Mb memorycard [...]
Problems with Nokia 6630?
Ok my phone is playing up again. All my calls are going straight through to my answerphone and I’m also having problems making calls. Looks like Vodafone are going to have to replace my Nokia 6630 again - this will be the 2nd time.
I’ve heard from a couple of people that this handset [...]
Music Downloads over 3G: Who is using this service?
Who purchases full-track downloads on 3G?
Vodafone announced last week that they are expanding their catalogue to 500,000 full music tracks following the success of thi initial service where since November 2004, over one million tracks have been downloaded.
I’m a bit sceptical about this service after trying it and I also think the download numbers have [...]
Blackberry’s - Why do people need them?
Found a great article on CNN about ‘How Blackberry conquered the world’. I’m constantly amazed by the growth in the usage of these devices. Blackberry have done a great job in my view of getting key individuals to use their device so that other people jump on the bandwagon and want one as [...]

Microsoft’s Mobile Video Download Service: Will it still be there in 12 months?
I’ve just been reading about Microsoft’s new mobile video download service.
The service allows users to watch daily television programming, entertainment clips and other digital content for viewing on Windows Mobile-based devices.
Rather than being a OTA service, users have to download specially formatted content to their PCs and then transfer it to devices running [...]
