-- Nokia N97

N96 was never meant to be Nokia's flagship phone with its mediocre feature upgrade from N95, always sitting on a wobbly throne.

At last, Nokia unveils the "dethroner" - an N series ofcoz, S60 5th edition (touch screen os, like 5800 Xpress Music), and a slide-out keyboard.



Now THIS, is the introduction that should have been, for a Nokia touchscreen. Not like the crappy 5800 ones.



I like the fact that Nokia chose the path of making the main screen a desktop-like experience, with its widgets (clock etc) and to do stuffs, more like Windows Mobile than say, the rows of icons of iPhone.



As an N series, you can expect the usual stuffs (and better) since N95. So i won't bother mentioning all of them. Notable ones however are...

• 360 x 640 pixels, 3.5 inches, 16M colors touchscreen
• Proximity sensor for auto turn-off
• 32 GB internal memory
• 117.2 x 55.3 x 15.9-18.3 mm
• 150 g (beefy as expected)

To be release on 2009, Q2.

And... ofcoz, some pre-prepared "hands-on" video...

-- Mapple

The Simpsons' latest episode parodied everything Apple - from Steve Mobs, to Mipod, Mytunes, Myphone... and their legion of fans. It's so true till i have to ...





The screen crash is a parody of Apple's own Mac ad, back in 1984...


The irony is, Apple really does have a legion of mindless humans now, who suck up everything Apple... oh, what a dream come true.
