Listen! This week we reminisce about the devices we’ve owned and loved over the years. We highlight a few we think were real ‘market changers’, a few lemons and speculate about who might make the next game-changer. Rafe also lets slip the secret of his magic drawers. Amongst the devices we discuss this week are [...]
Uplinq: Video of my initial reaction to Nokia’s Stephen Elop keynote
Now then, just barely 30 seconds after Stephen Elop left the stage and as the Uplinq audience began filling out into the San Diego sunshine, I decided to record my initial impressions courtesy of SocialCam on the iPHone. This involved me pointing the phone at my face and nattering at you. Normally it’s pretty easy [...]
Uplinq: Video of Nokia’s Stephen Elop on stage talking Qualcomm
For anyone wanting to get a quick glimpse of the triumphant keynote by Nokia’s CEO, Stephen Elop, at today’s Uplinq conference here in San Diego, I took a quick 60-second video right at the start.

HP, HTC, Nokia headlining at Qualcomm’s Uplinq event
Look at that list there. That tells you something about the ecosystem that Qualcomm has created in recent years. Uplinq is Qualcomm’s annual developer conference in San Diego and if my experience there last year was anything to go by, this year’s event (June 1st-2nd) is going to be fantastic. The keynote speakers themselves are [...]
Nokia’s future is looking positive today
Back in that rather exciting week in the run up to Nokia’s pretty staggering announcements prior to Mobile World Congress, I remember remarking that the company would need to start making some big decisions. I wrote that I’d like to see big, market-moving statements. Statements that would make people sit up and look — that [...]
Nokia exports all Symbian assets and 3,000 staff to Accenture
Another press release in this morning — this time from Nokia. This will interest anyone who’s been following the developments related to Symbian. It’s quite a neat move because, after it’s all finally agreed, it’ll enable Nokia to focus closely on future development rather than dealing with the Symbian saga directly. Accenture gains a huge, [...]

Nokia’s Ovi Store: Put that in your pipe and smoke it, doubters!
So I’ve been pretty vocal about Nokia’s Ovi Store. I was vocal (positively) when it launched. I was vocal (negatively) when it really began to frustrate me (silly little bugs that we letting it down) and I’ve been rather delighted at the company’s continued success with the platform ever since. I’ve been banging the drum [...]

Nokia’s new E6 and X7 keep the Symbian excitement alive
Now then, I used the word ‘excitement‘ in the title with a straight face. I don’t think it’s blow-the-doors-off excitement per se — but there’s definitely genuine interest out there in the marketplace to see what’s new from Nokia. These two devices look pretty hot. I mean that in a genuine manner. I do like [...]
