Goodness me what a shit week it’s been for Nokia. Yet amongst the dross, there are glimmers of light. Glimmers.

Well that’s the dust settling after NokiaWorld 2010 and I am left feeling entirely empty. Thank you for absolutely nothing, Nokia.

I’m looking forward to seeing what Nokia delivers to the marketplace today. I’m excited at the possibilities. However I still retain a sad-reality-view. Today, Nokia needs to deliver unmitigated brilliance. It’s a binary situation. Either it’s brilliant or it’s not. It’s that simple. I am quietly fearful that the company will vomit out a range […]

Got a mail in from Expansys this afternoon to tell me that the Nokia N900 media tablet — the darling of the Nokia World conference last week — is ready for pre-order at £499.99. Yours to have from the 19th of October. Provided there are a few more apps added for the device (and that […]
Whilst at Nokia World in Stuttgart last week, Rafe Blandford from All About Symbian and I got together to produce a tour of the conference floor. I always like to have a look around conference stalls to see what’s on offer. Often you’ll come across some real gems. It’s also worthwhile done together with colleagues […]

Nokia N900 Maemo demonstration video
It is looking RATHER good:
Every year Nokia does a very big conference, usually somewhere in Europe, by the name of Nokia World. The cream of the company’s techies, product managers, marketing geniuses and executives arrive in one place for a few days.
