Nokia Booklet 3G Review
The Nokia Booklet 3G is one of the nicest netbooks you can buy, with a build that aspires to be a 10-inch MacBook Pro. But it's still just a netbook, and therein lies the problem. More »

The Nokia N900 Isn't A Phone, It's A Psychotic Shapeshifter
While we've been sitting, waiting, wishing for the Nokia N900, we missed something very important: It's not a phone. As this Nokia ad shows, it's actually a psychotic shapeshifter. At least I think that's the message they're trying to send. More »

Google and the Deadly Power of Data
Today, as soon as Google showed off its beta GPS navigator, the stocks of Garmin, TomTom and other companies in that industry fell into the toilet. It's hard to compete with free Google apps, but that's not why they're screwed... More »

Nokia N97 Firmware 2.0 Valiantly Attempts to Make It Less Godawful
Hello, Nokia N97 owners who ignored our heartfelt advice to look elsewhere for a smartphone. (You couldn't go with the vastly superior E71?) Firmware 2.0 is out, and it supposedly—hopefully—makes life better. Kinetic scrolling! [DailyMobile via Engadget]

Nokia Patent Gives Another Glimpse Into World's Touchy-Feely Future
Gadget patents are a strange lot. Is that dual-handed interface for an iTablet, or something else? Will my remote really Tweet someday? Probably not, but this patent from Nokia had me thinking of a touch- and, more importantly, pressure-sensitive future: More »

Waiting for a Nokia N900? Keep Waiting
Apparently the handset has been delayed until November. The good news, as BGR points out, is that the n900 supports T-Mobile 3G. So assuming Project Black means cheap plans, the timing could actually work out well for prospective buyers. [BGR]

Told Ya Nokia Was Doomed
While most of Nokia's billion dollar loss comes from its network equipment side, it's worth noting their global marketshare has tumbled again, down to the 35 percent, from 41 percent last quarter. It used to be over 50. Anyone wanna guess where it's stopping? [Nokia]

Nokia's Very Nice (Net) Booklet 3G Is $299 Plus Your Soul on AT&T
Surprise, Nokia's Booklet 3G—a very nice netbook—is just gonna be $299 on Oct. 22, way below previous estimates of like a bajillion dollars. Granted, you're signing your soul over to AT&T for $60/month to get it that cheaply. More »

Nokia Booklet 3G Hands On: Nice Netbook, But How Much?
The Nokia Booklet 3G has touched down on US soil. The cell phone manufacturer's first laptop is made of sturdy stuff and is mobile broadband/SIM-card friendly. I'd buy one if the price is right. But chances are it's not. More »

Nokia's Next OS, Maemo 6, Could Look Like This
The N900 runs the slick new Linux-based Maemo 5 OS, but Nokia is already dishing up details on Maemo 6. Expected in late 2010, it'll introduce a portrait-mode, support multitouch and capacitive touchscreens, and have a desktop filled with widgets. More »

Unfortunate Corporate Slogans, Nokia Edition: TAG YOUR IT!
No, this slogan isn't a typo, and yes, the English-speaking Nokia reps were extremely embarrassed about it. The best part? The phrase is written everywhere at this booth, from t-shirts to rebranded cans of soup. More idiom-related wackiness post-jump. More »

Nokia's 3G Booklet Netbook Spotted at Best Buy With Less Atrocious $600 Price Tag
The one way Nokia could doom their well-styled, long-lasting, 3G-and-GPS-having Booklet netbook? By punching it in the mouth with an $800+ price, like they did in the UK. A Best Buy inventory shot points lower, but not by much. More »

Nokia Booklet 3G Will Be a Best Buy Exclusive in the U.S.

Nokia Booklet 3G Netbook Unboxed on Camera
Nokia's Booklet 3G still has no U.S ETA, but it's an interesting 10.1-incher with Windows 7, 3G, and a claimed 16-hour battery life. And though I've no idea what this (Greek?) gentleman is saying, here's what's in the box: More »

Nokia Erdos Is Carved Out of a Single Piece of Stainless Steel

Nokia N900 U.S. Preorders Are Go: $650 No Contract
The N900 is up for preorder, and Nokia is throwing in its BH-703 Bluetooth headset to sweeten the deal. That's beats €500 ($710) in Europe. The N900 packs some hot specs, but remember it needs T-Mobile's network for 3G. [Nokia] More »

Nokia Booklet 3G and N900 Will Come to America, Absolutely No ETA
In a U.S. press briefing this morning, Nokia said that its Booklet 3G and the N900 will eventually be sold in the US of A. The company would not detail if they would be sold through carriers or simply unlocked (and in Nokia's U.S. based flagship stores). More »

And the Stuttgart craziness begins. The X6 is like a slimmed down 5800 XpressMusic, (3.2-inch touchscreen, 5-megapixel camera), while the X3 (2.2-inch non-touchscreen) has a slide-out numeric keypad, and is the first Series-40 OS phone to be Ovi Store-enabled. More »

Nokia N900 Maemo Is a Phone, Makes the N97 Look Silly
There's been a lot of talk about the N900 Maemo "tablet", especially about how it looks suspiciously like a phone. And even if Nokia (inexplicably) plays it down in their now-official announcement, that's exactly what it is: an amazing-looking handset. More »

Has Nokia Fallen Out of Lust With Symbian?
According to Reuters, yes, and all because of some slutty-slut-slut Linux OS named Maemo, said to be the company's new high-end handset platform. Nokia's first Maemo ~~indiscretion~~ handset's said to be landing next week, and probably looks something like this. More »

Nokia ARM-Based Smartbook To Follow Booklet 3G?
It was only on Monday that Nokia confirmed its first laptop, but now DigiTimes suggests the Fins may use either Compal or Foxconn to build an ARM-based smartbook for 2010. If true, my guess is it'll run Maemo 5. More »

Leaked Shots Show N97 Mini Officially a Bad Idea, N900 Looks Pretty Good
"Hey guys, let's take the N97, not improve or actually shrink it in any way, and call it the N97 Mini." At least, that's what these leaked official shots of the N97 Mini show. The N900 though, still looks decent. More »

Nokia 5230 Has 3G and GPS, Cheapest Nokia Touch Phone Yet
With one eye on the $99 iPhone, Nokia's budget ($213 before carrier subsidies) 5230 has 3G and GPS features not found on the 5530 XpressMusic, but lacks that phone's Wi-Fi, and has a pared-down 2-megapixel camera. More »
