The Brightest and Loudest Smartphones in the World Run Symbian… For Some Reason

What do the brightest and loudest smartphones in the world have in common? They’re both made by Nokia. And they both run Symbian. Say what?

Motorola Wants Some of That Windows Phone 7 Pie That Nokia’s Eating

Sanjay Jha, Motorola’s CEO, has commented that he wishes Motorola could get a similar deal to Nokia’s with Microsoft, which sounds funny as the general opinion is that since they adopted Android, Motorola’s got their shit together in recent years.

Nokia’s U.S. Customers Will Only Get WP7 Devices

Realizing that U.S. consumers have by and large abandoned Symbian, Nokia will no longer release Meego or Symbian-based devices in the U.S. That means no N9 over here, unless it’s running Windows Phone 7.

An iPhone 4 That’ll Light Your Desk

This replica looks like a ridiculously large iPhone 4, similar to the ginormous fan case we saw recently. But this knockoff Apple product isn’t for cooling, it’s for lighting your desk.

The World’s Largest Stop Motion Video Is a Life-Sized Masterpiece

If Nokia phones are good for anything, it’s to take pictures with. And like the world’s smallest stop motion video before it, the world’s LARGEST stop motion video was shot using a Nokia N8 (and a super tall crane).
