Skype on the Nokia N800By Bosxs on June 29, 2007 | No Comments
Mobile device blogger jkontherun has just been in NYC for the Digital Experience Show.
Whilst he was there he had a quick look at the Nokia booth and was very pleased to see a demonstration of Skype on the N800, available to download sometime in July.
RogerS, of Internet Tablet Talk, was keen to note that there is a “Buy Skype credit” option in the picture, which may mean calls to normal landlines and cellphones. Are you excited or are you doubtful? Make a comment for jkontherun or join in the Internet Tablet Talk discussion to let them know.
Quick update now that I’ve braved the 100-mile return drive and I’m headed for bed: I forgot to address the possibility of using the N800 integrated web-cam for Skype video calls. Based on my conversations with the Nokia representatives, it doesn’t appear that this Skype release will support it. In the future? That’s a definite maybe, but it’s also purely speculative on my part…

Nokia mobile phone conveying fragranceBy Bosxs on June 26, 2007 | No Comments
Nokia mobile phone conveying fragrance
Conceptional Nokia model „Scentsory Cellphone“ is a great example exposing how far could the ideas of designers go.The main idea is that besides the usual communicational/multimedial functions it can emit odour. Thanks to the special sensors (which were created according the newest nanotechnologies) the device is able to catch the fragrance (as well as the colours, illumination and temperature) of the place in which the person is at that time and later he can render this information to the other person. The conveying fragrances may revive the old reminiscence or cause pleasant emotions. This mobile phone has no real practical importance, unless you are working in a cosmetic industry.
The device is also exclusive in it’s specific design recalling some figure made of paper. The mobile phone can only receive calls in its standard form, half – opened it becomes a phone of fragrances, totally opened it may function as a connection device in the form or triangle. Unique „Nokia Scentsory Cellphone“ conception is to get the great attention and praise for the originality of the community, though it is just the question if “Nokia” will ever release such an odd device.

Nokia Edging in on the iPhone?By Bosxs on June 26, 2007 | No Comments
Cell-phone maker Nokia announced more distribution options today for its enterprise-grade smartphone. Through a deal with Brightpoint and Ingram Micro, IT departments will be able to buy fleets of the Eseries smartphones. In addition to the standard wireless carrier retail venues, individual users can now purchase these devices from Dell.com (a deal that was announced last week), Gateway, and Mobileplanet.com.The timing of Nokia’s two announcements seems designed to steal some of Apple’s thunder from the Friday launch of the iPhone. But are the devices even in the same space?As Information Week’s Eric Zeman points out, the Nokia press release is obviously geared towards enterprise users. Emphasizing the phones’ business-class device security, ability to handle email attachments, and integration with corporate telephony systems, Nokia’s Eseries sounds nothing like the consumer-oriented iPhone.
But tucked in the press release far below the benefits to your company’s IT department are features that, considering the timing, sound more like the iPhone.
By also featuring cameras, video capabilities and music players, and giving users access to travel, weather, news, and financial information, Nokia Eseries devices let customers bridge their work and personal lives.
Clearly, the iPhone wasn’t created to be an enterprise device. But with Apple touting the messaging capabilities and contact- and calendar-synching (yes, even with Outlook), there could be crossover in certain segments of the potential iPhone audience with the Nokia devices. By promoting the business benefits of its smartphones along with the iPhone-like bells and whistles (and the intangible cool factor that goes along with them), is Nokia trying to get into Apple’s kitchen with the prosumer audience?

Dell Offering Nokia Devices and AccessoriesBy Bosxs on June 17, 2007 | No Comments
I told you about it back in April, and confirmed more details in May, and I’m pleased to let you know that Dell is now offering several high-end unbranded Nokia handsets, as well as a TON of accessories. Here’s the link showing it all, and the prices aren’t that bad, either.Highlights include the Nokia N80ie at $447, the E61i (which was only officially launched in the US a week ago) at $423, and a bevy of accessories, including the SU-8W Bluetooth keyboard and the Navkit for the N800. Head on over if you’ve got some room on your Dell Credit Card, and spend away.This is huge, in my opinion. I’ve actually had a few conversations about it recently, mostly in regards to the struggling E-series division. Think hard about this Dell distribution deal. You can now get E61i’s through Dell. Why does that matter? Because this allows Nokia to position themselves within some of the largest corporations on the planet. For instance, Time Warner Cable Media Sales, of which I am an employee. We are a Dell-only shop. Servers, printers, laptops, desktops, the whole shebang. However, for Blackberries and cellphones, we’re not. And there’s a ton of things that our IT director hates about Blackberries. But now that he can switch us all to E61i’s instead of Blackberries? That’s HUGE. I would imagine that Dell’s got their sales people up to speed with this, particularly with B2B. It opens up a whole other market.
