N82 Firmware update
The N82 has a firmware update available, latest version is now 11.0.117. A couple of other people have upgraded theirs, Rafe at AllAboutSymbian and Stefan at IntoMobileDue to my PC being offline the last two days I only managed to update my phone last night, and it all went through fine. The N82 update was the first to offer User Data Protection, and I agree with Darla Mack UDP is a beautiful thing. UDP protects data stored in the phone memory, so you don't need to reinstall everything. It is still advisable to backup, just in case, but it is a good thing to update the firmware and find all apps working, the whole menu laid out as you have set it, etc. It used to be such a pain re-installing everythi...

Nokia N78 To Be Launched In February?
I received an email yesterday from an affiliate network, which included details of forthcoming handsets to be released in the coming months. The one that caught my eye straight away was the N78! The details suggested that the handset will be released in February 08, although as usual, release dates do change. The spec listed for the handset are:• WiFi• HSDPA• 3.2 Megapixel camera• 8GB internal memory• Expandable Memory• On board maps with A-GPS• FM TransmitterThe FM transmitter is interesting, does that mean it has an FM radio, or does that mean it has one of those transmitters for sending signal to a nearby FM radio? Also, 8GB internal memory *plus* expandable memory? The design of the phone is a standard monoblock design, similar to the N82, and is black. Keypad design wasn't clear. The...

Nokia Urbanista Diaries
An excellent idea, this. Four intrepid bloggers sent round the world with a Nokia N82, recording their journey. Fantastic.The whole project is a Nokia sponsored global relay race, where each contestant is placed 'somewhere in the world' and will encounter situations and challenges where they can use the N82 to document and share their experiences, as well as locate the next blogger to pass the baton/phone on to.The four brave explorers taking part in this adventure are Devin Balentina from the Nokia Guide, Ryan Gallagher from CameraToss, Ms Jen from Black Phoebe and Jose R.A.M from MyNokiaBlogThere is a dedicated site here where you can follow their progress, plus I have installed a widget at top right of my blog where you can also keep track of the Urbanista's progress.And finally, in conjunction...

Back to Business

So, after a long Christmas and New Year break we're back to business. Coming up in a few weeks we have the 3GSM conference in Barcelona, which I am fortunate enough to be attending, and I'm hoping we'll have some NSeries handsets confirmed, like the N78 and N96 to go along with the leaked news of the new ESeries phones due.Right now, I've got my hands full of phones. As well as the N82 which I continue to use every day, I have a Nokia N81 to play around with, thanks to the guys at Womworld, I have a Nokia E51 to look over supplied by Nokia and curiosly the other day I came across a Nokia 6600. Back in the day the 6600 was one of my favourite...

Avvenu Available Again
I wrote back before Christmas how Nokia had purchased Avvenu, the program that lets you access your PC remotely. The downside to this was the service became suspended to all but those in the US There are alternative options for remote PC access, such as Orb but I've never liked the PC interface for Orb since they upgraded a while back, although the phone interface works well.Good news, I received an email this morning the Avvenu service is available again. Click here for a list of countries where the service can be used. I'm expecting accessing the PC from my phone to be a lot easier in the coming months as Nokia develop the Avvenu service further.I'm off now to upgrade the Avvenu software on my ...
