the nokia 9500 communicator today. That phone has wifi lan.. now it sounds like no big deal at first but think about it WI-FI LAN. Why carry a notebook with you. really. you can do networking like a pc would between other computers basic peer to peer networking. well done nokia so far the other phones only support wifi which allows them to connect to the inter net using a wireless hotspot or access pount but not lan functionality.

Next big event. Nokia once again. Though late, second to sony erricson Nokia China makes its appearance on the uiq symbian os phone market with the N5708 UIQ phone. This pone really is the benq 31 with a few software tweeks and nokia branding it features a 1.3 mp digital camera, sd card expanson slot, usb port, symbian os version 7, uiq version 2.1 and hand writing recognition.

The benq 31 from which this nokia model was taken. I expected some orginal work from you nokia. non the less it looks good. I hope to hear good things about this phoens performance. Why it doesn't have wifi and the sd/mmc card port hotswappable [ removeable without taking out batter ] I'm not so sure.

Wat you mean nokia regaining the fame?!?!
Nokia never lost the fame :argue

Nokia to me is and will continue to be the greatest cell phone manufacturer around. Nuff said

Nokia ontop for ease of use/user friendly ness and good reception not pushing technology to its limits. They are never generally the first to do anything never the one to instigage or initiate something huge inthe mobile marke, Well thats how it is to me. I mean imagine a company like that just getting a piece of the uiq market. come on.

Oh well, you are telling the truth still, they arent really the innovators, but they do what the do better than everybody else. and i will never buy another fone if it isnt named nokia. (unless somebody releases something wicked)
