Nokia's 7700 phone will require
sidetalking
10/29/2003 01:40 PMWe wrote yesterday that our initial reaction to Nokia's new 7700
cellphone was that it looked a lot like the N-Gage. We didn't realize
how right we were. Our pal Rich Brome of PhoneScoop got confirmation
from Nokia that just as with the N-Gage, to make a phone call with the
7700 you have to hold the thing up to your head at an awkard sideways
angle (unless you want to use a headset). This bit of misguided
industrial design has quickly turned out to be one of the most widely
derided features of the N-Gage, even inspiring parody sites like
SideTalkin.com. Nokia, what were you thinking? Read...

The Nokia 7700, the Series
90 prototype phone with the touchscreen and looks of a stormtrooper
dropping has been dropped from Nokia's lineup according to the
company. Although Nokia's EVP Matti Alahuhta maintains that more
Series 90 phones will be released in the near future (especially next
year), the 7700 was likely too out there for Nokia to put their full
weight behind -- remember, this was one of the last phones bearing the
vestiges of Sidetalkin'. I'm disappointed, though; for all it's
probably failure in the market, the 7700 was clearly something unique,
and I would have liked to have played around with it, at least.
Pre-production 7700s will still be used to showcase Series 90
features, though, so don't be too surprised to see the units still
popping up here and there.

Nokia unwraps the 7700
Nokia unwraps the 7700
10/29/2003 01:14 AMNokia announced the 7700, their first Series 90 cellphone, today in
Nice. At first glance the phone, with its wedge-shaped design, reminds
us of the N-Gage, but the 7700 is designed for a lot more than playing
games. The 7700 has a large, 640x320 resolution, 65,000 color
touchscreen which can be used for watching video and surfing the web,
built-in Bluetooth, a VGA-quality digital camera, 64MB of RAM, and an
integrated FM tuner. Nokia will also offer an attachment called the
Nokia Streamer which will let the 7700 receive special digital TV
broadcasts. Expect to hear a lot about this in the coming days and
weeks. Read - MobileBurn Read - ZDNet Read - TheFeature...

Alienware Area-51m 7700 Reviewed
12/22/2004 01:36 AM
Alienware machines are overpriced and over-hyped, but
you've got to admit, when they go top-end they usually do it right.
Jason Cross over at ExtremeTech reviews their latest desktop
replacement laptop, the Area-51m 7700, and it's pretty
impressive—as it should be, since it forgoes most laptop parts
and actually uses desktop chips crammed inside its not-so-portable
12-pound chassis. What you get in the end is a laptop that should
rarely leave your desk, but provides most of the functionality of a
full-size PC. Look, it even comes with all the fans of a regular-sized
PC.

Nokia's Deadly Phones
Nokia's Deadly Phones
07/20/2004 11:05 AM
BREAKING FAKE NEWS: Gizmodo has gained access to a
confidential letter from Nokia's Chief Executive Officer detailing
how, in some cases (particularly if the user is especially gullible or
easy suggestible), Nokia phones can release a burst of electromagnetic
energy, causing heart failure, brain hemorrhaging, and in some cases
Instant Death Syndrome. In the letter, CEO Jorma Ollila makes it clear
that the problem is well know, and the "loss of life is an acceptable
risk we must face in order to sell our products."
In a related note, I have gained the ability to make genitalia
disappear using naught but the power of my mind. You'll know
it's the truth because details of my powers have been printed on
Gawker letterhead. (Thanks, Bob Pease!)

Nokia's 3220 Airtexter
06/01/2004 07:25 AM
Nokia's new 3220 is a nice
enough tri-band phone, with integrated VGA camera and all the standard
stuff, but besides looking like the bottom of a shoe, it's most known
for its optional Xpress-on funshell which adds 'airtexting' using a
persistence of vision LED array (as seen in Phillip Torrone's
POV shoes or any number of Burning Man art projects). By waving the
phone back and forth through the air, users can display short messages
that appear to be much larger than the phone itself and look something
like those LED signs that tell you how long you have to wait in queue
at the DMV. It's a fun concept, but somewhat hard to explain to those
that haven't seen it, and it brings up some interesting concepts when
it comes to heckling. With the ability to
quickly generate an LED sign with an message on it, will airtexting be
the next thing that causes cellphones to be banned from public
places?

blog (presuming you run Nokia's software and not, say, MovableType or
Wordpress). I would be happy to accept this phone into my family,

Nokia's Marketshare Continues to Fall
06/08/2004 09:07 AM
I won't bother you with all the specific numbers --
they're in there if you want to dig them out -- but suffice it to say
that Nokia, which warned on April 6th that its market share was
declining, was not joking in the least, with their overall market
share slipping to 28.9 percent from 34.6 percent last quarter, despite
an handset market that is still growing overall. Nokia has continued
to lose marketshare to companies like Samsung and Motorola who are
providing the type of handsets -- especially flipphones -- that
consumers in the hot developing markets are clamoring for.
