Nokia 7260 09/09/2004 09:00 AM

Okay, so Nokia just dropped three phones onto us, and they're pretty crazy, and by 'crazy' I mean 'sort of ugly.' I have to cop to sort of liking the Tron-style and the asymetrical design - the one round corner, one square corner 'new Nokia' look - but I have a feeling I'll be in the minority. Would it kill them to just release a nice, silver phone that you could take home to mom?

Anyway, here's the breakdown, and I'll probably go after this post in a couple of waves. The one pictured here is the Nokia 7280, which you might notice doesn't have a keypad. That's because Nokia designed it to be "sleek," "sexy," and "edgy." (I'm not joking.)

Living replica of set for TV show
"Dallas" -- in Romania

Living replica of set for TV show
"Dallas" -- in Romania 07/12/2004 02:11 PM
Blogger and journalist Emmanuelle Richard just got back from Romania, where she photoblogged these incredible snapshots< /a> of what must be the Nth great wonder of the world -- a gigantic, sprawling replica of the set of the TV show "Dallas." Even Larry Hagman said it's a perfect match of the real thing, according to Emmanuelle:

The florid theme park is not as glorious as it used to be! "Southforkscu" as locals call it was opened in 1996 in Slobozia, South-Est of Bucharest, by the King of Romanian cheddar, Ilie Alexandru: he's one these egomaniac and corrupt nouveau-riche entrepreneurs typical of post-Communist Eastern European countries. It's like a cross between an amusement park and a luxury resort. Originally, visitors could tour the ranch, ride horses, swim in the swimming pools, visit a small zoo, enjoy the lake and climb the 50 meters Eiffel Tower. And of course, spend a night in the Dallas ranch. Larry Hagman even visited! But Alexandru went to jail for fraud. A string of investors have failed to revive the place. One of them, a Russian dude even painted the ranch in ORANGE! The zoo is closed, the horses are gone... The Romanian hotel chain now in charge wants to remodel it, open a night-club. We interviewed the manager - pure Commie style, just unbelievable. I don't have much faith in this guy's management!

This artist Sean Snyder produced an exhibit about the esthetics of the place "Script For Dallas Southfork In Hermes Land, Slobozia, Romania (2001)" It went to Paris and Berlin (Link). This page contains details about the place and a pic of the ranch before the paint job. It's quite surreal, especially when you see the Eiffel Tower from the road, behind rows of cornfields.

Wireles GPS Module LD-1W 09/23/2004 07:13 AM

And last but not least (if you're reading from the bottom up; otherwise, welcome to the Nokia posts!) are these two new peripherals from Nokia, a new Nokia Wireless Headset HS-11W headset with a 6 hour talk time, and this Nokia Wireless GPS Module LD-1W that also connects to your phone or PDA via Bluetooth (the GPS may not actually be new - it seems sort of familiar - but I don't exactly recall hearing about it before). The GPS unit uses the same battery and charge plug as most Nokia phones, so you can use your existing charge to go along with it.

The headset should be out later this year, while the GPS unit isn't scheduled until Q1 2005.

Nokia announced their 1600 and 1110 models, meant to be affordable, easy-to-use and light on frills. Nokia is targeting developing nations with these models and they look well enough to suit their purpose as part of a plan to eventually offer mobile service for just $5 a month. They both feature talk times of over 5 hours and the Nokia 1600 has a 65k color screen while the Nokia 1110 uses a sunlight-friendly inverted black and white display. They're expected to retail for $105 and $85, respectively, and will be available later this year.
