Nokia's take on '20s glamour 09/09/2004 04:50 PM

Nokia on Thursday announced three new camera phones that it says are inspired by the style of the 1920s. One model in particular is described by the Finnish phone giant as "Garbo-esque" in its design character (that would be the 7270). All three handsets are shown here in art released by the company.

Joe Bussard is the self-proclaimed king of record collectors (pre-war 78s, of course). He'll even make you a tape. According to Bussard, jazz died in 1933. Were the '20s America's golden age? Great art, architecture, movies, and even coins.

nokia-chilling_small.jpg imageBREAKING 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_3220.jpg imageNokia'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?

Weighing in at 97 grams and just 20mm thick, the 6230 is plenty small considering all the features it has: an integrated VGA quality digital camera which can record video clips, a 65,000 color display, Bluetooth, and an MMC expansion card slot.

symbian_top-logo.gif imageAnd while we're on the subject of Symbian, Reuters has confirmed that a shares redistribution and rights issue will rearrange the corporate control of Symbian, keeping Nokia's stake in the company under the controlling 50 percent. So yeah, that's boring, but probably good -- it means that Symbian won't become a Nokia-only company, and the other participants, like founder Psion, Sony Ericsson, Siemens, Samsung, and Matsushita will get their fair share of attention. It also means Psion is about 92 million dollars richer, money they plan to use to expand their staff.

Nokia's Marketshare Continues to Fall 06/08/2004 09:07 AM

Nokia
LogoI 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.

This is also the first phone that ships with Nokia's 'Lifeblog' application, designed to be an all-in-one moblogging tool for uploading pictures and entries easily onto your blog (presuming you run Nokia's software and not, say, MovableType or Wordpress). I would be happy to accept this phone into my family, sharing our love and laughter.

We 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...
