Hi Wireless Dudes... and dudettes if there are any reading here. I've just returned from a hectic conference over at Sun City and believe me it was no joke. But after 11pm at night when I had a few minutes to play I played with my new Nokia 6680... yeah.. das Monkey Dude now owns a Nokia 6680. It was a kind gesture presented to me to stop me from crying about not getting one. So a certain m'ello network sent me one last Friday. I used it for my work at Sun City to send hi-res pics first over Bt to the phone and then over VC 3G.. like zip... and wow for VC for having 3G in the bosveld. Also I've been streaming Virgin Radio on my Nokia... hell feels funny using "my" and "nokia" in the same line. All said.. this Nokia kicks ass... it truly does.

@the wanqsta: PalmOne and RIM stand a better chance of suing Nokia successfully.
Looked at those pictures and there's nothing original there...the E70 looks like a Treo/Blackberry and the E60 copies the T630 in design.
These devices are bound to be popular next year when they get released because Blokia has got this market in a chokehold and it ain't letting go anytime soon.

Halo guys... I've been playing with my Nokia 6680 and I've been streaming Virgin Radio across 3G. Brilliant stuff (see picture). Visit
http://wap.virginradio.co.uk/#menu to download. GPRS rates apply... just a reminder.

Yeah,no prizes as regards which market segments Nokia are targeting/tapping into there.
Nice try,Nokia...but no P990 cigar.
Nah,me wants da P990 thang!

@monkey man: Any word on when the two networks will be introducing subscription-based streaming services so one doesn't end up with a huge data bill.
@the wanqsta: Only Trust Sony Ericsson(Esato).

Vodafone live already (I think) offers subscription to BBC World Service. Not sure about MTN. Major trials all round... and now for my next trick... iTunes on my Walkman phone... see and it's no photoshop trick either...

More Smartphone Show show pics:
Enter the Symbian Circle....
Only ONE network was represented at the show: Orange.
No 3, no O2, no T-Mobile, and not even Tahir's network-mistress, Vodafone, were there!
I can understand Virgin,Easymobile,Tesco etc. not being there,but for the big guns to make a no-show was a bit poor,I thought.
How to make people interested in your software product and hang around your stand: Provide plenty of booze!
Check out the table in the background,as well as under it! LOL!
