Another typo in a Nokia article

Recently I have founds a few typos in Nokia's articles and even in an official publication.....

the latest one is in here http://uk.biz.yahoo.com/13062007/399/technophile-love-nightless-nights.html

it is www.widsets.com and NOT www.widset.com

I actually found the typo last week on Thursday while reading the Financial Times on plane on my way to Helsinki...I felt weird thinking about all those people who went to their browsers and typed in the wrong address

hopefully more people used google which provides the www.widsets.com address even if you type wiset



btw if you have an s60 symbian Nokia phone GO NOW TO www.widsets.com

Dell selling Nokias...unlocked

This is a great strategic move to break the monopoly power of US carriers, but also to empower US consumers with some of the best smartphones in the world that can really make life simpler.

I believe that in the long term consumers end up paying much more for mediocre cellphones and it is only an illusion that prices are lower.

Finally US consumers will have a choice when they will have to buy an first generation iPhone with only 2 megapixel camera and no 3G nor GPS versus a N95 with 5 megapixel, GPS, HSDPA and more....

Here is the preview...



if you don't believe me go to the Dell website and type Nokia in the search box

Issues with Nokia's calendar and time zone changes

Ok I'm really sick of this

I have a huge problem with my Nokia (I guess it happens with other phones though I couldn't care less)

which I solved in a way

basically I use the calendar application a lot

then I travel as well

so I change the time zone

why the hell the whole calendar changes????

If I am in Helsinki and I type on my phone an event for the day after at h.20 in Milano and I fly there the day after......then if I have the bright idea of changing the time zone the event will be moved (one hour earlier/later doesn't matter)
why the hell is that!!!!

one solution is that u never change the time zones but only the clock

another solution is that Nokia provides the opportunity to specify a time zone and location for a certain event.




Now I was just synchronizing my Mac with my Nokia and one event was moved of one hour for no reason.....drives me mad


did anyone out there experience the same type of issues?

Do you think they are useful?

How would you mobilize and motivate millions of people to use them?

N95 Commercial...great in English...wonder how it is going to work in Italian



I love this ad though now that I was just back in Italy I saw a N95 ad on a magazine which does not really that much sense to me, or at least not as much as in English.



Also I'm sorry but can "It's what computers have become" translate to "il computer multimediale"?
Wouldn't "E' ciĆ² che i computers sono diventati" be better?
