Nokia N93i ??? Posted on 24 November 2006
The Nokia N93 is a very appreciated and capable personal multimedia computer. However, despite the fact that Nokia has not yet acknowledged the possible manufacture of the Nokia N93i model, if rumors are to be given any credit, Nokia could be progressing far beyond the previous models. Some spies even claim to have photographs of the new N93i model.
The case of this specific personal multimedia computer so far appears to be a mirror or reflective type of material. If sources are to be believed, however, an announcement about the new model might come as early as December 1, 2006. The estimated release date for this rumored phone is said to be within the first quarter of 2007. Some of the specifications are set to be the same as the N93 model, including the camera lens and camera capabilities. There are joystick control capabilities, but further analysis of the model may need to wait until consumers are able to get information from Nokia.


Game Developers Conference Posted on 19 November 2006
In 2007, from March 5th to March 9th the Game Developers Conference will be taking place. This year, Nokia is one of the main sponsors when it comes to the Mobile section of the Game Developers Conference. Once again, the N-Gage platform will be in use for this round of sponsorship. The release of the Next Generation platform for Nokia gaming is well timed in relation to the sponsorship deal as their new platform is due out within the first six months of the 2007 year. Nokia’s gaming platform will launch over the smart phones of the S60 3rd edition.
Many people are looking forward to Nokia’s new gaming platform. Expectations set Nokia to benefit even further with their S60s, which are already extremely popular, and in part due to the fact that the games they offer will be on a free trial basis. Most spectators of the market also note that cell phone gaming is advancing and growing in popularity far quicker than that of video game consoles.
Nokia will also continue to offer convenience to their users when the gaming trial period is up. This is due to the fact that they are anticipated to have very flexible billing. Whether a consumer wants to purchase games with phone credit, on their monthly phone bill or with a credit card, consumers will be able to purchase the games any where at any time, all but guaranteeing an interesting year for Nokia.


Nokia N97 Rumours Posted on 19 November 2006
We have a new rumor looming on the horizon, and the Nokia N97 is looking very interesting to consumers. This multimedia computer is supposedly capable of performing a number of different tasks, which will be elaborated on further as the proposed release date draws nearer. The Nokia N97 is not confirmed yet, but sources have disclosed certain specifications about the model.

Not only can the N97 provide the user with 4 or more hours of talk time as well as at least 24 hours of playback music capabilities, but it can also take pictures, play FM radio stations, and take pictures with flash capabilities and record videos. As if this were not enough, there are also speculations that the N97 also includes 20 GB HDD. This personal multimedia computer will be in heavy contention with Nokia’s N95 model, and we will have to analyze the N97 when more information is learned about the model.
