On Monday I posted about Nokia's announcement of the Comes With Music launch in the UK. Yesterday, Music Ally posted some details from Carphone Warehouse about the service. From this I learned a few things worth commenting on:The service will initially be available only to pre-paid customers. This is smart. I can't put my finger on the cite right now but I have seen data that show pre-paid

I genuinely believe there will be a lot of interesting developments in the mobile industry during the next 5 years that will come from a number of innovative startups, but it’s hard not to get equally excited about the power play between the main vendors and mobile OS distributors. I’m looking forward to the competition between Apple / iPhone / App Store, Google with the massively potential Android (and “Chrome for Mobile”?), Microsoft with its ...

Nokia's much rumored, much anticipated N96 slider has just had its debut—in Europe. It's on sale for €550, or around $798 (yes, this is obviously the unsubsidized price—before tax, too). And though there's no firm info on the US launch timing or prices, this is a good indicator it's on its way. [Nokia]

Nokia has released its new N-Series phone, the N96, in Europe. It’s like the Swiss army knife of phones — a very expensive Swiss army knife — in that it does a lot of things, except one: It won’t allow you to make VoIP calls. Apparently some of the more well-known VoIP services, such as Fring and Truphone, will eventually work on this device that costs nearly $1,000 (550 euros + tax), but for now ...

Already available in Nokia’s Series 40 devices, Nokia has ported the enhanced calculator application over for S60 devices and you can now download it for free from the betalabs. The enhanced calculator is a java application that gives you more maths function. The latest version will only runs properly in devices with QVGA screen (240×320 or 320×240 pixels), in other cases you will get an error message and the application will be closed. Other than ...

分类: 移动电话, 便携音像 作为消费者,我们最喜欢看到竞争场面出现,无论是浏览器市场还是手机应用软件,这次诺基亚干上了苹果iTunes,这将是个免费服务,名字叫Nokia Comes With Music,音乐任我行,首先在英国登陆,之后会在2009年登陆亚洲和欧洲市场,同时诺基亚已经集合了Universal Music, Sony BMG 和Warner Music等唱片公司,包括正在谈判的EMI,总共将提供210万首音乐资源。虽然号称免费,但大家都知道羊毛出在羊身上,服务费实际已计入手机价格中。未捆绑该服务的Nokia 5310 XpressMusic售价约为70-80欧元(约合人民币700至800美元)。诺基亚手机用户在购买手机的第一年里不受任何限制下载音乐,一年以后,用户还可保存所下载曲目。不过很可惜的是,诺基亚在这音乐文件当中加入了DRM,也就是说只能在你的手机和电脑上播放,这无疑是个错误的决定,虽然我们知道这样的DRM肯定会被破解掉,因此这个服务在开始之初,就显得有点点遗憾。10月2日将是这个服务的新闻发布会。[Via mocoNews]Read -- FTRead -- Guardian Read -- Nokia press release 引用来源 | 此文章网址 | 转寄此文章 | 回应

Nokia’s Comes With Music will launch in the UK next month, before spreading to the Continent and to Asia next year. Comes With Music, you may remember, is Nokia’s scheme to include music from the top record companies (less EMI, for now) with its cellphones, slowly getting the company into the Apple-dominated music business. Nokia has not given any specific price points for Comes With Music Cellphones, but said that pay-as-you-go consumers had indicated to ...

While no pricing info is being bandied about, the "news" does see it landing during the November timeframe. Rogers, FIDO's parent company and only GSM competition -- at least for now -- has apparently passed on this little QWERTY ...

GLOBAL - Over the past couple of weeks we've been pointing our telescope at a constellation of smart mobile apps that were hand-picked to receive Nokia support as part of the 2008 Forum Nokia Innovation Series initiative. An elite group of developers were plucked with the fruits of their labour placed under the microscope for scrutiny and ultimately celebration. Here are the highlights, with videos of each app in action...Whrrl blends location services with people ...

It’s a landmark project, not only because it has involved the continued and successful collaboration and dedication of a huge team across many disciplines and worlds. But because it is another indication of the way in which what I do is changing for the better. The best way to describe a viNe is like this: at the ...

分类: 移动电话, 定位产品[原文连接/翻译:Judy] Nokia和寂寞星球(Lonely Planet)合作推出手机旅游导览服务。Nokia的手机用户在下载免费的Maps 2.0后,就能直接在手机上购买下载寂寞星球的旅游导览,每份导览要价美金13.99元(约人民币95元),较实体版旅游导览(美金18元,约人民币123元)便宜。 目前寂寞星球一共推出了100本不同的手机旅游导览,未来也将持续推出,很多Nokia手机都内置GPS接收器,两者相互结合,出国旅游,就不在局限于书上导览,而能升级到实际的方向指引,当然,还是有些人觉得写满了笔记和记号的传统旅游书是无法取代的。 这是寂寞星球第二次与手机业者合作,之前他们曾在iPhone推出各国习惯用语手册,这次和Nokia的合作,则是他们首次将他们最受欢迎的旅游导览书籍与智能型手机结合。 未来随着越来越多内置GPS的手机出现,这项服务迟早会推展到其它厂牌的手机,适地性服务前景也一片看好,预计在接下的几年内,50%的新手机都会内置GPS。 想要将旅游导览下载到Nokia手机的话,需要先安装Maps 2.0,点击连接即可查询你的手机是否支持此功能,下载完成后,打开Maps 2.0,并点选「extras」,然后点选「guides」,即可下载导览,另外也能在电脑安装Nokia Maps Loader,直接将导览下载到电脑里,如果你正身在国外,建议直接使用电脑购买下载旅游导览,以节省国外手机漫游费。引用来源 | 此文章网址 | 转寄此文章 | 回应
