December 26th, 2008

The guide works for most devices and should help you to get the best out of your handset. Check it out, or pass it on and make sure that ‘new shiny toy’ (as Mark puts it) gets off to a great start.
What do you think? Any other tips you would offer new Nokia users? Head over and leave your comments.

Some thoughts on Nokia Friend View
December 16th, 2008
Mark Guim over at The Nokia Blog has been looking at Nokia location and micro-blogging tool Friend View and noted a few issues with the service.
The main problem he has found is that not enough of his close friends are using Friend View for it to be worth his time. In the comments Andrew also points out that he doesn’t like the thought of his girlfriend knowing his every movement(!) Have you tried using Friend View? Do you have something to add to this discussion? Share your thoughts here.

Nokia issued with a ‘to do’ list
November 24th, 2008
The Renegade Fanboy has come up with a wish list of improvements and innovations that he’s looking for Nokia to implement in the coming weeks and months.
Some of them are to do with devices and limiting the number of releases in each year. He reckons that there should be two N- and two Eseries per 12 months. He also implores the manufacturer to ensure that all devices are made released with USB charging. Many of the suggestions are quite enlightening, so head over and see what you think, then add any more you’re desperate to see.

Better box experience please, Nokia – users speak
November 19th, 2008
Darla Mack, the Mobile Diva, has voiced an opinion that is held by other major players, that of the ‘out of box’ device experience not quite being what it should be (she refers to her N96, but it could apply across the board).
She lists a few things that could be done to help users - a welcome card urging new owners to register their device, which once done introduces new services such as Ovi to the user. She’d also like to see the manufacturer citing pages and forums giving users hints and tips on how to fine tune their device. Ricky Cadden has chipped in on the comment stream mentioning a simple ‘Quick S60’ guide for newcomers.
What would you like to see in a device’s box? Any ideas to ease the user experience? Head over and join in the comments.

Water damage on your Nokia? Don’t panic
November 13th, 2008
Rafe unfortunately let his E71 slip into a ‘raging torrent’ recently, and as unhappy as this was, it gave him a chance to post on All About Symbian about how to minimise the chances of damage to the device.
The first things you’d do are the obvious ones such as remove the battery and all cards and external detachable components, but then there are some tips that will improve the chances of survival. Placing the device in a container of rice, in an airing cupboard, for three days will give the best hope, but if it has been in contact with a sticky or salty drink, rinsing it with clean water wouldn’t be the first thing you’d think to do, would it?
From the comment stream, plenty of others have had this experience, and if you’ve got any tips to share, head over and add to the list.

Nokia BH-503 headset on show
November 7th, 2008
Over on Comeswithmusic.org - a site dedicated to news on Nokia’s ‘all you can eat’ music service - they’ve posted a quick review of the BH-503 bluetooth headset.
Overall it’s a mixed review with a thumbs up for ease of pairing the headset with a device, but not so much love for the overall sound quality. Further, while the buttons on the side of the headset are a nice addition for ease of use, they aren’t hugely practical as you can’t see them while they are on the side of your head.
What are your thoughts? Are you a BH-503 owner? Jump over to leave your comments.
