Nokia 6700 Classic With 5 MP Camera, GPS and Nokia Maps

Nokia 6700 classic with 5 Megapixel camera is the latest S40 device by Nokia, considered as a modern successor of the popular Nokia 6300 and expected to become a bestseller as its forerunner.

The feature-rich specs sheet of the Nokia 6700 classic will serve you with stuff such as a 5 megapixel autofocus camera, GPS navigation with Nokia Maps and the awesome Nokia WebKit Open Source Browser, previously available only on the Symbian S60 smartphones.

At only 11mm of thickness, the Nokia 6700 sports a full metal keymat, a 2.2-inch 16M color QVGA display and supports both quad-band GSM and tri-band UMTS networks (plus HSDPA up to 10 Mbps).

The Nokia 6700 classic also has a built-in accelerometer for tap-for-clock and turn-to-mute features, which we first saw in the Nokia Arte lineup. Read the rest of this entry »

Microsoft To Release Windows Mobile 6.5 OS By Next Month

Microsoft To Release Windows Mobile 6.5 OS By Next Month

Some recently leaked information suggests that we will be seeing the next generation of Windows Mobile called version 6.5 along with three new mobile services by Microsoft at MWC 2009 in Barcelona next month. There’s no word on the OS improvements yet, however the SkyBox, SkyLine and SkyMarket services may return Microsoft back to the game.

Despite running on some of the most capable mobile hardware solutions, the WinMo 6.1 platform can easily be described as “old-school”. Beside the clumsy user experience, Microsoft mobile OS also seriously lacks in terms of online presence.

Where Apple have MobileMe and their AppStore and Google have a whole suite of online application services, and even Blackberry are pushing an online Application center, Windows Mobile has nothing to show. That seems kinda outdated in modern times where everything is synced wirelessly to the cloud and you are always online.

Last October Microsoft announced Windows Azure platform – cloud services operating system, which will be a hosting and management environment for future online services. According to the leaked info the three brand new Azure services will be SkyBox, SkyLine and SkyMarket and they wil be launched in February at the MWC 2009.

SkyBox provides wireless sync capabilities to Windows Mobile users. Contacts, messages, organizer events, files, backup and restore functions will be some of the upcoming features of this service.

SkyLine is aimed at the business clients. It offers the same features as SkyBox, but allows corporate clients to host their Exchange servers with Microsoft and use the wireless synchronization on all the corporate phones.

SkyMarket, as you can guess, is the answer to Apple AppStore. The Microsoft’s mobile marketplace will gather the hundreds of Windows Mobile applications in one place for the first time, so users can buy and download them with one click. Read the rest of this entry »
