I got a couple of E63's today for my cousins. I took the opportunity to take a picture of my box collection. I closed the shutters so my room would be pretty dark.
Boxes on the N97. Shot with auto mode.
As you can see, the boxes are not well lit and many things are a bit blurry. The colors don't seem right. Its almost as if its a picture from 1909.
Boxes on the N82. Shot with auto mode.
Everything is sharp and bright. Xenon flash makes a world of difference. I am going to miss my N82.
I didn't realize I wasn't subscribed to the Symbian Vox group feed until today. I removed all the spam posts and blocked the users.
Don't be afraid to post!
Wow, I've gone 4 days without needing a reset! I set up Best Profiles so that it switches to the Night profile at 4 am. Also, when the Night profile is activated, Podcasting starts. I get all my shows downloaded when I wake up
The N97 v10 firmware has a strange bug where Podcasting closes after running out of RAM. Once that happens, Podcasting cannot be opened again.
This is such wonderful technology. I had my bluetooth headset connected then activated the FM transmitter. Music was playing on my car stereo. A call came in and I was talking on my bluetooth headset. When the call was over, the FM transmitter reactivated and the music picked up right where it left off. Awesome!
BOOO!
This is the Virgin Megastore in Hollywood. I found out today the store is going out of business. Everything must go! They're even selling the fixtures.
The Virgin Megastore is located in very prime real estate on Hollywood Blvd sitting between the world famous Grauman's Chinese Theater and the Kodak Theater that is home to the Oscars. Millions of tourists walk by this store every year. It is the perfect location for a Nokia Flagship Store.
This location is an outdoor space that Nokia would prefer, similar to the Chicago and New York stores. It would get very high foot traffic and there's plenty of space for a Vertu room.
Look at the line in the picture. Imagine a similar line for when a big product launches. There's also lots of room on the front for signage and advertisements.
Plus its very convenient to the Los Angeles subway system. It would be very easy to get to the Nokia Plaza, Club Nokia and Nokia Theater at downtown's LA Live.
Hi all!
I've started up a Symbian group here on VOX at http://symbian.groups.vox.com. Since there are so many Nokia related groups here on VOX, I thought it would be good to have everyone under one umbrella to share ideas, thoughts and stories with.
All aboard!

I thought the N93 theme was the best branded theme. I'm very open to debate for changing it.
A new feature in Windows Media Player 12 is remote streaming. Once you're logged in with a Windows Live ID, you can access your home media from anywhere.
The Symbian is SCREAMING for an application that makes use of this. Make some use of those dumb pipes the carriers don't want to be.
I was lurking around the Dish Network website and found a beta program for Sling Guide.
Sling Guide is a web interface for my Dish Network VIP622 DVR.
Sling Guide has no mobile web interface yet. The large screen of the N810 can handle most of the web interface with little need to scroll left and right.
I've been waiting for this functionality for a VERY long time. All it needs is an S60 app and I'll be real happy.
