We told you just today about Nokia planning its news Cseries of phones (click here to view original post). Now, Digitoday has found yet another potential Nokia plan of introducing another lineup, which it refers to as the Xseries of phones, on the OAMI website. This website gives a huge list of Eseries phones and some Nseries ones too. None of the regular devices featured though.
There is yet another trademarked service called “Nokia Money”, the description of which says, “Computer software to enable mobile telephones to transfer money from one bank account to another bank account.” It further goes on to say, “Financial transaction services, namely, providing secure commercial transactions and payment options using a mobile device at a point of sale.”
Check out the pic below and then the OAMI site (if you have nothing better to do!). You’ll be surprised at what you find.

We all love to own luxury stuff. Only, not all of us can afford the cost these brands come with. That’s the reason why fakes thrive the way they do! Last weekend saw the arrival of four Vertu rip-offs entering the mobile market.

Vertu V6000i Ripoff
While they all look stunningly similar to the original models, they of course lack the quality, plus they don’t come with the usual warranty and so on.

Vertu 6612 Ripoff
Two of these devices, V6000i and 6612 have a touchscreen display and the other two, that is, V100 and V10, have only Bluetooth, music player and microSD slot. Some of these even come with twin SIM card slots – talk about creativity taking wings!

Vertu V100 Ripoff
One look at these pics and you’ll know how easy it is to get conned in this big bad world. Just make sure to purchase your Vertu phone from an authorized Nokia Flagship Store or some such thing. Remember never to buy such precious stuff from unknown online sources.

The Nokia E52 is quite a thing, really. Very tiny and slim, it weighs just 98 grams. But its small frame hides a powerful Symbian system and also comes with a fantastic 600 MHz ARM processor and 1500 mAh battery. Other specs of this lovely smartphone include 3.2MP EDOF camera, GPS, WiFi, quadband GSM/EDGE, triband HSPA and 3.5mm headphone jack.

The thing not-so-special about this beauty, though, is its camera. While the E72 has a fabulous camera, this one is just about ok. Nothing wrong with it, but no great shakes either, is what we thought after looking at some picture samples. Take a look at the sample pic below and you guys will know what we mean.

The E52 is expected to come into the market in Q3 2009 at a price of 245 EUR or $346 before taxes.

If you have been used to syncing your Palm Pre smartphone with Apple iTunes so far and if you have upgraded iTunes to 8.2.1, you will find that your sync efforts have been breaking repeatedly. This is because Apple has now been blocking Palm Pre users from syncing iTunes with their handhelds.
The new iTunes 8.2.1 software update “provides a number of important bug fixes and addresses an issue with verification of Apple devices”. Quoting iTunes spokesperson, Natalie Kerris, “iTunes 8.2.1 is a free software update that provides a number of important bug fixes. It also disables devices falsely pretending to be iPods, including the Palm Pre. As we’ve said before, newer versions of Apple’s iTunes software may no longer provide syncing functionality with unsupported digital media players.”
Palm does not have a solution right away, so it is advisable for you to stay with iTunes 8.2 for the moment, if you need to sync your smartphone with iTunes. Otherwise, you could also use your USB to transfer files back and forth.
