Nokia 6124 - an unlocked S60V3 FP1 phone for 100GPB

Correction: this box runs FP1, not FP2! A big thank-you goes out to Furie for correcting us!
The folks at PDA247’s have done a review of Nokia’s ultra-cheap 6124 smartphone.

They generally liked the box, but found a huge issue: when calling for longer periods of time in 3G mode, the device starts to heat up significantly. Switching off 3G improves the situation somewhat - but this IMHO isn’t the way to go.

People able to live with the heat will be very happy with the box - click the link above for a (short) review…

N82 Photo Awards pick out excellent N82-generated images

The Nokia N82’s camera fared very well in our recent TamsS60 review - especially due to its excellent Xenon flash (/me is a flash junkie). A blog with the funny name “Nokia Creative” has now picked out ten great photos from the N82 user group at the photo sharing site FlickR, and made a “photo award” of some sorts.

IMHO, no prices are given except for bragging rights…but seeing that some of the images are quite good, giving them a click at the URL above could be well worth your time!
