So that’s my first impressions of the Motorola Droid. I’ll give it some more real-life usage before publishing my full review. If you want to purchase this device, Amazon is selling it for $149.99 with a service plan.
Amazed that it works in Mandarin.
the application is for version 3 of Nokia S60 — more recent phones running version 5 touch screen are not yet supported.
R.I.P N-Gage
Ovi Store will be the new central place for all the mobile games that Nokia and other publishers offer from this point forward. We will no longer publish new games for the N-Gage platform.

The ten patents in suit relate to technologies fundamental to making devices which are compatible with one or more of the GSM, UMTS (3G WCDMA) and wireless LAN standards.

My friends get their music from torrents or iTunes.
The figures don’t look good for Nokia, considering the investment it has made in Comes With Music. There is evidence that CWM is doing better in emerging markets than in developed Western countries where there is more competition.
