1) The ringtone "Nokia tune" is actually based on a 19th century guitar work named "Gran Vals" by Spanish musician Francisco Tarrega. The Nokia Tune was originally named "Grande Valse" on Nokia phones but was changed to "Nokia Tune" around 1998 when it became so well known that people referred to it as the "Nokia Tune."

2) The world's first commercial GSM call was made in 1991 in Helsinki over a Nokia-supplied network, by Prime Minister of Finland Harri Holkeri, using a Nokia phone.

3) Nokia is currently the world's largest digital camera manufacturer, as the sales of its camera-equipped mobile phones have exceeded those of any conventional camera manufacturer.

4) The "Special" tone available to users of Nokia phones when receiving SMS (text messages) is actually Morse code for "SMS". Similarly, the "Ascending" SMS tone is Morse code for "Connecting People," Nokia's slogan. The "Standard" SMS tone is Morse code for "M" (Message).

5) The Nokia corporate font (typeface) is the AgfaMonotype Nokia Sans font, originally designed by Eric Spiekermann. Its mobile phone User's Guides Nokia mostly used the Agfa Rotis Sans font.

6) In Asia, the digit 4 never appears in any Nokia handset model number, because 4 is considered unlucky in many parts of Southeast/East Asia.

7) Nokia was listed as the 20th most admirable company worldwide in Fortune's list of 2006 (1st in network communications, 4th non-US company).

8. Unlike other modern day handsets, Nokia phones do not automatically start the call timer when the call is connected, but start it when the call is initiated. (Except for Series 60 based handsets like the Nokia 6600)

9) Nokia is sometimes called aikon (Nokia backwards) by non-Nokia mobile phone users and by mobile software developers, because "aikon" is used in various SDK software packages, including Nokia's own Symbian S60 SDK.

10) The name of the town of Nokia originated from the river which flowed through the town. The river itself, Nokianvirta, was named after the old Finnish word originally meaning sable, later pine marten.

Everyone who has an iPhone knows that the worst part of having one is that your screen will get terribly filthy. Yes, it happens to all of us. Your screen gets smudged and smeared from all the contact from your fingers. Clearly there is a need here, a need for a screeen cleaner who can just live in my iPhone to keep it clean.

Luckily there is a simi-solution to this problem. A company has developed a product for your iPhone that may be exactly what you are looking for. This product is called the "iWash". If you haven't heard of the iWash then it is time you were updated. The iWash is a series of videos for the iPhone that have quickly grown in popularity.

This solution comes from a company by the name of Big Brain Studios. Big Brain Studios was created by it's owner and popular entertainer Dexter the Magician. Starting the company with simple magic tricks the iWash was a little idea that went over really well.

Since their release these videos have grown greatly in popularity. Originally starting with only three iWash girls, Big Brain Studios found that customers desire many options and varieties of videos. Now they offer eleven different iWash videos including the iWash Kenny & iWash Terry which are the newest male screen cleaners. I also hear rumors of new products called the iVoyeur and iTune-Up which I can't wait to get.

So what is the big deal about these videos? They're silly, possibly pointless, but wonderfully entertaining. The iWash is truely PG/PG-13 style content but it is very tame. (However Big Brain Studios promises some sexy versions to be released soon) These are not videos that would be considered appropriate at church, in the office, or anywhere you might find someone who wouldn't appreciate a girl in a bikini. Believe it or not some people have labeled these videos sexist. So if you think there might be a problem, don't play the iWash.

The Description: When you play your iWash video, what can you expect? Once the video is started, you get a short leader and then the background music begins. Out walks your three inch tall private screen cleaner carrying a soap bucket and squeegee. Your dirty, dirty screen is so neglected and it will need a complete and thorough cleaning. A nice quick soaping up followed by some quality swipes of the squeegee and your screen is clean. Well, at least on the inside. A cute smile and your personal screen cleaner exits view.

This amazingly simple concept has captured the attention of iPhone users all over the world. This is a must have for the iPhone enthusiast.

The Negative: There is only one real problem with the iWash: it doesn't actually get your screen clean. Once the video has finished and the inside of your screen has been cleaned, the smudges on the outside are still there. Someone needs to invent an iPhone iWash bikni girl for the outside of the screen. However that one might be difficult to play anywhere but in private.

 



It is hard to believe that there is a mobile device that includes GPS, 5 megapixel digital camera, WI-FI, Bluetooth and an MP3 player in such a tiny package - the new Nokia N95 has certainly arrived!!

The Nokia N95 is the newest edition and the most advanced 3G smart phone of the Nokia N series built on a series 60 Symbian interface topped with up to 160 MB internal dynamic memory for messages, ring tones, images, video clips, calendar notes, to-do list and applications.

There is an abundance of software and maps available compatible with the variety of devices you choose to upload. The idea is that detailed street maps of virtually the entire world are made available for free, along with route calculation and display of your GPS position.

The slot also supports hot-swapping, meaning the user is no longer required to having a card dedicated to music usage. The N95 contains the standard Nseries/Nokia S60 radio player. To operate the radio, you must plug in a headset or the remote control. Sound can then be channeled through the phone's loudspeakers or the 3.5mm stereo headphone plug and TV-out support jack. There is the 3.5mm stereo headphone plug and TV out support (PAL/NTSC).
