Batteries these days are still pretty crappy. You still get your standard “optimal” 3-5 hour talk time even though it’s probably around 1-3 hours in real life. Since battery technology isn’t improving as fast as cell phone technology, you need a workaround.

Enter the “Emergency Nokia Phone Accessories Preview.” We’ll look at a couple products that are letting you get more use out of your Nokia cell phone provided you have time and energy (mostly time).

After a 2 week hiatus, I received my “repaired” N90 phone in the mail yesterday. Sadly enough, the firmware was NOT upgraded to the latest (which is 5.05), but instead they left me with “3.0543.4.1.” And Nokia managed to crack a small piece on the top of the phone too. Damn it!!!

I’ve been fooling around with my new, cracked, N90 and I’m not noticing any fixes. The camera still takes awhile to open, that annoying bug that locks the camera in closed mode is still there, and the phone is still heavier than most bricks. I’m so ready to swap my N90 for an N92.

Here’s an updated list of changes for version 3.0543.4.1. (source: symbianfreak, with a lot of grammar mistakes fixed by me)

v 2.0530.3.5 (the worst version ever) to v 3.0535.4.3

Here’s the second of the newest batch of Nokia cell phones: the Nokia N72 Phone. Also known as the latest incarnation of the Nokia N70 – a phone that’s barely been out for a couple of months. (nice of Nokia to announce these phones now eh?)

Wow. Barely a year since the Nokia N90 debuted and achieved fame for being the biggest, heaviest flip phone to date, Nokia has (officially) announced the N93. A weird sort of hybrid between the N90 and the European N92 phone, the N93 takes the best of both worlds with more Carl Zeiss optics powering a 3.2 megapixel camera and hinge mechanism mirroring the N92′s.

This is definitely a Nokia cell phone you don’t see every day, unlike the N70s, N90s, or N61s to name a few.

The Nokia 6708 is the phone that you’ve probably heard of (and most likely never will) – unless you live in Hong Kong or China. It’s a stylus-based smartphone with a lot of Chinese language support, and the latest incarnation of the very original Nokia 6108 stylus phone. A very cool device.

As usual, see extended entry for more details.

Yesterday marks the first day on The Nokia Phone Blog where I actually didn’t get any chance to update. So today it looks like I’ll have to do double duty.
