I can’t really say that the Nokia N91 really took off here in the States. I don’t know a single person who has one, or even WANTS one. But all that might change with the Nokia N91: Music Edition!
Just when you thought the world had enough of the many, many GPS devices out there on the market, hold on – Nokia’s about to add one more to the mix. Meet the Nokia 330 “Auto Navigation” system.
So I should probably start this week with today’s itty-bitty news released by Nokia: M:i:3, or as you know it Mission Impossible 3, will be coming soon to a Nokia N93 near you. Free!

Motorola announced earnings yesterday, and as you may have gathered from the title, the news was not positive. The company reported a steep 45% drop in profit from last year, which CEO Ed Zander blamed on weak sales of Motorola’s iDEN Sprint/Nextel phones.
