The Nokia Booklet 3G marks Nokia’s first foray into the netbook market and is currently only available in a few markets around the world. You can think of the Booklet as a premium netbook constructed out of a single block of aluminium, much like Apple’s Macbooks. It packs a 10.1″ 1280 x 720 display, a fanless 1.6 GHZ Intel Atom processor (which makes the Booklet virtually silent), a 120 GB hard drive, 1GB of non upgradeable RAM and runs Windows 7.

One of the best viral videos ever. Hitler finds out about free navigation with Ovi Maps, have a look at what ensues.

Two days ago I received this flash drive from the ‘Nokia Human Research Department’ courtesy of the good people at WOM World. Inside it were two videos showcasing the effect small has on people and how it was the inspiration for the Mini. You might have seen these videos on the web before but I will be honest and admit that despite seeing them, I hadn’t taken the time to watch them.

As it turns turns out, I was missing out of two pretty interesting videos, do check them out if you already haven’t. Lastly, as a bonus, go ahead and download this Nokia ringtone, Mariachi style.

At ‘The Way We Live Next‘ event I was fortunate to get an opportunity to interview Ms. Purnima Kochikar, Vice President, Forum Nokia and Developer Community, who is responsible for strategy and growth opportunities with Nokia’s third party developers to create a vibrant Nokia ecosystem.

Over the course of 30 minutes we able to cover a number of subjects including:

Nokia has just released Qt 4.6, the first release of Qt to natively support both Symbian and Maemo. Why Qt is important is because it enables the creation of applications which can run on both platforms yet be born from a single code base. In other words, the developer can make an application once and then supply it both for Symbian and Maemo devices.

It has been quite some time since I got back from Finland and The Way We Live Next 3.0 event. So therefore I would like to apologies for not bringing you all these awesome videos, demos and interviews sooner, but hopefully the content will be able to make up for it.

So starting today you can expect a whole lot of coverage from the event, and to kick things off here is a video showing what it feels to be inside Nokia House. In addition to trying to show the areas we had access to, I spent some time at the gallery where Nokia keeps all its phones, the first one to the latest. So if you are a fan of relics, this video is for you.

The E72 press release itself stated that it was designed to build on the success of the E71. It in many ways in very similar to the E71 – dimensions, weight, form factor and so on, infact show the E71 and E72 to a layman on the street and chances are he’ll be at a loss to identify separately.

But there is quite a bit to the E72 that is new. The faster 600 mhz processor, feature pack 2 with all the fancy UI and under the hood improvements, a 3.5mm jack, a very good 5 Megapixel Camera and a few more things. But how good is it? Is it really worth the upgrade?

We find out in the following video.

I have had the E72 for a few days now and I am glad to tell you that it pretty much likes up to the tag of being the ‘E71 successor’. I will not go overboard in my praise of the device right now and will give myself a little more time with the phone before I form a definitive opinion.

Meanwhile to kick the E72 coverage off, here is a quick unboxing.

In Knights Onrush your castle will be bombarded by a seemingly endless army of knights hell bent on breaking into your stone fortress. To defend yourself you’ll have a multitude of weapons, traps and even dragons. Of course with any good strategy game you’ll need a mix of defenses to hold off the wide variety of enemies you’ll encounter.

To mark the N97 NAM going on sale tomorrow i.e. June 9 at 11:00 AM in the US Flagship stores, the NYC store has gone ahead and done a pretty good unboxing and a small demo of the black N97 NAM.
