Updating your Nokia's firmware at home

“Firmware updates are primarily used in order to fix bugs in the software. This is the reason that you may want to update your firmware. If you find you are having a particular problem with your phone (e.g. getting out of memory error messages, or a function not working correctly) then a firmware update may fix the problem. Firmware updates may also, in some instances include new functionality (e.g. the latest N80 update added the ability to upgrade the firmware over the air).Generally models purchased early in a device’s life cycle have more bugs and problems and there can be considerable benefits from updating these devices. However if you have a device purchased later on in the life cycle (6 months after it becomes available) then you are less likely to need to update the firmware, although you may still wish to do so if you are having problems with the device” Lean more at allaboutsymbian.com

Acer MP340 MP3 player does video too

“It seems that releasing a simple portable music player just isn’t enough anymore, and regardless of the size of your display, you absolutely have to include some sort of video-loving capability in there. The latest is the MP-340 from the folks at Acer, a unit that you should probably only use for jamming away to tunes, but if you’d like, you can also watch a wide assortment of movies on its 1.8-inch TFT display. Bear in mind that while it offers 262k colors, the resolution is a fairly abysmal 160 x 128 pixels. Not exactly the best out there (not the worst either), but I guess it’ll have to do, considering just how portable this thing is at 95 x 65 x 20.6mm and 148 grams. A multi-functioning unit, the Acer MP-340 also throws down voice recording, a picture viewer, an eBook reader, a couple of games, and even Sudoku. Rounding out the features are USB 2.0, a 1.8-inch 20GB hard drive, and SD/MMC expansion. We’re still waiting on an announcement regarding pricing and availability, so you’ve got some time to get your squinty-eyed look ready.” via mobilemag.com

Review of a GSM handset Samsung D900


“Insignificant weight of handset is explained by refusal of using metallic parts in the case, it is made fully out of plastic. Assemblage quality is at good level, there’s no backlash of two panels, everything is all right. Front panel is easily soiled, it carries markings from cheek, you can see them clearly outdoors, though they are not that evident indoors.A display installed in this model is great, it has QVGA resolution (240×320 pixels, 33×44 mm), diagonal is 2.1 inches. Display is able to show up to 262k colors (TFT), which are lively and colorful. Up to 8 text lines can fit it, with 4 lines reserved for service needs.
