All numbers based on your date of birth reflect influences and events related to the momentum of your life. Think of their effect on your life as similar to the weather and the landscape you travel through — the Path of Your Life. The influences are enormously important. In fact, the most important number in your chart — the Life Path number — is based on your date of birth. And yet, the power of these numbers is felt as almost “external” — most of them affect you only for periods in your life (cycles) or are overcome after you reach a certain age (Challenges). Even your Life Path number is a cycle; it is the longest cycle of your life.” Check it here:

“In times of inconsistent quality, it’s good to reflect back on devices that have oozed quality, charisma or style, and sometimes even all three. I’m looking here at just devices from the Symbian OS world, by the way, so I’m excluding anything powered by a different OS or by a pre-Symbian OS, such as Psion.And, just to make things interesting, I’m not going to cover them in chronological order, but in order of the power of their design. And I’ll take the ‘Top 10’ in reverse order, building up to the most innovative and significant Symbian OS smartphone EVER.

10. Nokia 9500 (2004)
The 9210 (see below) had been established for a couple of years and the 9500 was the big facelift. Rolling in then-new technologies like Wi-Fi and GPRS made a big difference to connectivity, as did the smaller and more pocketable form factor. To this day there are a lot of hardened 9500 users who wouldn’t swap their Symbian and Series 80-powered Communicator for the world.

9. Sony Ericsson W960i (2007)
This was the first UIQ-powered smartphone for years that made me stop and do a double-take. After numerous models with unconventional key layouts or wierd keypads, the W960 looks gorgeous, has a large flush-fitting and almost fully finger-friendly touch screen, a good and traditional number keypad, plus Wi-Fi, a serious 3 megapixel cam and full 3G data. Oh, and it’s black, which always helps in the style department! Yes, there are a few bugettes, but surely Sony Ericsson is onto them…? ” Read more here:

“Mitsubishi announced that the company has decided to no longer continue its mobile handset business in Japan in order to strategically shift resources to the communication-related business and other businesses the company plans to strengthen. This decision has been made with a view to further accelerate the company’s growth strategy under the management policy of “making strong businesses stronger.Mitsubishi Electric started supplying car phones in 1983 to Nippon Telegraph and Telephone Public Corp. and since then, the company has been involved in the mobile handset business in Japan, with the recent products supplied to NTT DoCoMo, Inc. (hereafter “NTT DoCoMo.”) It has become difficult these days, however, to expect growth in demands for the already matured domestic mobile phone market, with the increasingly diverse preferences of consumers leading to severe business conditions. Consequently, Mitsubishi Electric’s mobile handset business has recently suffered shipment decreases and it has become extremely difficult to expect improvement in this field. Under these circumstances, Mitsubishi Electric has considered the course of action involving the mobile handset business from every aspect and decided to no longer continue the business. The company will strategically shift its resources to other businesses the company plans to strengthen, thus continuously boosting the company’s business performance and further increasing its corporate value. Mitsubishi Electric will therefore stop launches of newly developed models after the current models supplied to and sold by NTT DoCoMo. Even after the business restructure, however, we will continue after-sales-service as well as the recall of D06 lithium batteries (announced in Japan on Dec. 7, 2006). Meanwhile, Diamondtelecom, Inc., which is a mobile phone sales dealer and a subsidiary of Mitsubishi Electric, will continue and work to further expand its business. Mitsubishi Electric will also work to maintain and further strengthen the partnership with NTT DoCoMo through the communication related business we aim to expand. ” via businesswire.com
