Nokia E72 Now Available in the US
The update to the successful E71 finally lands in US soil in the form of Nokia E72.

The Nokia N900 has been spotted on several site ads taking up a lot of screenspace. To name a few, there’s Mashable, Boy Genius Report, Boing Boing, and probably many others.

The Booklet 3G is Nokia’s first netbook, but they’re trying not to label it as such. It’s supposed to be a mini laptop for all-day mobility allowing up to 12 hours on a single charge.

Nokia N900 Featured on Xbox 360
I turned on my Xbox 360 this afternoon and was surprised to see the Nokia N900 as one of the spotlights on the dashboard.

They also provide an introduction video similar to what we’ve seen before as well as a theme and avatar photos to customize the Xbox.
Nokia N97 Mini Review
It’s hard to like the S60v5 again after using a Maemo device like the Nokia N900. I’ve been trying to use the Nokia N97 mini to write a thorough review, but I always ended up putting it down quickly. Want to know what I think in one sentence? The Nokia N97 mini looks damn good and packs a lot of features, but I would recommend other devices before this one.
