Los teléfonos falsos, clones o replicas son cada vez más comunes entre nosotros. Muchos usuarios buscan adquirir sus equipos por medio de EBAY, MERCADOLIBRE u otros comercios para obtener un mejor precio que el que podemos encontrar en los puntos de venta de NOKIA. Por otro lado, para tener un equipo LIBERADO al no comprarlo en una empresa de celulares.

En primer lugar, es recomendable comparar el equipo físicamente. En la foto, vemos un caso MUY OBVIO donde el equipo de la derecha es un CLON (famoso NOKLA). Los botones y el menú son diferentes . No obstante, en los últimos tiempos los equipos son IDENTICOS a nivel estético y las diferencias fundamentales están en los componentes internos y el software. Por ejemplo, a nivel de hardware encontramos:

• Cámara que dice ser de 5 megapixeles y no lo es
• Lente que dice ser Carl Zeiss
• Batería que dice ser de 1200mah
• MADE BY NOKIA en vez de MADE IN FINANLAND o MADE IN KOREA

A nivel de software, encontramos teléfonos que tienen parte de la funcionalidad de Symbian S60 y otra parte está ausente. Por ejemplo, es muy común que:

• el MODO PCSUITE esté ausente en los clones
• falte el idioma ESPAÑOL (generalmente vienen con inglés, chino y algún otro)

Qué podemos hacer para prevenir comprar un CLON?

1. Comprar solo en lugares reconocidos. En el caso de eBAY, MERCADOLIBRE u otra web similar, hacerlo solo de vendedores con MUCHAS CALIFICACIONES POSITIVAS. Tomen su tiempo y lean las calificaciones NEGATIVAS que tiene el usuario. A su vez, es preferible comprar de alguien que posee un SHOP ya que suelen estar más controlados.
2. Soliciten el MODELO del teléfono y el código del producto (PRODUCT CODE). Controlen que el producto exista buscando en GOOGLE los listados de códigos para cada modelo. Es importante verificar que el código del producto coincida con el modelo. Por ejemplo, en N95-3 tiene uno de sus modelos RM-160 y product code 0552415. Lo que no puede ocurrir es tener ese product code con el RM-159 que es la versión europea (N95-1).

El código de producto son los primeros 7 números después de CODE que pueden verse en la etiqueta que está debajo de la batería. También puede ver información del teléfono pulsando *#0000#.

Una vez recibido su equipo, CONTROLEN LA GARANTÍA en la web oficial de NOKIA: http://www.nokiausa.com/A4410053

Para realizar esta verificación, van a necesitar el NÚMERO DE SERIE que puede obtenerse pulsando *#06# o mirando la etiqueta antes mencionada.

Es muy raro que un teléfono 'limpio' no figure en esta Web. De esta forma, pueden detectar equipos a los que se les modificó el código de producto para que sea más difícil detectar que son falsos.

Finalmente, conecten el equipo al NOKIA SOFTWARE UPDATER y vean si es reconocido y detecta el MODELO / CÓDIGO DE PRODUCTO.

Este conjunto de acciones les van a permitir obtener indicios para determinar si han comprado un CLON o un equipo ORIGINAL. Ante la duda, contactar a SERVICIOS AL CLIENTE NOKIA.

Aplicar firmware estándar a N95 prendados (brandeado)

For more details Click Here>>

En este artículo voy a explicar como configurar tu dispositivo NSERIES para poder acceder al contenido multimedia almacenado en tu iPod, PC, Playstation 3, PSP o cualquier otro dispositivo UPnP/DLNA compatible.

Para comenzar, veamos brevemente de que se trata DLNA (Digital Living Network Alliance).  En resumen, se trata de un grupo de empresas fabricantes de electrónica, informática y equipos móviles que desarrollaron un estándar compatible para todos los dispositivos.

DLNA permite que los distintos dispositivos que pueda haber dentro de una red doméstica se interconecten entre ellos para compartir contenidos. El NOKIA N95 8GB es el primer teléfono celular DLNA Certificado.

Por esto, Nokia ha dedicado una sección completa de su sitio a explicar como configurar la red inalámbrica, el teléfono celular y la PC para poder compartir contenidos (en inglés): http://europe.nokia.com/A41123203

A continuación, vamos a ver una breve introducción al tema y a grandes rasgos, los pasos necesarios para crear una RED DOMÉSTICA que permita conectar un N95 a una PC vía Wifi y compartir contenido multimedia.

1. DESCARGAR SIMPLE'S CENTE HOME MEDIA SERVER SOFTWARE

Este programa permite catalogar música, videos e imágenes que luego podrán ser accedidas desde el teléfono celular. Es decir, podremos utilizar nuestro N95 como control remoto para reproducir contenidos almacenados en la PC.

El software se descarga de la siguiente dirección Web: http://www.simplecenter.com/

2. CONFIGURAR LA RED DOMESTICA DE TU N95

La configuración de una red doméstica en el N95 es muy fácil. Vamos a encontrar el ícono de RED DOMÉSTICA en la carpeta HERRAMIENTAS del N95 y dentro de la carpeta CONECTIVIDAD que está adentro de la anterior para el caso del N95 8GB.

En este punto, la red inalámbrica tiene que estar conectada al N95 y a la PC. Al iniciar la configuración de la red doméstica tendremos que indicar el PUNTO DE ACCESO wifi sobre el cual está la PC (usualmente el router Wifi).

Una vez instalado el software HOME MEDIA SERVER, configurado el N95 y ambos equipos conectados por un router Wifi puede comenzar a COMPARTIR CONTENIDO (Share Content). Desde el N95 puede configurarse que contenidos se van a mostrar a la red doméstica y cuales no.

3. SINCRONIZAR EL CONTENIDO MULTIMEDIA

Algunos equipos como el N78 permiten mantener el contenido a través de la red doméstica sincronizado. De esta forma, la música, videos e imágenes se encuentran resguardados. Esta funcionalidad, es similar a la que ofrece NOKIA PC MUSIC.

Nokia ha lanzando un nuevo servicio de CHAT integrado a la administración de contactos e incluye algunas funcionalidades novedades al respecto.

Este servicio, al igual que los servicios provistos en el portal OVI requiere una cuenta de usuario (que utilizaremos para todos los servicios).

El software está muy bien presentado y apunta a reunir los usuarios de la comunidad OVI ofreciendo un producto que permite:

• administrar la presencia ONLINE
• enviar mensajes instantáneos
• conocer personas en ubicaciones similares
• compartir la ubicación desde donde se está hablando

Por supuesto, el producto asumo que el usuario cuenta con un plan de datos ILIMITADO ya que para administrar conexión de mensajería instantánea el dispositivo debe permanecer conectado.

Por mi parte, no comprendo el sentido de este tipo de iniciativas. Porqué habría de utilizar un software de estas características cuando mi mundo online y la interacción con familiares, amigos y colegas está basada en redes de IM existentes como GMAIL, MSN y SKYPE.

En resumen, prefiero mantener FRING continuamente abierto a utilizar NOKIA CHAT hasta que ofrezcan un modelo de INTEROPERABILIDAD con las otras redes de IM. Por supuesto, siempre está la posibilidad de que me esté perdiendo de algo IMPORTANTE, pero aún, no lo veo.

Nokia Betalabs just released a new application. The new application is called "Nokia Chat" and as you can guess it's for chatting via your device. You can also share your location and do some other great things.

Nokia Chat is more than just messaging. You can share your status and your location, giving you physical presence! Start a Nokia Chat with your friends with instant and voice messaging and finish it face-to-face. Get together with Nokia Chat – it’s where we are now.

You can find the official website of this new application here. However, before installing Nokia Chat  ensure that you have installed the latest support file which you can get here.

1. Apple's iPhone shook the much-settled world of the largest handset provider of the world, Nokia.

2. Now again, Apple's iPhone 3g is bound to stir the well-established corporate penetration of RIM's Blackberry series of phones.

3. Nokia has apparently decided to completely take-over Symbian, raising its stake from previous 48% - and it's in the air that they're planning to make it an open-source platform.

4. Google is throwing its best horses forward in the mobile game in developing the 'delayed' free mobile platform, Android (along with 30+ other firms). Symbian becoming an open source mobile platform will be a direct competitor to Android.

5. Samsung has recently launched its new phone - Omnia to compete with iPhone.

6. Getting back to Nokia - it has launched its N-series phone: N82 (which I believe is the best phone in the market currently - catering to each & every need of the user with the best features) & in business-line E-series phones: E71 (this business-phone TOTALLY rocks)

7. Now getting onto more serious stuff, VOIP world is changing the established world-order of landlines & GSM mobiles too - TOTALLY! Using softphone VOIPs I can currently call about 50 countries for free, for unlimited time. For other countries, the telephony is FREAKINGLY cheap.

8. As if softphones on computers were not enough to the ever-ending lazying and craving desire for ease & comfort, Fring has further brought these VOIPs to be integrated with VOIPs (and needless to mention, Skype, Gtalk & other IMs)

9. With Tpad & Skype etc. providing local lines in countless countries so that people make local calls to reach any globe-trotter without the change in any number, the world has shrinked further - TOTALLY!

10. Skype's new enhanced video facility is touted to root out existing ISDN Video-conferencing and make it dirt cheap.

I believe, this is just the beginning - the beginning of a totally new world-order (NWO, I love this acronym)! There's lot more in the mobile space with the virtual communication medium like 'Second Life' going mobile and Lively coming in action. The opportunities are limitless; a total change is imminent; the future is good!

The only question pertinent question here, I believe, is - when these mobiles/phones (and ofcourse, other gadgets too) in our lives have put us behind closed doors, when we've stopped to step out of the dwellings to interact with others, when we don't even know who lives next doors to us, are mobile phones actually "bringing us closer'"?

Also apart from the Nokia N73 there was no other phone which was quite as exciting. N95 being too expensive for me. Then the 8Gb version came out and also the E90. Both of them way too expensive for me to buy. I'd have to sell my bike to get hold of either one. No ways I'm doing that.
Finally the N82 was launched. This phone really caught my fancy. It excelled everywhere the N95 showed flaws.

The N82 had more compact dimensions, xenon flash, larger battery, RAM, etc. It was also priced closer to reality. Oh and theoretically it has more memory than a N95 8Gb and an iPhone combined, due to the micro sd card support. I hear that the N82 should support the 16Gb micro SDHC easily. Awww!!! you poor iPhone users...

I started saving up for the phone. Finally on the 26th June I sold my beloved N80. (Goodbye old friend, I really had some great times with you. you really helped me and served me well, may the your current user realize how good a phone you are.) I now am using a N82 (second hand again!)

But i did manage to get a 3 month old phone, thus getting warranty on it. I also bought a 4Gb micro SDHC. upping the total memory available to 6Gb (2Gb comes with the phone anyways). I also picked up a spanking new Jabra bluetooth accessory 'BT3030'. it is a stereo bluetooth device. A real hip looking device. I shall be posting review of this device in the weeks to come.

As you can see, I have really done a lot with Nokia phones, especially the N series. And I don't intend to stop just here!!! I hope the right people are listening!!!

Nokias' N-series line has become synonymous with high-end, style/sexiness, and having great multimedia capabilities and the N82 is no exception.  The outer casing is built with high quality plastic with a high gloss black finish.  Although attractive this makes it perfect for fingerprints, oils, scratches, and other particles that will come in to contact with the surface.  The back battery cover is also plastic that is treated with a light grey lined pattern that makes a great contrast to the dominant black.  Overall the phone is light but not the point where it feels like a cheap toy.  Build quality feels sturdy with minor creaks when heavy/unusual pressure is applied to the phone.

One thing that struck me after the initial minute of use was how comfortable the D-pad is to use. Although the buttons are identical in size the flat large center button makes it alot easier to navigate on the phone and is very accommodating.  Comparing the N95 to the N82, the N95s' D-pad is good but the raised pin like button makes it uncomfortable and harder to use.

The N82 has a unique number pad that strays away from the "standard" flat grouped keys.  The keys are raised, small and very narrow.  I thought that this would be a issue, at first cursing Nokias' engineers that they tried to make this number pad more art over function.  But after a day or two I easily adjusted to them and did not have any issues punching up lengthy text messages, entering web addresses or dialing phone numbers.  Occasionally I did catch myself hesitating mid text when I was mashing quickly, but overall performance was good and I do not think that the design will be an issue with most users.

The N82 sports a 2.4" QVGA 16 million color display.  Although not as large as some of the other N-series phones (N95 = 2.6" N95 8GB = 2.8" N81 = 2.4") the display is easily readable.  The screen sits flush with no bezel surrounding it.  This allows the clear plastic over the screen to easily attract scratches.  With only a few days of use I easily could recognize some fine lines developing and for this reason I highly recommend purchasing a screen protector before using it heavily.  I was a little worried since I was used to staring at a 2.6" screen (trust me that .2" is a world of difference).  But having used it for calls, web and movies, it works well. The screen is clear, colorful, but a tad bit dull.  But being smaller and dimmer does have its advantages. I had a huge standby and active time.  With the N82 I went two and a half days of heavy use (internet use over edge 2+ hours, 2 hours of calls, 20 photos taken, and 20 min. of GPS) When I ended up at home I still had a bar remaining.  The reason behind this is most likely due to the larger battery that it has.  The N82 comes with a BP-6MT (1050 mAh) which is 100mAh larger than the N95's BL-5F (950 mAh).
Update: As of July 3rd there was a hack available on the net that would increase the brightness of the screen on the N82 to that of the N95. One downside to the hack is that the brightness setttings cannot be adjusted after the hack is performed.

The N-series line is most known for the ability to have outstanding media capabilites.  With the N82 this is no exception.  The N82 has an amazing camera that is worthy of replacing your day to day point and shoot digital camera.  The camera is quick to respond to almost any situation with the ability to switch scene modes (auto, user defined, close-up, portrait, landscape, sports, night and night portrait), as well as flash control (auto, on, red-eye (reduction), and off).  As with a normal camera the N82 does have a shot timer and burst shot mode.  Also color tone selection is available to add that special effect (sepia, black & white, vivid, and negative) and a little something for those emotional shots. These features would be enough to make most consumers jump for joy.  But in typical Nokia fashion they have packed alot more to further the experience.  After all this is an N-series device.  For the photographer that demands more from their mobile photographing session the N82 also have the ability to adjust the white balance, exposure, sharpness, contrast,  and ISO.  I did mention that this is a phone first, right?  Additionally, the camera does have a movie mode that can take movies at a gorgeous 640x480 at 30fps.  I can recall times that I've taken video with other phones only to be disappointed by the poor resolution and frame rate. With the N82 I've been released from those shackles and now have a new standard for mobile imaging.  The movies are large, smooth and I cant count the number of times that I have outputted all these to a T.V.  Yes! The N82 does not confine you to the 2.4" mobile screen to share with friends and family, but has a great feature that allows you to connect to a T.V. and play videos, slide shows, etc.

Many people familiar with the N-series might be reading this and saying "so what?" or "this is nothing new".  This is true, most of the new N-series devices (N95, N95 8GB, N81, etc) are known for having great image quality and capabilities well beyond a normal phone.  For the N82 Nokia threw in a couple new features that even N series owners can appreciate.  The first is the addition of geo-tagging.  This feature allows the user to tag any photo that is taken with coordinates using the built in GPS.  Then the user can choose to upload this to a map so that they can have a layout or keep the photos private but always have the exact location where the photo was taken as data.  This feature has been sought after by many S60 owners that have the GPS feature on their phone.  Hopefully this feature will be included in future firmware upgrades.  One of the more truly unique features about the N82 is that the unit is equipped with a Xenon flash.  This feature alone makes this phone absolutely amazing.  Many people have reviewed and talked about it, and in reading these online I always felt that maybe there was some over exaggeration.  But using it personally they were spot on.  It brings a whole new experience when taking pictures (especially at night).  Previously many phones have come equip with either a LED, dual LED, or no flash.  The LED offered some illumination but would generally be in effective after 3 feet and the overall illumination of the subject would be weak.  At best the LED could be used as a flashlight.  However, the Xenon flash reaches way beyond that and illuminates things perfectly. The power of the flash is just like that of a regular camera.  I have no need to hesitate when I am taking pictures in a dark area.  Even to this day it is still a unique feature that only a handful of phones on the market have, and most of those are other Nokia models.  Oddly enough the N96 (Nokias' next gen flagship phone) will not even come equipped with this great feature and is instead using a dual LED.  I believe that the Xenon flash is something that any user can appreciate.  The N82 Xenon flash definitely produces a "wow" factor.

When talking about the musical capabilities of the phone, the N82 is by no means on the lower end.  Although the dual speakers are oddly placed on one side, they are clear, loud and very stereo.  Comparing them to the N95 is difficult because they sound different but I can't quite figure out what makes them different.  The N82 produces rich sounds that don't sound stressed when the player is set to 100% volume and even though they are coming from small speakers are still able to emulate bass.  The music player supports album art and does come with visualizations (although these are basic).  The music player comes with a shuffle, repeat and equalizer option.  The equalizer has six pre sets (default, Bass booster, Classical, Jazz, Pop and Rock) as well as the ability to create a new preset with an 8 band equalizer.  For those that enjoy using their phone as a music player the N82 comes prepared with 3.5mm jack (perfectly located on the top of the phone) that will fit all your favorite headphones and A2DP support for stereo Bluetooth capability.

Dual speaker on N82

The phone comes with built-in GPS receiver that is capable of A-GPS (provides for faster lock times).  The N82 accomplishes reasonably quick GPS location locks, at most taking 15 seconds.  The application that comes bundled with the phone is Nokia Maps.  The N82 came with version 1.2 installed (version 2.0 is currently available for download) although the software is preloaded, the maps however are not.  If you are not using a 3G data connection it is highly recommended to load the maps in advance at home using the accompanying software.  You are given a choice of what areas you would like to load to either your phone or the memory card.  However if you are on 3G you will most likely survive with on the fly downloading of the maps (although less efficient).  Nokia Maps has an integrated "search" feature that allows you to search the map for points of interest.  Visually the map can support the traditional 2D (top down) view or 3D view which puts the map at a 3rd person angle. One important feature that most users will look for with GPS equipped phones is the ability to use navigation.  However this is not a standard feature of the software and must be purchased for an additional cost.  Unfortunately for the user Nokia Maps does not have a onetime fee, the user must subscribe to the navigation service (1-year=$141.53, 30-day=$15.71. and 7-day=$14.14)

Overall I enjoyed experiencing the N82.  I did have to worry quite a bit about not scratching the unit but what a small price to pay to be able to enjoy having the ability to photograph at all times of day with excellent quality.  Compared to other phones on the market I believe that Nokia is going in the right direction and luckily we will be able to see more from the N-series line in the near future.  Pushing the limits and capabilites of a phone only allows over companies to re think their products and compete to create  a superior product that is going to thrill the consumer in the end.

El concepto es muy simple: configurar una frecuencia y hora en la que queremos que un TEMA o PERFIL se active (modo silencio por ejemplo).

Los productos están disponibles para descarga y tienen que ser firmados en SYMBIAN SIGNED previa instalación (ver artículo sobre esto). Ambos software se encuentra en fase ALPHA, es decir, versiones iniciales que aún no están 100% probadas.

Aquí les presento el ANTES (con el firmware aplicado) y el después con esta solución aplicada. GRACIAS A THE NOKIA BLOG.

Para mi sorpresa, uno de los grandes problemas causados por el firmware es la DESHABILITACIÓN del sistema de ANTI-ALIASING. Para resolverlo, simplemente instalamos el software FONT ROUTER LT for Symbian y al reiniciar nuestro teléfono el ANTI-ALIASING va a estar activo nuevamente haciendo que las letras se vean mucho mejor.

http://fontrouter.oasisfeng.com/archives/FontRouter.LT.for.v9.Build20071109.opensigned.sis

Van a encontrar en la Web muchos artículos que explican como cambiar el tipo de letra al teléfono, pudiendo incluso seleccionar letras del sistema operativo Windows (Truetype fonts). Debido a múltiples incidentes reportados por usuarios donde sus teléfonos han quedado INUTILIZADOS no voy a extenderme sobre este tema.

La instalación de FONT ROUTER LT para activar el anti-aliasing ha sido probada por mí y no es una operación riesgosa. Cualquier otra operación con el software corre por cuenta de cada uno y en consecuencia, no voy a contestar preguntas en ese sentido ya que no he experimentado con el tema.

NOKIA EMAIL es un nuevo servicio que apunta a proveer una solución que compita con Blackberry en el espacio de correo electrónico (push mail).

El servicio se encuentra actualmente en fase BETA y por ahora, es gratuito. No obstante, son evidentes los planes de hacer de esto un servicio pago: http://email.nokia.com

Como pueden ver en las capturas, la aplicación está muy cuidada e incorpora la variante que algunos de nosotros reclamábamos en productos como SEVEN en términos de conectividad. NOKIA EMAIL permite trabajar en modo PUSH EMAIL o mediante intervalos definidos por el usuario, de forma similar al cliente interno de correo.

Como pueden ver en las capturas la estética y funcionalidad del producto está MUY LINDA. La bandeja de entrada es mucho más práctica y permite ver en una sola línea quien envía el correo y el tema.

También es posible desconectarnos y trabajar FUERA DE LÍNEA.

Actualmente, pocos tipos de cuenta están soportados durante la fase BETA, pero se planea agregar muchos más. En particular, no hay soporte para HOTMAIL o Correo Corporativo (SMTP / POP privados).

Qué veo con relación a NOKIA EMAIL? Por el momento, interrogantes:

1. Por qué NOKIA no ofrece este nivel de cuidado estético y funcionalidad en el software interno del teléfono?
2. Por qué habría de pagar un servicio de PUSH MAIL cuando hay varios oferentes que lo hacen gratis?

Al momento, el 'feedback' ofrecido por la comunidad respecto de este producto es variado: muchos problemas y muchas mejoras combinadas.

برای خواندن اصل مطلب به ادامه ی مطلب بروید ! :D

N82 مشکی با  Firmware جدیدی ارائه شده که حاصل آن اضافه شدن قابلیت های مختلف یا بهبود بعضی از قابلیت های قبلی بوده . در پایین هر کدام از تغییرات را جداگانه بررسی می کنیم .

• از قابلیت های اضافه شده قابلیت نشانه گذاری مکان عکسبرداری بر روی نقشه با استفاده از GPS می باشد که این قابلیت برای گوششی های N78 و N96 معرفی شده بود ولی این Firmware جدید این قابلیت را برای N82 هم بوجود آورده. وقتی که شما این گزینه ی " ضبط مکان " را در گوشی فعال می کنید گوشی شما با استفاده از GPS مکان و اطلاعات دقیق محل عکسبرداری را ضیط کرده و وقتی شما عکس ها را در سایتی مثل فلیکر دانلود می کنید می توانید عکس های خود را مستقیما بر روی نقشه در مکانی که گرفته اید مشاهده کنید .

• قابلیت دیگر اضافه شده نرم افزار Flash Lite 3 می باشد که در گوشی های N95/N95 8GB هم وجود دارد و با استفاده از این نرم افزار می توانید فیل های ویدیویی فلش را بر روی اینترنت مشاهده کنید و همچنین از گوشی خود به سایتهایی همچون YouTube سر زده و به تماشای کلیپ های تصویری آن بپردازید .

• به گفته ی بعضی منابع که گوشی N82 با Firmware جدید را تست کرده اند در سوییچ شدن حالت نمایشگر از عمودی به افقی ( که در N82 بصورت اتوماتیک وجود دارد ) تغییراتی ایجاد شده و این عمل طبیعی تر انجام می گیرد .

تصویر زیر صفحه نمایش گوشی N82 با فریمور جدید را نشان می دهد . این فریمور با معرفی N82 مشکی منتشر شد و کسانی که قبلا N82 را خریداری کرده اند برای بروز کردن نسخه ی فیرمور گوشی خود به این سخه ای که توضیحات آن در بالا گفته شد باید به اینترنت متصل شده و طبق فرامین داده شده در راهمنا اقدام کنند البته خوب این کار ساده ایست ولی اگر ئوستان تقاضا کنند مطلبی هم درباره ی بروز کردن فریمور خواهم نوشت .

برای اینکه فریمور نوکیا ی خود را چک کنید باید کد فوق را در گوشی خود وارد کنید .

#0000#*        ستاره + مربع + چهار صفر + مربع

در اینجا این مطلب هم به پایان می رسد و امیدوارم جواب پاسخ های بسیاری از دوستان که مثل من می خواستند فلسفه ی عرضه ی N82 مشکی را بدانند را داده باشد و مفید واقع شده باشد .

Este artículo va destinado a profesionales de IT. Las imágenes que ven son de una conexión generada desde un N95 a un Windows XP mediante Remote Desktop y a un Linux mediante Putty S60 sobre SSH. 

La primera vez que instalé RDM+ en mi N95 no tenía muchas expectativas de que fuese algo USABLE. Pero tengo que reconocer que me ha sacado de apuros más de una vez. El producto está muy bien pensando y se apoya en un menú interno que permite suplir la falta de un monitor adecuado, un mouse y un teclado externo (en mi caso uso un SU-8W).

Más allá de describir la experiencia, creo que deben probarlo. RDM+ es un producto comercial pero pueden descargar la versión de prueba de esta dirección: http://www.rdmplus.com

Por otro lado, la segunda imagen corresponde a PUTTY S60. Esta pieza de software permite establecer conexiones por canal seguro vía SSH (SSH1/SSH2). Este producto en particular no presenta grandes diferencias con la versión de escritorio. Una vez conectados, estamos en la consola del LINUX.

Para simplificar el proceso de conexión (usuario y contraseña) es posible generar una llave (infraestructura KPI) para automatizar el login o incrementar la seguridad con una contraseña de respaldo.

A diferencia de RDM+ es muy recomendable tener un teclado externo para utilizar ya que no es un entorno gráfico sino una consola de texto.

La página oficial del port de PUTTY es la siguiente: http://s2putty.sourceforge.net/

Software de Nokia para Empresas (Nokia for Business)

Por lo general, es más cómodo realizar búsquedas de lugares en preparación para nuestros viajes desde una PC que desde el celular. La pregunta es, cómo lo llevamos luego con nosotros? A partir de este artículo van a poder enviar los datos a Nokia Maps y con un poco de 'juego', a TomTom y Garmin para quienes usen esos softwares.

El proceso para poder enviar información desde Google Earth a Nokia Maps en tu NSERIES con GPS es sencillo:

1. Inicien Google Earth y encuentren la ubicación deseada
2. Graben la ubicación en formato .kml (no confundir con .kmz)
3. En este paso, utilizaremos este sitio Web para convertir desde el formato de Google Earth a un formato que pueda ser interpretado por Nokia Maps: http://poiconvert.free.fr/. Seleccionamos el archivo .kml como fuente de ORIGEN
4. Subimos el archivo .kml que generamos
5. Seleccionamos el formato de SALIDA. Es interesante que este converso puede generar archivos para TomTom (.ov2), Garmin (.asc) y Nokia Maps (.lmx)
6. Presionar sobre el botón CREATE .LMX que generará el archivo y lo ofrecerá para descarga
7. Enviar el archivo .lmx a tu NSERIES. En este punto, hay varias formas de hacerlo: bluetooth, copiarlo a una carpeta por cable USB o incluso enviarlo por email a uno mismo
8. Una vez que tenemos el archivo en el teléfono seleccionen ABRIR y Nokia Maps se iniciará buscando esa ubicación. Luego pueden guardarla en sus favoritos.

First Impressions:
let me put it down as points...
1. The black N82 somehow looks different, one look at the warm titanium/white one and you will feel as if this (black) one has been on a diet. I kept on touching the keypad area to confirm whether it was all metal or plastic (its all metal). Everything on the black N82 looked sharper and less rounded compared to the standard(warm titanium) N82. Its only an illusion though. everything is the same. A colour change can do so much, don't you think so?
2. The speakers on this Black N82 are loud! Now I am sure the people at Espoo have made some modifications. Here is why I am saying that... Last November when the N82 was just launched I heard someone comparing his N82 to a Nokia 6233. Among the things compared was the sound. The 6233 was loud compared to the N82 which put up a bad show. My standard N82 after a software update also did not sound loud enough. Then about a couple of days back while I was talking to a friend, he told me he had recently purchased a black N82, and it was loud!. I wrote it off. But yesterday when I was tinkering I realized that it is pretty damn loud! It sounded twice as loud as my earlier N82.
3. Black is a fingerprint magnet! The one thing I disliked about the black piece is that it catches fingerprints a lot easily than the standard N82. While the standard piece also catches fingerprints, it is hardly visible.
4. My overall thoughts... I like the black piece, but I think the warm titanium colour combination is way better.

What do you people think? Put your comments down and let me know!
P.S. then82blog.com has also got an article about the black and warm titanium colour options. You can read it here[gallery]

To my likings I have been so fortunate to acquire myself a new object of the utmost technical splendour - a new so-called mobile telephone. The name to it given, is that of a Nokia N82. For those so unfortunate to not have held such an object in your hands, this is an object to contact other Sirs and Madams with - in an instant (and over great distances). You only have to push one of those smashing looking buttons and of it goes, out to distant skies or so.

For my own part I find it to be a fantastic device. Not only can you call to other Sirs and Madams with it, you can also find out in which part of the Castle you are staying, drinking your afternoon tea. A GPS I believe it is called, or a "GPS-unit". This is a device that is inside this mobile-telephone (technical splendour), this Nokia N82. To use it, you just tap your finger gently at the "Map" button, and this nice chap inside the telephone not only shows you where you are finding yourself (on a map), but he can also be so kind to tell you how to get from point "A" to point "B" while he also can give you alternative routes through point "C", "D", "E" and even point "F" - to your liking if you so please.

Furthermore it also can (the Nokia N82) contact those members of the society of the lower classes, those that spend all day glancing upon their personal computers - or computaz as some of them say. It does so with a stunning capability called "Wi-Fi" in which I have no good explanation of how it does so (this Nokia N82) - but it can, to your liking if you so please. But that is not all!

It also have whole symphonies inside (though I have not been able to find out how they get in and out of it, and most certainly how they can get into so quietly). The function is quite stunning really, the orchestra or symphony quietly sneaks in this device, this this, mobile telephone, and suddenly they all start playing the most wonderful symphonies, and as far as I know, when this happens, an other Lord or Madam is trying to reach you (over great distance - perhaps all the way from France). What you have to do next is quite rude really, a good Lord, Sir or Madam would sit down and listen to the symphony, waiting to applaude (when the symphony has finished its musical voyage), but if you do this with this mobile telephone, the Lord trying to contact you will not be there - almost as if a Lord was greeting you in City Hall and you just walked by him not saying anything - quite frankly like overlooking him. A dilemma for a Lord really, how can you not be rude under such circumstances? Should one be rude to the symphony or to the Lord trying to contact you - this I have not been able to find a sollution to yet....

To know the positive and the negative points about an electronic or anything for that matter you have to live with it and use it as it were a part of your daily routine and then see where it outstands your imagination and as well where it lacks. This is what I just did with the New Nokia N82. Lets start with first things first,

Anatomy & Histology

The Phone has a very blocky appearance and looks just another regular phone in your hand. It has a thick cross-section area which shows the outline of the phone when it’s lying deep inside your pocket. This by far breaks a handful of customers who want a good looking classy phone.

The color combination is not bad; the golden silvery shine is amazing and makes the front panel come alive at night. The back has an off white finish which perhaps is not as good as the front. On whole I would accept the appearance as a moderate approach which needs a little more work, a steel body would perhaps lift its gloomy looks.

What a regular scale gives is approximately 11.1 cm x 5 cm x 1.6 cm the size will qualify considering the amount of features loaded on to it.

The Weight of the device is pretty good. For its bulky appearance it is actually light. Got to give it to the Nokia for making such a packed device so light.

The four sides of the phone are joined with smooth curves. The top one has the Power On Button along with a 3.5 mm audio jack slot. The left side has the USB cable slot, Memory Stick Slot and the Charging Pin Slot. The right side has 2 speakers one on top and other on bottom along with the Volume Keys, Camera Click Key and the Gallery key in between. The lower side only has the microphone.

The Front panel has a big screen measuring approximately 6.2 cm diagonally. That sure is a big one. On top of the screen we have a small front panel camera for video calls facility. Below the screen are present the keypad. The key pad is the worst part of the phone and the keys are stacked on top of other as they were coins. The buttons too are made very small. I sure had a hard time text messaging and dialing numbers using just one hand, but it is pretty ok if you use both hands. The pencil key has been deleted and the function is served by the # key. Fortunately the call key and the end key have been made big enough so attending and hanging up is not a problem. But on whole it sure will make your Adductor Pollicis Longus and Brevis (Thenar muscles or simply the thumb muscles) a good workout when typing.

The Camera

Nokia N82 features as 5 Mega Pixel Carl Zeiss Optics with Auto Focus. The flash is also no ordinary one and the illumination is all Xenon. It is located at the upper one third of the back of the device and has been provided with a cover which when opened automatically turns the camera on with the view finder on the screen. The picture quality of this phone puts a silence to all the flaws it has. Simply the best picture quality in a mobile phone and good image processing I have seen in a Nokia mobile so far. The flash can click in complete dark conditions and still bring out almost every detail in the clicked picture. A lot of options to choose from the inbuilt picture settings.

The video quality is also pretty good. The sound in the video is just super. It lives true to its name and is rightly said as a “The Storyteller”

Features

The phone when it comes out of the box has a handful of features to offer. With simple calling and text messaging capability it has a wide variety of network selection from 2G to 3G. One can travel to any part of the globe with this device. I made a trip from India to Switzerland to USA and had no problems with the network selection. Making and receiving calls was easy. The voice clarity was super; it missed a few seconds initially but didn’t give me any problems of what so ever later on.

I have to keep logged on to check my mails frequently which was well served with the built in email client and Wi-fi connectivity. I also had no need to carry an extra bad for my laptop. So I am pretty satisfied with the email functionality but I must say that it was hard to write long mails due to the lousy keypad. Surfing the Web is also easy with the web browser and the big screen adds to its user friendly approach.

The GPS with Nokia Maps was not functional in some parts of India but was working well in USA and Switzerland. A great tool for someone like me who is new to a place.

Games too are pretty realistic and give you great graphics and performance. Although the gaming keys need a little refinement but on whole I enjoyed playing on a few occasions.

The Search option is also a great feature of the phone on the home screen.

The Music player and FM Radio are not as friendly as in the N95 with the dedicated music keys but once you get used to it, they work just as well.

The Auto-Rotate feature is a very cool thing about the device. Something new in the mobile world. It can get annoying sometimes but can be easily switched on or off depending upon your liking in the settings. Another distinct point about this Nseries device.

The Gallery Feature has a good graphics interface but this makes navigation really slow. My picture gallery sometimes becomes so slow and sluggish that I have to eventually switch the device off and then back on. Seems too much of a burden on that small processor. I was not happy and eventually stopped using the gallery feature.

The PC Sync application is not good. I used it to transfer my contacts to MS Outlook and back to a new device and I was missing few numbers. Only few details were transferred. Thus I recommend you guys to use the BackUp tool to do that.

The Headphones

Good wired 3.5 mm headphones, necessary for FM function but FM works with any other regular headphone too. A bit difficult to work around at first. Not as user friendly as I have seen in Nokia N91. The voice clarity is good. Not too a great accessory for music lovers but okay for a purpose of hands free.

The Nokia Charger

The only problem I had was that after I left India, I was not able to use it. I feel Nokia Should rather provide a small addon Plug to make it worldwide rather than buy a new one all together. Had a lot of problems charging my device all this summer during my traveling.

The TV Out Cable

One of the best things about the device is that you can directly view your media on TV and not only that I also used it to play a handful of games. Not as good as PS 3 but still who’s complaining. The only problem I faced was that I was not able to get the audio working. Otherwise, Good Job Nokia.

Micro SD Card

It is small 2 GB card which according to me is pretty fast in processing. My media on the card was easy to access but I had problems with the gallery feature. Easy to remove and insert card as it is located on the outer left side of the phone.

Final Words

Although the device gave me a few headaches but in the end i rate it as a Good Buy considering the price and the functions it has to offer. Best Camera I have seen in a Nokia Phone so far.

Thumbs Up from a Critic.

A word of caution

Don’t Buy if you planning to use it as a business phone. Strictly No

Fortunately I had the chance to play around with the N82 Black, the stereo Bluetooth Headset BH-604 and the wrist Band CP-218 at the same time. Of course I installed the must-have-application Nokia Sports Tracker on the N82. One sunny and hot Sunday I had to deliver news papers, like every Sunday. Because I wanted to know how many kilometers I need for my route and how fast I am, I decided to track my route using Sports Tracker and N82's build in GPS. As it was that hot I had to wear my shorts which has no pockets so I actually had no place for the N82.

However, since I have the CP-218, which is a little pocket, I could wear the N82 on my forearm which is really convenient. As I already mentioned, I wanted to track my route using Sports Tracker. The built in GPS sits above the 2.4 screen and works really good, also in your pocket, back or in the CP-218.

Than I connected the BH-604 with the N82 Black. The sound quality is indeed great and the volume is also really high. I've never had a such good music experience with an mobile device. I like the feeling of freedom - you don't have any cables and you can use is within 10meters.

Using Sports Tracker you can upload your route to the Sports Tracker Homepage and share your route with the public, your friends or just with yourself. More over, you can change between different view modes, and information about speed, altitude, duration and so on.

Using all these things, the N82 with Sports Tracker, the Bluetooth Headset BS-604 and the wrist band CP-218, you can feel the power of all these things and how good they work together.

Original Post

The World War II game Brothers In Arms is now available for the N-Gage application. You can find it in the showroom section. The game has 37 MB, so it can take a long time to download and install it on your phone. If you can't find it in your N-Gage application just go to "Update Now". Now it should be in the latest games section.
