Cracking FCC Filing Reveals Nokia's Gromit
The American FCC, which approves telecommunications devices, is one of the greatest leaks of new phones, and this time, the Nokia RM-67(N71-1), possibly codenamed "Gromit" after the beloved claymation dog (Update: we're told Gromit is the N90). With references to both flip modes, and a slider feature, there's hints of both the N71 and the N80 in the posted User's Manual. We'll probably see these models announced at next week's Nokia Mobility Conference, where All About Symbian will be reporting live from the exhibiton floor.Posted by Ewan Spence at 10:54 UTC, October 28th || 1 Comment

Autumn is Here, Time For Conkers
Chris Heathcote describes it as "The Future of Mobile Gaming," and who are we to argue? Series 60 Conkers has to be one of the greatest game ideas yet, and turns any device (in Chris case a 6630) into the gaming platform for the season... "the next generation of tangible physical locative mobile play" is here. And when all the conkers are finished, the extreme mode kicks in. Nice one Chris, but I need to check my insurance first for the latter.Posted by Ewan Spence at 20:25 UTC, October 16th || 1 Comment
