info on 7650i

292 replies · 41,864 views · Started 21 August 2002

This is sounding more like reality everyday.
Has anyone confirmed that the latest picture of phone and mmc contacts showing is genuine and not tampered with?

Personally I still hold judgement till Nokia say something.

One thing I noticed is that it only has six contacts. So what type of card would it use anyway MMC has seven.

richdjs 😉

Well, first I trust in what willbrady is saying. If he's seen it... why would he want/need to deceive us?? He certainly wouldn't be able to show his "face" here again.

secondly, as the P800 gains traction, Nokia the company (not just the 7650 phone!) will be at a severe disadvantage. Nokia need to maintain the "cutting edge" image.

anyway, product lifecycles are shortening all the time, the 7650 will probably have had a good 12 months before it gets retired. Nothing wrong with that, I say.

And you could even argue that they read the forums! we are always complaining about lack of memory 😃

Correct a MMC card has 7 contacts at the back so I thought I'd check it on my 9210. It has 7 holes in the metal casing where the MMC card goes. Pull out the MMC and look through holes, only the 1st 6 have contacts underneath 😮 .

So it could still be real!

I still wont be convinced that a 7650i is coming unless Nokia announce it.

Morning all.

Richdjs, Yes MMC DOES have 7 pins on the card - but the device only uses 6 of them, don't ask me why - I don't know, anyone there with a 3650 can confirm this.

First off, VERY interesting meeting with Nokia rep yesterday!!
As I said before, our company signed a non disclosure agreement so LEAGALY I should not be saying this, so DON'T QUOTE ME - PLEASE!

7650i is real
It WILL NOT be called 7650i, just 7650
Nokia WILL make officail announcment EARLY next month
They do not want to piss on the fire of the 3650 launch, 3650 is their flagship mass market phone, they do not see 7650i as mass market but for 'die hard' fans of 7650
When 7650 stocks deplete 7650i will replace them, no big launch.
7650i will be metalic blue so if you buy one look for metalic blue one and it will be 7650i
Will be in the shops AFTER 3650.

Now there is one final BIG scoop, again PLEASE don't quote me, but all I can say is...
how would you like to be able to walk into your local NSC and EXCHANGE your 7650 for an upgrade fee! - WATCH THIS SPACE!!

😉

Old news?
First I've heard of it!
I asked at the carphonewarehouse here in Bristol UK and they have not heard of it?
but he then this was the shop that said they would be getting the Nokia 3650 in December.

I don't believe a word of what Willbrady's saying. Why don't you put more pics here, like pictures of screenshots with the phone. Stop saying you can't convince us by putting pics on the forum. Let's see how good your photoshop skills are. And then we'll see how convincing the pics are.

You say Nokia will have more info next month, but if there would be a 7650i it would definitely be released during Cebit next week.

Why don't you make a video of it with your other phone (using PV, Hantro, VideoMMS) and put that on here.

I cannot say anything about that cause i cannot even see the photos (posting through wap). But with lot of imagination and if this is true then nokia may had changed the architecture of the phone so the sim card goes behind the battery like almost all nokia's phone (not mmc card, besides the sim needs 6 pins...) and the mmc goes where the sim was originally. Anyway that's were my imagination goes, and as i said haven't seen the photos yet. But in a couple of days... I.ll make my full comments. Just hoping that if this is true we will be able to get an upgrade , at least on a small fee (eg.30-60 �).

True or not, next month is not long to wait to find out for sure.
I think i will hold off buying a 3650 until then.
Searching Google does bring up a lot of links supporting willbradys claims, but no one else actually says they have seen one.
He was the first to tell about Oplayo2 and bango and all were true so how does he know all this? Willbrady, show us a video like guest says, then we might trust you.

:agrue:

[quote="FOX HOUND"]still talking about that[/quote]

Yes they are still talking about that and even someone will appear in near future something like "I have bought 7650i"... hehe 😃
I think they want or need to believe this gossip.. :-?

so willbrady, d u manage to try n connect it to a bluetooth headset yet ??

jus a thought

Hi K.
We only have one BT Headset here as it is not somthing we are interested in as a company, we are mainly a content supplier for the phones, the BT Headset we have is for a 3650 and is not currently in the office - when I get it back I'll test it for you.

Here is a quick video for you taken with a 3650 - I'll do more tomorrow - I do have work to do you know! 😃
Anything else?

Best

Will

I can't view the format, but I don't need convincing, the extended version needs to be released within the next few months 😃 time is on my side - new technology products don't last long any more.

Anybody think that the video has been touched up??? 😃 😃

Paul

BTW - you can view 3gp videos on your PC by downloading the Nokia Mutimedia Player from the Nokia 3650 support site.

Thankx willbrady for the tip. Actually I encountered a lot of problems executing the file (to install the app) :-? but no worries, I'm curious to see what everybody says...

Paul

Willbrady...let me be one of the first to say THANK YOU.
I know anyone who posts new info gets slammed, nature of the game..
The way I see it is that if this is a scam (and a very good one then) then nothing much lost..but if it is all true, then we are the first to hear it, and many will be obligated to you.
So either way you need a thanks for your info.
Scam?...then congrats on putting a lot of effort into it.
True?..then you have gone out of your way to help spread the info.

Much appreciated.

Have watched the video and if that is fake then it is bloody impressive!!

Will be interesting to see whether Nokia really bring this out or it is simply a prototype never to hit the air, but I certainly have heard nothing from Nokia about this.

Has anyone been able to confirm that the previous pictures and now this video have not been tampered with in any way?
Someone mentioned metadata, do videos contain this also, but it would be hard to doctor every single frame of a video without making a mistake.
Can you even edit a 3pg file I had enough trouble viewing the thing let along editing it.

Jabber.

hmm, "the burden of proof is overwhelming", steady on guys! - willbrady has a day-job like the rest of us, I doubt he has the time to modify a video frame by frame

Paul

Just hoping that if it's true then we may be able to upgrade, and then i may change my mind about nokia...

can i just say that i am very grateful to will for putting all this info online.

also, can i say how tiresome it is to read comments from anonymous dickheads who just want to argue cos they dont have one, its really petty and annoying. I have not been on the forum long, but do a search and you will see that Will Brady is a credible user, not some idiot 'Guest' trying to spread useless rumours

Just think, who on earth would be sad enough to sit at their PC and create fake pictures let alone videos,

to anyone who has said it is fake and that it must be cos they no best, get a life you sad, jealous losers!!!

ps also the 7650 will never lose to anything with an ericsson badge anywhere near it in my mind, have known so many people with ericsson phones of all ranges and struggle to remember one which the owner was happy with!

It's hard to make decisions. But this is very very exciting. All I gotta say is fantastic news coming from WillBrady. This is really keeping us on our toes.. Cheers 😃

Question:

Where abouts are you from Willbrady? And is this upgrade available everywhere (if it is so)?

I went through a point of saying the 7650i was comming, and that was months ago and you all didn't beleive me then!!

Just wanted to say :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P :P
