The
Nokia N97 is Nokia's first device to feature a personalizable home
screen, which can be customized with widgets to bring live information
to the device. These widgets include social networking sites like
Facebook and Hi5, news services like the Associated Press, Bloomberg,
and Reuters, as well as shopping and weather information.
Among
the other recently introduced mobile devices are
Nokia 2730 classic, Nokia 2720 fold, and Nokia
7020.
SouthernLINC Wireless, a Southern Company, has added the new
Motorola Stature i9 phone to its

to be the slimmest Integrated Digital Enhanced Network (iDEN) flip
phone.
Motorola has announced
MOTO W7 Active Edition. It's a
motion-enabled 3G mobile device. The phone is equipped with an
accelerometer that senses your body's motions, orientation, and hand
gestures to perform tasks.

T-Mobile USA celebrated the next generation of its Sidekick messaging
device with the national launch of the new

Twitter. The company transformed the
Paramount Studios lot in Hollywood into a virtual T-Mobile metropolis
for the launch event.
The
Nokia N97 will begin selling in June in over 75 countries. Along with a
tilting 3.5" touch display, QWERTY keyboard and a fully customizable
home screen, the Nokia N97 will offer instant access to the full range
of Ovi services.
It’s
said to be the first device to ship with the Ovi Store, which offers
access to applications, games, videos, podcasts, productivity tools, web
and location-based services. Ovi Store has paid and free content from
global and local content providers and developers, including Paramount
Pictures, Facebook, and Qik, as well as a selection of Twitter
applications.
Nokia
says its
Ovi Store is available globally to an
estimated 50 million Nokia device owners. It covers over 50 Nokia
devices including the N97.
The
N97 device also has access to a catalogue of music in the Nokia Music Store.
It’s coming with multiple high-speed connectivity options and 32GB of
storage (up to 48GB using a microSD card). And you can listen to music
on the Nokia Bluetooth Stereo Headset BH-905, which Nokia also launched
today (June 2).
High-quality images and video clips at 30 frames per second (fps) can be
captured using its 5 megapixel camera with integrated Carl Zeiss optics.
Images can also be geo-tagged to specific locations and shared instantly
