Nokia 6700 Slide Now Available at Rogers

Wasn’t long ago that Rogers launched a device I’d never heard of, the LG Loop. Now, it looks like they’ve gone live with another previously unheard of device, and this time it comes in the form of the Nokia 6700 ‘Slide’.

True, I’m not really the Nokia guy here at IntoMobile, and I chalk my lack of knowledge of the carrier down to the fact that I haven’t carried a Nokia in about 10 years… that, and the fact that all of their devices come standard with a numerical moniker… makes it hard to remember what device is what, at least, in my books.

Anywhoo, getting back to the 6700 Slide, it is available now, starting at $79.99 on a 3-year contract. Other options include $129.99 on a 2-year contract, $199.99 on a 1-year, and $229.99 on a month-to-month deal (or for the device only, your choice).

Before I lay down some specs, here the official description via Rogers:

The colourful and compact Nokia 6700 Slide is designed for you to capture and share life’s special moments, through messaging and social networking services. The 5.0 MP Carl Zeiss camera and Ovi sharing features means the 6700 Slide will provide endless fun. The 6700 also comes with FM radio, access to Ovi services and 3G speeds up to 10.2 Mbps.

The 6700 packs S60, a 5 megapixel Carl Zeiss camera with LED flash, autofocus and video, FM stereo tuner, a 2.5mm headset jack (boo!), expansion to 16 GB via microSD, and, finally… a 2.2″ display with a 240 x 320 resolution.

Nokia 6700 slide available at Rogers. Nokia C3 also headed to Canada

Rogers has just launched a rather old Nokia phone: the 6700 slide (officially announced way back in November 2009).

The 6700 slide costs $79.99 on a 3-yr contract agreement and features Symbian S60, a 2.2 inch QVGA screen, HSPA connectivity, Ovi Maps, 5MP autofocus camera with Carl Zeiss optics and Led flash, and front-facing videocalling camera.

The handset doesn’t have GPS and Wi-Fi, so paying $79.99 on contract (more than for the N97 mini, which is now $49.99) is not really a wise choice – the sans contract price ($229.99) is way more attractive.

The Nokia 6700 is available at Rogers.

Nokia 6700 Slide arrives at Rogers

The 6700 Slide is off the rumour list and officially available. The price tag for this is as low as $79.99 on a 3-year and ranges to an affordable no-contract $229.99. There are Canadians who will be happy with this as their first device, or those who don’t want the features of a smartphone.

Specs of this S60 device have a 2.2-inch display (resolution of 240 x 320), unfortunately a 2.5mm headset jack, holds up to 16GB with a microSD card, stereo FM radio and an impressive 5 megapixel Carl Zeiss camera, auto-focus, LED flash and includes a front camera for video calling.

Asus N53JN and N73JN arrive in the UK

It was nearly six months ago we first got wind of these new laptops and a couple of months ago that we first had a play with them while in Taiwan at the Computex trade show. Finally, though, Asus has made available its seriously stylish N53JN and N73JN laptops that sport Bang & Olufsen designed speakers, Blu-ray drives, and Nvidia's rather spiffing graphics switching technology, Optimus.

The N73JN, is a 17.3in desktop replacement model sporting a resolution of 1.600 x 900 while the N53JN is a rather more modest 15.6in with a 1,366 x 768 panel. Both have largely brushed metal finishes that look great and the all important speakers are mounted in a strip running under the screen. There's no separate sub woofer but the message from Asus is these stereo speakers are good enough on their own not to need one.

Both models are based on Intel Core i3 and Core i5 platforms and will sport Nvidia Geforce 325M or ATI Radeon HD 5730 graphics as well as Intel's integrated HM55 solution. With the help of Nvidia's Optimus technology the laptops can switch between the Nvidia and Intel solutions automagically, giving you either better performance or better battery life depending on what you're doing (this isn't available on the ATI solution). Both will also have options for Blu-ray drives and USB 3.0, as well as all the other usual bells and whistles of a modern day laptop.

Prices for the N53 start at £649 while the N73 kicks off at £999. We've already got the N53 in our offices so expect a review very shortly (first impressions are very positive!) and we hope to get an N73 very soon.

Nokia’s Featurephone Problem

Nokia’s struggles in smartphones are well documented, and I’m not going to rehash them here. However, if you live in the U.S. it is easy to overlook just how huge and successful Nokia is. Even in smartphones, Nokia is the global volume leader, and when it comes to featurephones, Nokia literally sells about six dozen of them in the time it takes to read this sentence – every minute of every day.

Most of those are basic voice phones sold in emerging markets like India and Africa, but Nokia is also the market leader in multimedia featurephones. Nokia’s latest entry in that category is the X3 Touch and Type (not to be confused with the X3, launched last year), which is a Series 40 phone with a touchscreen on top and a physical numeric keypad below. I find the X3 Touch and Type deeply disturbing.

First, a bit of background: Whenever I’ve gone to Nokia’s headquarters in Espoo, Finland (which looks like what would happen if you crossed an IKEA with an Apple store), I’ve been impressed by how humble, competitive, and damned smart the people are. Finland has some of the highest labor rates in the world, yet Nokia somehow manages to effectively compete with Chinese vendors on cost. Nokia is not just the largest handset vendor in the world, in most of the world the company retains a premium brand image – and in some areas Nokia has staggeringly high market share.

Nokia got this way by riding the GSM wave in Europe with durable, stylish phones that had wonderfully simple user interfaces. Nokia then built a supply chain and manufacturing capabilities second to none, and it pushed hard into emerging markets such as India, China, and Africa, where it maintains distribution advantages that rivals still have a tough time matching. Ever-conscious of creating economies of scale, Nokia split its line into three basic platforms: S30 for basic voice, S40 for mid-tier feature phones, and S60 for smartphones. However, with the strategy set, Nokia seemingly put its designers on auto-pilot.

Over the past ten years, Nokia has stood by while an entire generation of new form factors has passed it by; Nokia missed the clamshell, the thin trend, QWERTY messaging phones, and touchscreens. In each instance, Nokia half-heartedly introduced its own take on these designs a few years late, just in time to miss what’s next. The touchscreen feature phone has been around so long that, after dozens of iterations, LG actually has a uniform touchscreen UI, and Samsung decided to turn its RTOS (Real Time OS) into a smartphone platform. In contrast, the interface on the new X3 is just touch-enabled S40 without the benefit of a virtual or physical QWERTY keyboard. Nokia calls this “Touch & Type,” but that is misleading, as no typing is involved.

Nokia E5-00 (Hardware) Review

The Nokia E5-00 is a mid-priced messenger aimed at the business user in your household. It comes with a 2.4-inch non-touch screen, QWERTY keyboard and instant access to all your email and business files. What’s more, it also packs in a host of social media apps so you’ll be able to use the Nokia E5-00 for pleasure as well as business. Read on to find out how well it handles with our Nokia E5-00 review.

The Nokia E5-00 shares many of the same features as the Nokia E72, which became available at the end of 2009. So, you’ll find the same screen size, same use of a cracking QWERTY keyboard with individual keys and rubber coating, and even the same 5-Megapixel CCD camera setup. However, there are subtle differences that make the Nokia E5-00 a device in its own right.

Check out our Nokia E5-00 unboxing review

The Nokia E5-00 has a great design and feel to it. The use of a full metal body means it’s as safe-as-house should you drop it or treat it a little rough. The metal backplate similarly is secure and is held in place by pegs either side of the body, the same as we previously saw in the Nokia C3-00.

Measuring just 12.8mm at its thickest point this is a super-slim messenger device and with an overall weight of 126g, it’s a shade lighter than the Nokia E72. On the top of the Nokia E5-00 you’ll find the power socket and also a 3.5mm audio jack. There is also a micro USB port located under a secure latch, so you’ll be able to sync the device with your laptop. The only other features on the side of the device are the aforementioned baseplate pegs and the standard volume buttons (right-hand side) that also double as Zoom controls for the camera.

With this little amount of decoration, everything is focussed on the main body of the Nokia E5-00. The navigation buttons have been reworked compared to the Nokia E72 and feel more spacious and easier to use. The main phone function buttons are made of a single piece of metal with sensors underneath, so sit flush with the main body, while the Home and Message buttons are individual keys that stand proud of the main body. We found using the Nokia E5-00 easy and with a good sized D-pad navigating the onscreen menu is simple.

The Nokia E5-00 QWERTY keyboard has seen something of a slight overhaul, with a large Spacebar and tweaking of some of the secondary keys. However, you’ll find the same rubber-coating that was used on the Nokia E72, so keys feel tactile and being individually mounted you’ll find them nice and responsive. Firing out messages and longer emails is really easy with the Nokia E5-00 and we’ve found it a pleasure to use.

The 5-Megapixel camera comes with a 4x Zoom and with a single LED Flash is fine for use in most everyday situations. However, the lack of a second LED will mean that low-light conditions may well suffer. We’ll be checking out the Nokia E5-00 camera in a separate review but for now, it uses the same Symbian S60 3rd Edition software as other such devices.

You’ll find Wi-Fi and the A-GPS are incredibly easy to setup and start using and with the pre-installed Ovi Maps, you’ll be able to take full advantage of free sat-navigation for life.

The Nokia E5-00 is a great device to use. It feels reassuringly tough in the hand and the keyboard is a pleasure to use. If you already own a Nokia E72 it seems unlikely you’ll want to swift but for anyone looking for a great all-round QWERTY messenger, the Nokia E5-00 could well be the device for you.

Now Sharper Image Launches an E-Reader

Just as the e-readers market seemed poised for a shakeout, Sharper Image–a store best known for its R2-D2 droids and ionic air purifier–has decided to jump in with a new e-reader.

Sharper Image has announced ‘Literati,’ a device with a color screen that will retail for $160. The device will be powered by the Kobo e-book store. Literati will have Wi-Fi connectivity, wireless book downloads and free reading apps.

The Literati has been created after an “extensive two-year design and development process,” says Sharper Image, and will ship nationwide in early October.

The Literati comes to market at a time when upstart e-readers are disappearing. Price wars by the big three e-reader makers–Amazon, Sony and Barnes & Noble and competition in the category has taken its toll on companies.

Earlier this month, Foxit announced it will stop development on its eSlick e-reader. Plastic Logic canceled its plans to bring its e-reader to market, while Cool-er’s e-readers have been listed out of stock in the U.S. for months.

Meanwhile, bigger e-reader makers are ramping up their marketing efforts. Barnes & Noble has started aggressively selling the Nook reader in its stores. Amazon new, improved Kindle e-reader also seems to have turned into best-seller with Amazon racing to keep up with the demand.

Literati will wade into this fiercely competitive market. The color screen on the device is interesting. Though the company hasn’t offered any details about it, it is likely to be an LCD display. But the device doesn’t have a big price advantage over its rivals. The Literati costs just $20 less than the $190 Kindle.

What it has going for it is an impressive retail distribution network. The Literati will be available in stores such as Bed Bath & Beyond, Best Buy, JC Penney, Kohl’s and Macy’s.

Sharper Image Literati eReader Unveiled

Sharper Image has announced The Literati eReader. The new eBook reader is scheduled to launch in October this year and features a 7 inch colour display and wireless connectivity.

The Literati is preloaded with 25 books and allows access to a further 125 at any time and also gives access to an online book store of over 2 million books to download with 1 click.

The device looks similar to the Amazon Kindle in design and has a 7 inch screen up top with a QWERTY keyboard below the screen.

3G connectivity is not included with this eBook reader although it does have WiFi that you can connect up to the online store with and purchase books.

The 7 inch screen is LCD and has a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels. The screen is not touchscreen and required you use buttons on the device to flip the pages of the book.

When launched the Literati will cost $159 and it will be made available over at Best Buy in the US.

Sharper Image unveils Literati eReader

Those who have had their fair share of Web-based games in the past might have fond memories of Literati over at Yahoo! Games, but Sharper Image takes a different route with their eReader, also known as Literati.

This MerchSource-made device will follow the Kindle's footsteps in some ways where its design is concerned, bringing a 7-inch LCD display at 800 x 480 resolution that is decent for e-book reading, but even better to display cover art in all its vibrant color glory.

You will be able to download books from Kobo's online bookstore via the Literati's built-in Wi-Fi connectivity, although there is no chance of browsing the Web with this which might be a bummer considering how convergence devices are the trend.

Expected to hit the market this October for $159, we have our reservations on the Literati when it comes to its popularity and sales success then.

Acer Prepping LumiRead For IFA Outing

E-Readers are all the range at the mo, with loads of manufactures’ planning to release their own version over the next few months, and to that end. Acer confirmed today that they are finally ready to launch their Acer LumiRead in October for the German markets and it will be on show at the IFA next week.

E-Readers are of course a new fangled way to buy, own and read digital books from a number E-Book sellers.

Amazon’s Kindle seems to be the runaway success at the moment and is dominating the market, but Acer is seeking to steal some the market share with its LumiRead.

For the most part, Acer have stuck to current way of thinking, with a E-ink display, which is very similar to the Kindle – but are looking to improve functionality and ease of use.

It uses an e-paper display from E-Ink, which has a native resolution of 800 x 600 pixels, and they have even mananged to add wireless networking, so that e-books may be easily downloaded – something the other notable E-Readers don’t support.

Acer LumiRead looks to spice things up a little with Wi-Fi, DLNA compliance for streaming ebooks if there’s really not enough space onboard, and an ISBN scanner for looking up books on online stores through its web browser. There’ll even be an option for 3G.

Unfortunately, there’s no word yet on a UK release date, though confirmed deals with Barnes & Nobles in the US and Libri.de in Germany suggest the Acer LumiRead will be seeing a Western release very soon.

The exact price has not been disclosed, but rumours suggest that it will be along the lines of 250 Euros.

We’ll be at IFA and will get some face time with the new E-Reader and let you know whether it’s going to give the Kindle a run for its money.

Nokia 5250 makes its official sighting, touchscreen smartphone at price 115 euros

After many sightings and leaks Nokia has finally announced the launch of its latest touchscreen smartphone, the new Nokia 5250. The Finnish mobile company introduces Nokia 5250 as a trendy handset featuring music player and a free copy of Guitar Hero 5 Mobile for its music fans and loads of other features with retail price tag of 115 euros. The handset is expected to hit the market by the Q4.

Nokia 5250 sports a 2.8 inch TFT touchscreen with an aspect ratio of 16:9 and a resolution of 640 x 360 pixels. The phone comes with an onboard memory of 51MB expandable up to 16 GB via microSD card. Its 2 MP camera provides an access to Ovi Store so that the users can directly share their photos on social networks and upload them on the web.

Since Nokia 5250 is largely seen as a music phone, the handset provides large number of options for music lovers. It includes an integrated FM radio, an access to Ovi Music that offers downloadable tracks and Ovi Music Unlimited from select stores. Ovi Store can also be accessed for additional applications and games. The battery ofNokia 5250 offers 7 hours of talk time, 18 days of standby time and 24 hours of non-stop music.

The handset also offers a fast access to social networks like Facebook, Twitter and MySpace from the homescreen. The user can log in to any email accounts like Gmail, Yahoo! Mail IM and Ovi Mail. The handset runs on Symbian 1 OS and the connectivity options include GPRS for data connectivity and GSM/EDGE over four bands. Sadly the phone does not offer Wi-Fi connect and GPRS or 3G.Nokia 5250 comes in 4 vibrant colors namely, Black, White, Purple and Blue.

The price of Nokia 5250 in India is Rs. 7,500. The smartphone from Nokia is no way comparable to the high end smartphones in the market but undeniably Nokia 5250 at such a price tag is company’s effort to launch a smartphone that comes within the range of its mid range mobile customers.

Dell Aero goes to At&t: Any takers?

If you are knee deep in the cell phone world as some of our readers and obviously our writers it is hard to imagine mobile’s being pumped out that don’t have all the bells and whistles that last few years have brought to the industry. Thinking about a mobile without HD recording capabilities or the latest OS or even a super powerful processor makes us cringe and leaves a one-sided question. Who buy’s this stuff.

Well my friends the day has yet to come where every phone is a super phone. If and when that day comes, we’ll let you know. But in the meantime we get to ponder the likes of such phones as the Dell Aero. The Dell Aero has officially made its way to the likes of At&t and is seemingly disappointing. For about $99 buck and the cost of a new contract you can pick up a Dell Aero, if you chose to run sans a contract you can pick one up for $299.

The Dell Aero tries to hold its own with a 3.5 multi-touch display, a flash equipped 5MP camera, a 624 MHz processor, quad band GSM, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, a micro-SD memory slot – which is expandable to 32GB – and a 1000 mAh battery. Last but not least, the new Dell Areo runs Android 1.5, yes Android 1.5. I will not delve into the fact that Dell and At&t are launching a phone from 2010 that is using an OS that is very much outdated, I will simply leave that alone.

But all in all the Dell Aero seems like a good package for the price. It seems like it would make a good gift to someone you know that does not need the high end processing that the most of us are used to.

I’m trying not to pass judgment on the device, but business is business. So tell us your thoughts on the new Dell Aero via At&t. Look appealing to you or anyone you know?
