Not at Nokia World, still fancy a Meet-up with a Ton of Bloggers?

As you might know by now, me and a bunch of bloggers from all over the World will be in London next month for Nokia World 2010! Since we know that Nokia won’t go with our “ye giant meetup” plans, my friend Micky Aldridge, of Nokia Users and NokiaDNA fame, immediately suggested to do a little meetup. Said and done, and thanks to the ever awesome People of WOM World Nokia / 1000 Heads we had a location ready. Drinks and Snacks will be served by the Team as well, which is truly appreciated.

So if you can’t make it to Nokia World, but are in or around london at the time, make sure to drop by and say hello. have a relaxed chat with us about tech, phones, or just say hello! There are a ton of bloggers on the Micky’s list already, so if you wanna have a great evening with Micky, Dan from World of Nokia, Rafe of AAS, Nirave or myself, pop over to NokiaDNA for all details, times and more!

New Toy in the House: retail Nokia C6

Nokia C6 Version 2, originally uploaded by HellMichael.

You may have seen my prototype Nokia C6 Coverage on Fonearena already, and this week i received a retail device, thanks to the awesome Folks of Nokia Austria. I got the black one, my colour of choice and i already love the 4-row keyboard, which is the definitive highlight for me, next to the price of roughly € 250,–, contract free.

I’ll shoot the “official” Picture Gallery in the next few days and will put up some more thoughts over on Fonearena!

All Hell will break loose at Nokia World 2010! :D

Yes thats right, I just secured a Deal with Nokia Austria for Nokia World 2010 in London!! I will be in London from Sept. 13.-16., making the most of my time over there, visiting Nokia World, WOM World Nokia/1000 Heads and more. I’m also extremely looking forward to meet fellow bloggers again, some people i already know and hopefully some new contacts as well. This is not an all expenses paid trip, which means i’ll sort Hotel and Flights on my own, but i’m just happy i dont need to pay the ridiculous 700 Euro for the 2-day ticket.

The Goal is that Nokia Austria teams up with me to bring some exclusive live Coverage, as well as Pictures, Videos and more, in return for the Ticket. Additionally i will cover everything thats going on at Nokia World for Fone Arena readers, so whatever is going on, you will read/see it at www.fonearena.com first.

Nokia World 2010

Nokia World 2010 is shaping up to be the first thing of many to come, in Nokias plan to get revenge. Nokia knew that they messed up in the past, big time. faulty hardware, buggy software and lots of stupid decisions. they have lost a lot of space to the competition, mostly Android and Apple in my opinion, and with that in mind, Nokia will fight back, full steam ahead. I am pumped and excited to see what they have in store for us!
