Proporta Kindle 3 Alu-Leder Hülle Review

 

Seit einigen Wochen bin ich ja schon Besitzer eines Amazon Kindle, in seiner dritten Version. Nur knapp 2 Wochen nach meinem Kauf kam Amazon mit den neuen Kindle Versionen, aber okay, das bleibt wohl eine andere Geschichte. Ich und mein Glück. Anyways, ich lese gerne Bücher im Bereich Horror/Thriller/Mystery, leider wurde es platzbedingt etwas knapp – Grund genug mir einen Kindle zu besorgen, nach diversen positiven Empfehlungen aus dem Bekanntenkreis! Gesagt, getan, ein paar Tage später konnte ich mich bereits mit dem exzellenten Kindle System vertraut machen und was soll ich sagen, ich liebe es! Selten habe ich ein Gerät gesehen, dass so gut den vorgesehen Zweck erfüllt! Doch….

Review: The two Faces of the Nokia Booklet 3G

I remember this Day pretty clearly – the August 24th, 2009 was the Day when Nokia decided to step foot in a new Territory, my favourite Brand from Finland (and quite frankly the only Brand from Finland i can remember right now lol) has unveiled the Nokia Booklet 3G. “After more than 25 years as a pioneer and leader in the mobile industry, Nokia will bring its rich mobility heritage and knowledge to the PC world with the new, Windows based, Nokia Booklet 3G” stated the Press Release that hit my Mailbox this hot August Day. To be honest, I had no Idea what Nokia was up to at that Point. Why trying something new when the “rich Mobile Heritage” is obviously limping? Why not trying to do what they did best the last 10+ years – impress me with cool Handsets? I was fed up with Nokia at that Time and i am not completely recovered yet. Software and Hardware Faults, useless Updates of already existing Devices and much more has dominated my View at Nokia at that Time, and here they are, floating out a Netbook.

I was skeptic, had no Idea what to think about it, but i wanted to get to know the Booklet. My very good Friends of WOM World Nokia have contacted me recently and gave me exactly that Opportunity – giving me some Time with the Nokia Booklet 3G and see what it’s all about. Keep in Mind, I’m far away from being a Computer Expert. I learned over the Years how to burn a CD, but please don’t ask me deep technical Details, i just don’t know. With that in Mind, i spent two Weeks with the Booklet (Thanks again to Nokia Austria for helping out with a Euro Charger Cable) and here’s what i have in Mind about it:

Nokia N97 and Nokia N82 video face-off

I received my Sennheiser CX300-IIs today, so I thought why not record using both phones. They’re now breaking-in thanks to the N97 (and Pink Noise)

First Impressions of the Booklet 3G – by Mona and Michael

Well well, i thought i’d never lay my hands on a booklet 3G. it’s something i don’t see using myself too often. It’s simple: I use my Phones (currently N82 and/or HTC Hero) for Mails/Tweets etc on the Road, while at Home i’m using my Acer Aspire 6930ZG, a 16″ Laptop with lots of power. I’ve already been reading some first Hands-on reviews, which were a mixed bag of nuts and so was i when i received the trial invitation by my good friends of WOM World Nokia! I wasn’t sure if i’m the right person to review a Netbook, since i’m not really a PC Expert, but what the heck, i love new challenges, so why not trial something different!?

It took a few Days to get this Thing started, cause unfortunately WOM World has sent the Device with the standard UK charging plug, which does not work here in Austria. Well, mistakes make us human i think, things like this happen. Cool Thing here is, that Nokia Austria has helped me out with a “Trial Euro Charging Plug” (Conclusion: it works! lol). i got the new plug on friday, which was the day when my lovely girlfriend Mona came over to stay here for the weekend…

I like the Nokia N900 because…

DSC016671There’s a Thing in my Pocket, but it’s not one, it’s many. Remember this Line? Sounds familiar? If you follow Nokia for a long time, like i do, this line will pop straight up in your Head. This was the main advertizing line for the late great Nokia N95, a true Flagship in it’s own Right. Since then, and of course N82 Times, Nokia has almost always disappointed. From the chrome-pealing N76, to the Disaster named N85, to the latest so called Flagship N97. Most of you know that i don’t use a Nokia Handset as Main Phone anymore, i’ve switched to the HTC Hero some Time ago. If this isn’t an Indication of how Nokia messed up recently, then i don’t know what is.

But, it seems like there is Light on the Horizon, a new Breed that i think brings back a lot of disappointed Users to the Nokia Ship again. What i’m talking about is the Device on the left Side, waiting to unleash Hell – The Nokia N900. Equipped with Maemo, the linux-based Open Source Greatness that i was able to try on the N800 3 years ago. and boy, Maemo has changed – to the better. For the first time its featuring Phone Features, which makes the N900 not only a great Internet/Media Device but a PHONE as well!

Nokia has done a Lot of things right on the N900. My Lists is what i personally thought of the N900, what appealed the most to me, what made me happy about the Device. This may not cover all Features, as i wanna keep it personal. It won’t appeal you as mindblowing Factor, but what i’m about to mention is what i enjoyed the most. Ready? I like the N900 because…
