We started making some noise two weeks ago about wanting An Evening With S60 in India and the good poeple at Consumed By S60 have taken notice. They are inviting everyone to propose the names of the next cities that should have this event. All you need to do is leave a comment in this post with your proposed city name and depending on logistics/budget and popularity, the next evening might just be in your city.
If you …

The N78 had started shipping a little while ago in some countries including Nokia’s home Finland. I’m pleased to say that it is now officially available in India at price of about Rs. 19,000 (450$) sim-free. I have been able to get my hands on the retail version and will be publishing my take on it soon. I had previously previewed the N78 here. Meanwhile here is an image gallery for you to check out, in case you want me to address something specifically, do drop a line.

For starters you must be wondering why is there an E90 lying next to the headphones, specially when this is a headphone review. Even if it had to be a phone, why not an Nseries music oriented device that goes well with the scheme of things. The answer is simple.

A little while ago, I found out for myself that Eseriestoo isn’t bad on the inside, if you are willing …

Its true folks. Like its upcoming sibling, the N96 and the already available N81, the N95 too has gaming keys.
