The Nokia Lumia 900 will be launched soon and really soon. I was thinking to myself that I might just take sometime to announce it on my blog just in-case some people have not heard about it.

I am not going to lie to you but I have not used it personally but I cant wait to get my hands on it.

So far the reviews on this phone have been very positive and most people in the industry think this would be the one to finally give windows phone the push that it needs to enter the Smart Phone OS market.

Features

• Operating System: Windows Phone 7.5 Mango
• Memory: 14.5 GB
• Camera resolution: 8 megapixels
• Display Resolution: 800 x 480 pixels
• Display Resistance: Scratch Resistant Gorilla Glass
• Video: 720p video
• Integration with Xbox

Windows Phone 7.5 Mango to me is a really interesting OS that is definitely different in every way from the competition. Microsoft did a good job with it and I think they have a winning formula with this Mango release. The Lumia 900 comes with everything that you would need in a smart phone and the price of $99.99 is worth having a look at.

With windows phone's share of the market being insignificant and RIM's (Research In Motion: the makers of Black Berry) share falling to rivals like Android and iOS, this should definitely be the phone that changes the game for Windows Phone. In my opinion, a lot of the success of Windows Phone and Microsoft up coming Windows 8 depends on this phone. If Lumia 900 is successful then I think windows would now have the right kind of hardware manufacturer that would be able to showcase the beauty of the new Windows ecosystem that Microsoft is building.

If you are still one of those who think that Microsoft's windows phone SUCKS, then I think you should try this this phone. At $99.99 there is no reason why you shouldn't try this.

Nokia Exec says iPhone, Android Handsets No Longer Appeal To Youth [My Comment on this article]

I read an article on Tech Crunch[Nokia Exec: iPhone, Android Handsets No Longer Appeal To Youth] today and i left a comment that i felt i should share on my blog.






My comment


I dont see what is wrong with his statement. According to the numbers he is looking at there is a growing niche in the market for something different and they feel that windows phone is what everyone will soon turn to. 


Also what is wrong with talking trash about your sompetitors even when your product is not yet the best, i clearly remeber the late Steve Jobs dong that a lot even when apple was not good enough to compete with windows. 


My question to the authur of the article, do you think windows phone sales will not shoot up when microsofts project with windows 8 if finally complete? To the untrained eye it looks like Microsoft is loosing out in the mobile and desktop markets but if you have taken even a sencond to look at Microsoft you would notice that a lot of changes are taking place. Have you even considered the potential impact of windows 8 and what it would mean to Nokia? 


I kind of understand why Mr. Niels Munksgaard would talk like that, its not due to arrogance and being blind but he has some insight that you do not have.
