Nokia news, reviews

I read this comment posted in response to a couple of articles pointing to reviews on All About Symbian-

“Why are you qouting AAS content ? Supply a link if you feel a need, but I think it looks better when you supply your own, original content..”

When I started this blog it was done on a whim and I expected it to be read by only a handful of people- over the past few weeks it has mostly been in the top 20 of blogs on WordPress with a high point of number 5 (sadly when I took the screenshot today it dropped a little to number 26:))

My history with the web is mostly with www.palm247.com and www.windowsmobile247.com which are obviously sites dedicated to rival mobile platforms. They have been much more successful than I ever expected and with a small amount of work I can trawl up countless bits of interesting news for owners of these devices.

With a blog dedicated to one single device on a brand new operating system that developers seem less than willing to support at this time finding interesting news and writing original content can be either too time consuming or more likely impossible to find. I also write for PDA Essentials and Palmtop User and thus time is precious, especially with a young family and a full time job.

I will continue to point this blog to articles that are E61 related on other sites as I feel that certain people like Steve and Ewan deserve as many hits as they can get. If you take a moment to think about the Symbian web presence these two guys are right at the top of the tree and do an awful lot to help out thousands of users.

The other reason is because there is not much software being released currently and sites like e61life, E-Series and Techmundo are doing a superb job of finding original content for E61 owners and useful tips that I simply don’t have the time to root out.

If there is something specific you would like to see on this blog please post a ‘constructive’ comment and I will do my best to include it or if you have some original content or reviews you would like to submit just drop me a line at .

Finally and nothing to do with all of the above- my E61 battery is now draining after only one day- no Bluetooth on, no constant GPRS connection and brightness at three quarters. Any ideas?:)
