Above you’ll see a long stitched image of some WP8.1 UI concepts. Explanations are all in the image. http://i.imgur.com/0WdDvqz.jpg or as separate images here.

It even contains similar notification arrangements as demoed by our very own Peter L, with some added task switching functionality too for the multitask view.

We can but only hope MS is working on continually improving the WP UI so that our Nokia Lumias are as strong on software as Nokia makes them in hardware.

Nokia fans – Vote for the Nokia Lumia 920 vs BlackBerry’s Z10. Smartphone Madness? This is NOKIA!

This again is merely one group of fans vs another. If you follow our Facebook page for MNB Nokia fans, you’ll notice that we sometimes share these Nokia related polls asking you to share your vote.

Well, fans of other handset manufacturers are doing exactly the same and BB fans are doing precisely that in trying to get a win over Nokia fans. Many of you have been super passionate about this particular poll, making sure that we highlight this with the rest of the Nokia fans in our MNB community.

The voting is very close. BB fans are throwing insults on Nokia fans and I reckon you guys should show them what’s what, and who is who in this smartphone world. Looking at the comments on Crackberry, users there are encouraging others to vote on various devices and other scheming ways to rack up votes. We don’t want cheating to take place. We want to win by the strength of our Nokia fans individual votes. :) A win here is a win for Nokia fans everywhere. And perhaps, in a small way, may go to influence potential consumers who might take interest in this Nokia Lumia that keeps winning all these polls. As Tesco’s slogan goes, every little helps! So let’s give Nokia thousands of little helpings :D .

NOKIA LUMIA 920 BBZ10

Nokia fights their fight, and their fans can join along in showing who has the best fans.

Thanks everyone for tipping this in.
