Nokia N950 – Harmattan pre-Swipe UI on protoS1.12 HW0621

I got included in a tweet convo where these pictures and videos were noted in the original thread. It’s the Nokia N950 prototype with pre-Swipe UI, just MeeGo-Harmattan I think. It’s what we were shown in the early days of MeeGo.

SkyDrive’s got an update on my Nokia Lumia 920.

Search your SkyDrive files and folders
New setting for Photo Upload and download size
Support for WP8 (not sure what they mean, I’ve always had SkyDrive)
Updated App Icons and Visuals
11-01-13

There’s an update also to the Nokia Care app. Not sure what’s new. I don’t think I’ve actually used it.

To update, just to to the store and select what updates you want. You might see a few other updates as well from your other apps/games.

At&t Offering $100 Off a Second Windows Phone Device Purchase + Extending Wireless Charging Plate Offer

Posted: 13 Jan 2013 03:43 AM PST

At&t have thrown a bit more spice on the Lumia train (and the 8X) by starting a new promotion where any purchase of any Windows Phone Device will get $100 off a second WP device of the same type. Meaning if you pay the $100 at at&t for the 920; a second 920 (on contract renewal of course) will be free; or $50 for the 820 which will also end up being free.

Buy Any Windows Phone 8 and Get Up to $100 Off a Second Windows Phone 8

Effective January 11, 2013, through February 21, 2013, customers who buy any Windows Phone 8 get up to $100 off a second (like) Windows Phone 8 (e.g., Nokia/Nokia or HTC/HTC Windows Phone 8).

Also At&t have also extended the free wireless charging plate with the purchase of a Lumia 920

Both offers are valid till Feb 21st.

My Dream Nokia #79: Luscious, Luxurious, Aluminium Nokia Lumia 999 WP8 Concept

The Fabula design – it’s simple, yet so wonderfully beautiful. We’ve seen several concepts follow the Fabula theme, and even though they don’t deviate far, it’s enough to look fresh and exciting. This one is particularly delicious.

No other details apart from a 4.3″ screen. The hardware buttons are said to be pressure sensitive (not capacitive) but at the same time, it does not push in mechanically.
