Yesterday, Nokia Australia confirmed the rollout in a press release (below). In case you don’t know, Nokia Music+ has several benefits over regularly Nokia Music, including:

Lumiapps: SIMS Medieval exclusively available for Nokia Lumia Posted: 26 Mar 2013 01:46 PM PDT
EA’s SIMS spin off, SIMS Medieval is now available on Nokia Lumia Smartphones. You can download this here (4.99USD/3.99GBP):
The more Nokia exclusives I see comments from consumers, be it Nokia developed apps, Nokia exclusively brought apps, Nokia specific WP features, Nokia support, Nokia design, Nokia hardware the more I see how peeved they are that they’ve ended up using WP on any other platform other than Nokia.

PC Advisor crowns Nokia Lumia 920 as most desirable smartphone Posted: 26 Mar 2013 01:36 PM PDT
Over at PC Advisor, they’ve stacked up all the latest smartphone competitors. Astonishingly (or not) the winner is the Nokia Lumia 920.
This was based on a poll to which the 920 gained 32% of the votes. Cheers ms.nokia for the tip! |
Access Point and Feedback to nokia Updated for Wp8 Posted: 26 Mar 2013 11:52 AM PDT Once again “Access Point” on Windows Phone 8 lumias has been been updated (with no visible changelog); also updated is “feedback to Nokia”. Although there is no changelog I can’t help but notice that Access point keeps getting unlisted updates, and I’m not even exactly sure what it does; but could there be some bug Nokia’s trying to fix? |
Nokia Transit for Asha now in Beta (Asha Full-Touch) #Here Posted: 26 Mar 2013 05:49 AM PDT The extremely useful Nokia Transit app (Still not called Here Transit for Asha huh?) is now available for Full Asha Touch devices. Nokia Transit gets you from A-B using public transportation. It tells you even how to get to a bus stop (through walking directions) tells you what bus service/train service to catch, how to get to a station, where to stop over etc. Source: Beta Labs Via: GSM Arena Cheers Alvester for the tip.

Double tap to wake and FM Radio coming to Nokia Lumia 920 and 820? Posted: 26 Mar 2013 05:31 AM PDT @Joao Luis C tweets that the double tap to wake as seen in the Nokia N9 is coming to the Nokia Lumia 920 and 820. This was a very nice feature in the N9 as you could tap the screen twice to wake it up as opposed to pressing the lock button on the side. A nice option to have . Further more it seems that the FM Radio is going to be activated. The hardware is there but for some reason, it didn’t make an appearance to the end user. I’m not sure where Joao has got this information from but it’s a more than welcome addition. We need more, not only from what was great from Nokia in the past but to integrate new and highly requested features that Nokia hasn’t had yet. Update: This is also another source:
MS is working on bringing back FM Radio (why it disappeared in the first place, makes sense possibly only to MS). Nokia is also bringing their own addition to the next ‘minor’ update to WP8, including the aforementioned double-tap to wake. Other additions include:
Available in ‘the coming months’. Now I also want always on standby screen from Symbian/N9. Yes, it might need AMOLED (but I’m sure some older Symbian devices with LCD had this option, no?) Cheers Ilama for the tip! |
