Nokia N82 Now in Jet Black Finish

Nokia announced today that its candy bar smartphone N82 is now officially being sold with a Jet-Black high gloss finish. This phone is practically the same as a N95 with GPS, 5MP Carl Zeiss lens camera, WiFi and more. It also has a Xenon powered flash which is not available on the N95. I don't believe this is the US-3G edition.

Symbian Tip: Install .sis File

If you have a Symbian S60 3rd Edition phone (ie. Nokia N95, N75 or N82) and ran across an application file extension .sis, don't fret. You can easily install this file by downloading it with your phone and install right from the file itself (no need for PC connection via Nokia Installer). I learn something new everyday.

Nokia N82 Smartphone

I didn't know how this one slipped under my nose. Nokia N82, the little brother to the N95 is available for sale at Buy.com for $480 unlocked. This bad boy is feature-packed. Like its N95 older bro, it has 3G (WCDMA 2100... not US friendly), integrated GPS, QVGA screen, WiFi 802.11b/g, Symbian S60 3rd edition, 5MP Carl-Zeiss, and 100MB of free memory with MicroSD expansion slot. This phone is basically functionally identical to the N95 w/o the dual slider function.

At $480, you've got to ask yourself one question. Should I spend $20 more to pickup the N95-3 from Amazon.com where I get US 3G support, and a slider keyboard?
