First looking at the lighter side of the things today. Nokia India Website Needs an Update. It still has on its Main Page Free N-Gage Title Giveaway Tab. Now, that has been over since 31st Oct. 2008, the details of which I mentioned here. Don’t know why the Web Team has not updated it as yet. But this is totally misleading and the worst part is it takes you to the N-Gage Homepage, although not bad but still no mention of any free title giveaway on that link. Wake Up Nokia India, Stop Fooling People. Anyways it was a bit funny 
, but if Nokia has extended the campaign, then its good. I have yet to get an official word on this, but I did a double check and guess what, the campaign is now closed. So a thumbs down for the official site for providing misleading information. Wonder why haven’t anyone called in their lawyer as yet 
LOL. We have a few screenshots below. I have written to the web team, lets see if we get a reply on this.

Good News for all North American Nokia Fanatics. It’s a great chance to get your trial Package for Free Voice guided Navigation along with Nokia Maps. I recently go a mail form Nokia which contained information about the Free trial they were offering to their North American consumers. This is something superbly awesome. I had a great experience with the Nokia Maps when I was in the US earlier this year and really like them for they really helped me move around. Only if this offer came then, it would have made my day, but nevertheless I feel its a great opportunity to try them out and see how they fare. The most important part I would love you guys to try is the Pedestrian Mode. Do give me feedback how it goes. At the moment only a few handsets are supported for the trial but I feel more will join in. Happy Navigating ya’ll 
. But I am still waiting to see Public Transit Facility. Hope Nokia puts that in asap.
I am still waiting for Nokia to expand their coverage in India. But things don’t seem to be working. Recently Google Maps added a whole lot of new Indian towns to its coverage and at the moment it’s the only one that has proved to be of some help for me .
How to get My Free Trial*?
To activate your free navigation trial (E71, N78, and N82):
1. Open Nokia Maps on your device

On my way back from hospital where I am doing my orthopaedic clinical rotations this weekend I took a break and sat down near a river where I wanted to spend sometime exclusively alone thinking of nothing. I did manage to take a few shots with my N95 8GB but as I was watching the water flow, with a calm breeze having that hint of scent of the brackish H2O cycling down my tracheobronchial tree I suddenly realised there are a whole lot of things in a today’s Smartphone which we hardly use. So keeping these in mind I decided to write about them here. I would begin with the one that I feel is the least used feature here in all of India. Any guesses…? Well, it’s none other than the Secondary Camera on your high end Symbian S60 devices.

For sometime I had decided not to write about the Leaked part of the Symbian Industry but they just keep on happening. But nevertheless I want my users to be up-to-date with the latest happenings in the world of S60, thus I am going to make a quick mention of a new device which was leaked. It’s the Wahoo, Nokia’s half QWERTY Flip Device which will be available with AT&T. Following is a quick picture courtesy BGR. The name has not net been finalized and thus it is code named as Wahoo
