content: Years ago, one of the rovers on Mars - I forget if it was Pathfinder or Sojourner - anyway, one of the first photos it took was of its solar panels. And the electrical cabling on it had been arranged in such a way that it clearly spelled "ET". Coincidence, or engineer silliness?

content: I'm still using a Nokia N900.Awesome phone, runs full Linux OS (unlike android) .I can run any Linux app out there, even stuff like the full Open Office suite (albeit it slowly)32GB of onboard ram plus up to 32GB of microsd. And the camera takes awesome macro pics.I've had it 2 years now. Will probably upgrade to Android next year or whenever some decent quad core + highres phones come out.

content: I have always used Nokia phones until now.What on earth possessed them to turn to the dark side(windows mobile).......If they went for Android on the other hand, that would be a great thing.This could be the end of Nokia IMHO.Regards

content: When I recently fixed up my old 5110 I noticed that smiley, too. Made me smile aswell.Btw. the 5110 is a lovely phone, just a phone. I love the ridicule I get when I pull it out in company.

content: I would love to see Nokia remake the 8110 with a color screen. That was a nice phone.I have to admit, i have an Android phone capable of all kinds of things. But, at the end of the day, i use it to make phone calls, thats about it............Regards
