Nokia Connection 2007 Aftermath
Filed in: Events, Gadgets — July 4th, 2007
I attended the Nokia Connection 2007 held at Raffles City Convention Centre, Singapore. Even though I woke up early but I was still late. I missed the presentations in the morning. Anyway, I managed to attend part of presentations in the afternoon, as well as the Nokia Connection Showcase.

What I learned from Nokia Connection 2007
After the annual event of Nokia, I learned that Nokia is pushing Internet to mobile devices. “Mobile will be Internet”, said Dr. Tero Ojanperå, Nokia EVP & CTO. Nokia is promoting web browsing and integrated Internet services in mobile devices. Dr. Tero Ojanperå also revealed that Nokia will release mobile phones with WiMax support in 2008. VoIP call is the future of mobile communications.
Nokia Connection 2007 Showcase
At the Nokia Connection Showcase, a few of new phone models were displayed, such as Nokia 6120 classic, Nokia 3500, Nokia 2930, Nokia 2630, and Nokia 2505. Personally, I prefer Nokia 6120.

Nokia 6120 classic is a simple, slim and light phone with metal body and a big screen. Nokia 6120 is a 3G phone powered by Nokia’s latest S60 operating system. It has a 2 megapixel camera and supports up to 2GB of external memory. If price is not an issue, I will get a phone like this. If I can add one more features to Nokia 6120… it would be WiFi support.
For girls or those who like clampshell phone, Nokia 2505 might be your phone. It has a smooth and ultra-slim design that unfolds into a sleek, curved form. Small and compact. Nokia 2505 comes in 3 colors: Black, Pink and Sand Gold.

My two cents
While we will have WiMax phone in 2008, I am not sure when will WiMax be available in Malaysia. 5 years later, maybe? I am looking forward for mobile VoIP for everyone.
Whether you like it or not, we cannot live without the Internet in the future. Now, every computer must have Internet access. In the future, every mobile phone will have Internet access too. And, Web 2.0 will be integrated into your mobile phone and become Mobile 2.0.
What do you think?
