You of you saw this coming? Well, I did… as soon as I saw the EDU section of Youtube a few months back, I knew then that Youtube will soon be charging people for the information and video that they have… in a commission basis with the creator of the vidoes. But of course the obvious pay-per-view section of yutube is in movies…. and according to CNET news, Sony and Google are cooking up something like that for the Pay per view section of Yutube.
Here’s what we read:
Nokia E71x The Nokia Open Source Phone
Posted by: admin in Gadget, Mobile Phones on April 10th, 2009
Another little smartphone that created quite a bit of interest was the AT&T exclusive Nokia E71x. Much like the original Nokia E71, the E71x is a very thin device weighing just under 4.5 ounces and comes with a 320 x 240 QVGA display, full QWERTY keyboard, 8 GB storage, high-speed 3G connectivity, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, and a 3.2-megapixel camera. Mark Louison, President, Nokia Inc. said, “The E71x is a lean, mean multimedia machine for busy people who want Internet-on-the-go capabilities in the palm of their hands.”
This skinny Nokia comes with an upgraded Symbian S60 with Feature Pack 2 (which features a handy “Show open apps” option throughout all apps) as well as some AT&T services such as AT&T Music, AT&T Mail, and AT&T Navigator. It even has support for QuickOffice. The best feature is probably the new lower price of 100 USD after mail-in rebate. The Nokia AT&T E71x should become available within the next few weeks.
While the Symbian isn’t open source yet, that is due to change in the first half of this year.
