And here's another Chinese clone, this time of the yet unavailable Nokia AEON.

The device is called GF-W168 and features a dual-touch display similar to the original, a touch-sensitive keypad, a 3Mpix camera, stereo Bluetooth, media player (3GP/MP4 video), dual band GSM connectivity.

Well, close enough to the real thing, but still not the same.

Goldstriker International, famous for making gold and diamond versions of popular gadgets, including phones and players, has added the 24 k Gold Nokia 8800 Arte to their collection.

The phone should be available by the end of January 2008 in the UK for GBP749.95 or $1489.70.

Nokia has once again delayed the launch of their N-Gage First Access service due to “unexpected difficulties”, as they say.

The delay shouldn't be long, but we definitely won't see the release until 2008.

Five pictures of the new Nokia N96 have recently leaked in the web.

They are nice, but unfortunately as always pop up without any details about the device itself. Basing on images we are able to find just a few specifications.

Well, N96 is a black slider phone, similar to the N81, with a 5Mpix camera with Carl Zeiss optics, a dual LED flash, and external music controls.

Chinese site ZOL has published a bunch of photos of the yet unannounced black Nokia 6300.

I must say that the phone looks simply great; the new black finish will definitely make it even more popular than it is today.

With almost no patience we wait for the official announcement...

Starting next week, Nokia will be launching a limited pre-release version of its long-awaited N-Gage service for the Nokia N81 or N81 8GB handsets. As it is not a full release yet, users will only have access to "one or more N-Gage games".

In addition, the company has opened a "First Access" forum to collect users' feedback and suggestions on improving the service.

Nokia Medeo is the company's new ad-supported mobile video portal that has been launched recently.

It provides additional entertainment for Nokia handset owners with the "latest on everything from red carpet news, interviews with your favorite TV and movie stars, film trailers, fashion and music".

The new Nokia N95-3 firmware update v.11.2.009 is now available for download for US users at http://www.nokiausa.com/A4410025 .

One of the Nokia's bestsellers, the 6300 received a new Black color scheme.

This is good news for those who didn't want to purchase the phone because it wasn't black. The handset itself looks stylish and offers most of the features one can expect from a mobile phone today.

No word on availability yet.

Here's another Nokia phone concept, called the Nokia Eco Sensor.

The device consists of two parts: a cell phone, and a watch bracelet that monitors the weather, user's health and environment conditions and transfers the collected data to the handset via Bluetooth.

Nice, but not impressive.
