Who doesn’t like to buy mobile phones from internet? But the problem occurs when you aren’t able to find a good and reliable phone selling website other than the regular ones like amazon and ebay. So my quest for finding a good and reliable mobile selling website ended when I found Phones2UDirect.co.uk. Whether you want to buy nokia mobile phones or any other, that isn’t a problem at this site. You can search the models of your favorite phone manufacturer. And yes all the latest and coolest phones are available here.

For finding the right phone for yourself, just go thorough the mobile reviews. They give a perfect glimpse of the features the phone offers.

While browsing through this site, I got a glimpse of the upcoming Nokia N96 phone. They have given a short review on it and are waiting for the release of the phone to give a full-fledged review. So keep your fingers crossed and look forward to a rocking phone from Nokia.

As we had hinted earlier, the Linux-based Nokia N810 internet tablet is now official. This palm sized PC connects to the Internet via wi-fi and can have a Bluetooth connection with a cellphone. The slide out keyboard is a highly desirable option and can give the iPod touch some run for money.

GPS navigation is built in and the unit comes loaded with maps to let you go to any particular point of interest. 2 GB internal storage is available, but with a 10 GB memory card stuck init could carry some serious amount of music. You could carry your videos, if you prefer and view them on the 4.13 inch screen at 800×480 touch-screen. Though that is not an improvement over the earlier N800 model, it does improve in terms of a 20% brighter screen and a 400 MHz processor. Looks like a pretty attractive deal at $479, ships in November.

Well it seems like Nokia is now affected by the vast majority of battery recalls hitting companies. The only battery affected is the BL-5C which was manufactured between December 2005 and November 2006.

Mobile handset manufacturer Nokia today issued a product advisory to recall close to 46 million Nokia-branded BL-5C batteries manufactured by Japan-based Matsushita Battery Industrial between December 2005 and November 2006.The company stated that in rare cases, the batteries could potentially experience overheating initiated by a short circuit while charging causing the battery to dislodge. The company has received more than 100 complaints of overheating globally.

Nokia is working closely with Matsushita, and will be co-operating with relevant authorities to investigate the situation. Nokia has several suppliers for BL-5C batteries who have collectively produced more than 300 million BL-5C batteries.

In order to determine if a battery is subject to this advisory, it is necessary to remove the battery from the device. A Nokia battery will have “Nokia” and “BL-5C” printed on the front of the battery. On the reverse, the Nokia mark appears at the top and the battery identification number (consisting 26 characters) is found at the bottom. Consumers should refer to this identification number to determine if their battery is among the batteries manufactured by Matsushita between December 2005 and November 2006.
