Look out for the yellow one!
Update: Sorry for the random video – I enabled cross-posting from blip.tv (when not uploading direct from their website) and forgot all about it. I was trying out UpperBlip the Mac client to upload direct from your desktop.
The video is of some ducks at work – a mother with her 10 ducklings (with one solitary yellow one). Quack Quack!
With the long Easter Bank holiday weekend, I was out an about with my new Nokia N95 – and decided that it was time that I put the video capabilities of this powerful handset to the test.
Sunday was a day trip to Weymouth, Dorset here in the UK and with my N95 in my pocket I tried to capture some of the sights and sounds of this glorious sunny day at the beach.
The video below was captured all on a Nokia N95 – all I did was stitch it together with some photographs (also taken on the N95) and added some music all using iMovie.
Alternatively there is a version on YouTube.Video includes:
I am no certainly no expert at videoing or using iMove – The results are far from perfect, and could have been edited down a little bit more. The idea was just to demonstrate how easy it is to get pretty decent content together quickly and without much effort!
Let me know what you think..
I hadn’t really paid much attention until I was reading an article on Darla’s blog the other day that there is in fact another colour N95 being sold – Silver/Grey. It wasn’t until I actually looked at my new N95 to see that it was in fact said color:
As I previously mentioned when Darla got her Pink N95, the official Nokia N95 site lists Plum & Sand as being the only available colours:
I have to say that I was so excited to actually have a N95 in my hands, that I didn’t even notice the colour! To be honest I was a little concerned about the colour choices available (as they are not really me). Being a man of many gadgets the Silver/Grey is just up my street and looks very sexy too!
Update: Just had a look at my N95′s Box and it is marked as CPW Warm Graphite -Â I guess it’s a special edition for the Carphonewarehouse.
I have now had my N95 for a couple of days, and have been out and about after work taking some snaps. I have to say that I have been very impressed with the quaility of the pictures. Macro Mode is just stunning as you can see from the flower pictures at the bottom.
Go to my N95 Flickr Set to see a load more.

Nokia have released a beta version of their Lifeblog software.
The software works best with a Nokia 7610 enabling the user to synchronise messages, pictures and videos with the desktop PC. Lifeblog automatically organizes them into a clear chronology you can easily browse, search, edit, and save.
Even if you don’t have a Nokia mobile – you can still use the desktop lifeblog software to manage your images and videos.
Nokia have finally announced details of the much anticipated second-edition N-Gage. They have removed the MP3 player, made it smaller, added the ability to hot-swap games and have done away with the must jested side-talking.
The device features a smaller pocket-able size, Bluetooth, Hot swap MMC cards, 4096 colour screen, MMS, Email support, JAVA, XHTML browser, WAP, MIDI & WAV ringtones all based on the Series 60 UI.
There is no mention of the integrated camera that had been mentioned by other sites.
Nokia is developing life-blogging software that will enable users to store all of their messages, images and videos and organise them on a home PC. The software called Lifeblog will store the information in chronological order, in you guessed it a ‘timeline’!
Eventually it is hoped that the software will enable the user to publish this information to the web to their own personal blog.
The first Nokia phone to have this pre-installed is the Nokia 7610.
The UK driving laws have recently changed to make it illegal to ‘hold’ a mobile phone. This means that you can now be fined anywhere up to £1000 if you are caught. Handsfree kits are OK, but they still mean that you can get distracted as you reach for the correct buttons on your mobile. Here is a neat idea from Nokia. The device features a remote dash-mountable display and seperate jog-wheel. They directly access the SIM card of your mobile via bluetooth.
