With the end of the week we have another good opportunity to quickly review some of the interesting nuggets and news bytes that could pique the interest of the mobile developer and mobile solution architect. I sat in on a livestream from Nokia this week.. yes indeed they are still alive and well! The event was streamed to introduce us to Nokia’s first Windows Phone 8 devices (the Nokia Lumia 920 and 820). The crew is stoked about WP8 and Nokia is really keen on you developers getting on board and creating apps for WP8. I’ve shared some notes and comments from the Nokia livestream here, including an apology video from Nokia on the 920 video mixup! For enven more mobile awesomeness I highly suggest you spend 20 minutes and have a listen to the awesome James and Stefan as they bang out another intoxicating editon of voice mail, a mobile mobile news roundup podcast.
