It seems that Nokia are gearing up for another surprise announcement on the 14th of MAY in London UK. This is great news which shows Nokia’s dedication and commitment to expand the Lumia range. So what would Nokia Announce on the 14th? Well rumours are floating around the web that its a 41 MP Lumia, nomatter what it is I think we are all proud of Nokia for their dedication. The Lumia range is growing and besides a 41 MP Lumia it would be interesting to see a QWERTY Lumia in the coming future.

In what is believed  to be a phone manufacturer first, Nokia is providing the mechanical drawings for the Lumia 820’s back shell so you can modify and enhance the design then print it out on a 3D printer.

Now it’s up to you to come up with practical, innovative, or downright crazy concepts to put onto your phone. Some ideas we had include:

Backs

  • Built-in belt clip or loop
  • Attachment point for camera accessories
  • Raised texture for non-slip grip
  • Winding post for headphone cable

Mounts/holders

  • Car mount
  • Bicycle mount
  • Backpack hanger

Accessories

  • Camera accessories
  • Extra SIM or MicroSD holder

Visit Nokia’s  3D printing wiki page to learn more and to download the files to begin designing and printing.

Modern Propaganda Posters (Smartphone Etiquette)

The folks over at The Art of Manliness, put up a great set of vintage propaganda posters addressing a common modern social behaviour problem (Smartphone Etiquette). The posters are great and they remind us of simple ways to respect ourselves and others while on our smartphones. We all can relate to the messages in the posters and we all had encounters with at least one situation mentioned in the posters. Enjoy the posters.

The Lumia Blog Windows Phone Application

I have been receiving many user reviews and comments about The Lumia Blog Windows Phone Application, and I would like to thank all the readers of The Lumia Blog for their amazing support. I have been working very hard to find out why the embedded videos were not working on the app, and I am happy to say that the problem is now solved. I have tested the app with some older posts and the videos should be working from now on.

I have also updated the Application Support page on the blog which guides visitors through several ways to follow The Lumia Blog.

I thank you all again for your tremendous support and would appreciate if you can keep me updated on your experience with the app, and if you have any comments and suggestions.
