Nokia latest to feel wrath of Jobs

Jobs Halo

I replicated this on my Nokia N97 mini

Just tried the same 'death grip' on my Nokia N97 mini as shown in the video with similar results.

5 bar 3.5G signal (central London) lost at least 2 bars and came back when I held it gingerly by the middle.

Can't speak for other phones, but as a long time Nokia user have always rated Nokia highly for call/voice quality. It seems in the age of smartphones the tightly packed electronics/antennae are more difficult to get right.

Steve J may well be telling the truth here

Electronic bookmarks?

@AC: You could 'bookmark' multiple pages in an electronic book and 'flick' between them with 2 key presses.

Have you ever used an electronic book reader for more than 5 minutes in a store? They are not perfect by any means but do provide a useful way to carry more than 1 book with you.
