Nokia strikes back.... or do they?

As I was browsing the internet, searching for the latest technology invention or rather upgrade, came across the Nokia Lumia 800 that was launched 6 months ago.

6 MONTHS AGO! One can only imagine my surprise, what happened to advertising or plain old marketing? why I know about this? I then felt obliged to ask my classmates if they've heard about such an upgrade, and as I had presumed they had no idea. I was not the only one with her head buried in the sand. I had to take a moment to digest this sudden in take of information, I decided to had straight to the I.T nerds of U.J and find out if they knew anything bout this. I did not even finish my sentence before they started correcting me and giving me more detailed information about this software. I was gobsmacked. Is it a thing of if you are not a I.T geek then you don't know about this? what is going on with nokia's communication strategy?

To educate those of you who like me have no clue what the Nokia Lumia 800 is. "It is a windows powered smart-phone, it uses microsoft mobile operating system" www.coolest-gadgets.com. It also brings along improvements on battery performance and power mnagement. With the amount of social networking people do nowadays, I guess thats a vital feature. "It also has an 8 megapixel camera and internet explorer 9, wich makes internet browsing faster" www.nokia.com.

I couldn't possibly leave it at that, I was itching for more information, so I went to our dear old wikipedia, "the Lumia 800 comes with 4 Nokia exclusive applications, Nokia drive, turn-by-turn navigation system, Nokia maps and app highlights. it also won editors choice award of 2011 what mobile magazine"

I sure do hope that next time Nokia advertises their inventions to the general public not just the geeks.
