You have to build structures (towers/bridges etc) for your monkeys to climb, get the bananas and reach their destination. Your building material at the start is bamboo but you’ll also get coconut and vines. The amount of material you have is limited so create wisely. It must support the weight of multiple monkeys crossing it and behaves with the usual expected set of physics (your structure might not even stand to begin with if you do it wrong, and then it might break if it’s not strong enough when monkeys get on it) There are 5 different islands, 45 challenges in total.

There is no subtitles on the video but tipper, Z Z, kindly sent us a translation which reminds me of the strange dialogue that also accompanied the N9 promos in China. He says he’s Chinese but his main language is English so be aware the translation might not be perfect but it gives a better gist to us who haven’t got a hope at all of grasping anything.

Here’s the advert we heard was coming back in March when John Kruk was reported to be advertising the Nokia Lumia 900. http://mynokiablog.com/2012/03/20/john-kruk-recruited-for-nokia-lumia-900-advert-thom-gruhler-as-corporate-vice-president-wp-marketing/ It’s OK I guess. The angle here is the ESPN app, but they also talk about the camera (then snapping a quick picture subtly) and then mention the screen that’s visible outdoors (though no mention of Clear Black Display or actual demo of the screen, instead a simulated one (but I guess everyone does this). What strikes me as funny at the end is the contrast to the very first (and poor ads) about Windows Phone, the one that shows everyone engrossed in their non-windows phones which gets them into trouble or lose sensory perception of things around them

There’s now 90,000 Apps for WP marketplace. Rafe has the usual breakdown of the details as always: http://allaboutwindowsphone.com/news/item/14819_Windows_Phone_Marketplace_pass.php This makes it a total of (probably?) over 200,000 apps available collectively for all Nokia devices, were we to measure it like that – I mean, Nokia Store is itself a collection of apps for different mobile OS and variants. To reiterate however, I’m not fussed on numbers. I care more about quality.

The gameplay is thus about getting the planes to the right landing tracks.

White Phones: Glossy vs. Matte the Verdict. (Plus Stormtrooper Beauty)

(Plus Stormtrooper Beauty) Aliqudsi | May 13, 2012 | Comments (34) Just a quick point-out a lot of people where asking why the white Nokia phones are Glossy rather than having a Matte finish like the rest of the set (Cyan, Black, Magenta); well the reason can be seen in the photo above- one Redditor posted the above picture of his HTC OneX (which copies the use of the Polycarbonate body from Nokia) except that the White OneX has a Matte finish rather than a glossy one- which lead to the dyes and colors of his jeans rubbing off onto the phone- a huge shame, since the white OneX is pretty damn sexy as well (but not in the same league as the stormtrooper). *TO be fair the dyes were wiped off with a damp cloth but still matte finishes definitely don’t mix with white.

This is presented as the two best alternatives to the iPhone. I found the comparison to be very fair. He’s also got an excellent speaking tone, no? Michael says that even though on paper the Lumia seems less capable, on day to day usage his experience is more fluid.
