Photos from Nokia Design Day 2009. The event, held at Nokia's London design studio offers the 'inside story' on some of Nokia's design projects. This year the topics included iconography (a global design language), gestures (future interaction methods), homescreens (empowering users through personalisation), and the Nokia N97 (merging the physical and online world).
The Gaming Icon
On the bottom of the slide are some of the icons that were used previously (or concept ideas). The dice were associated with gambling, not gaming in general, and the o's x's were associated with board games. The joypad was the best universal icon.
We'll have more coverage from the Nokia Design Day on the site next week.

Comment: There probably won’t be too many phones released this year that will rival the Nokia N97. The buzz around this cutting edge Smartphone has been building for months, making it one of the most hotly anticipated handsets in quite some time. At Mobile Phones Direct we have the edge on most competitors and will be shipping out the N97 mid-June to our Nokia Retail customers direct from our Nokia Retail Stores.

Comment: if they dont release something better than the N97 to compete or atleast a full touch handset they will lose market share as they have been doing, because ppl that are due for upgrades will go with the new iphone or scores of other competitors, e.g. the omnia HD. It will into N97 but its better than losing market share disappointing scores of customers will weak hardware, no 3d hw, and a resistive screen.
