Gallery: Nokia Experience Lounge
Published by Rafe Blandford at
As part of Nokia's Open for Ideas event I spent some time at Nokia's Espoo offices in Finland. At one end of the building there's a Nokia experience lounge where you can see all of the latest products and get demos of the latest services. Here's a quick visual look at some of the products and demos.

In one corner of the room there's a set of shelves with many of Nokia's older devices. Included here are some classics including the N-Gage and Nokia 7700 (the test Series 90 device).

The phones were fully active (charged and SIM card inside); giving a chance to try any of Nokia's current portfolio of phones. The phones were stuck to the wall via magnets. This collection consisted primarily of the Series 40 range, although the S60 6700s had snuck into the bottom,

Nokia E5 from the back
Note the large metallic back cover - this makes the E5 feel more expensive than the E63.
