Eldar over at Mobile-Review has posted some pictures and the rumored specifications of the X2-01. The Nokia X2-01 looks similar to the Nokia C3 except that it lacks Wi-Fi. The X2-01 will be sporting a 2.44-inch QVGA display.Nokia_X2_01

The phone will also sport 2G (no 3G), Bluetooth, FM Radio and a microSD card slot. The back of the handset also sports a 3MP camera without flash. The handset will also feature two dedicated buttons for music and messaging. It's evident from the specs of the handset that Nokia will be positioning the X2-01 a slot below the C3.

Nokia will be targeting the X2-01 towards emerging markets like India and Brazil.

Michael Dell Says Developing For Windows Phone Is Easier Than Android

Posted: 02 Nov 2010 05:59 AM PDT


Speaking at an event in Hong Kong, Michael Dell has been quoted saying that developing for Microsoft's Windows Phone  platform is easier compared to Android, based on the feedback he got from developers. The comment is quite interesting given Dell has two firsts, Dell Venue Pro, their Windows Phone and an Android based tablet – the Dell Streak.

Developer enthusiasm is crucial for the success of Windows Phone 7. According to reports there are close to 12,000 registered developers for the platform and more than a 1,000 apps in the Zune marketplace. Considering that Windows Phone 7 devices are yet to launch in the US, there seems to be fair amount of momentum.

Michael Dell acknowledged Android's lead over Apple and said, "What’s interesting about the smartphone space is how it’s changing into a more open-modular system. It’s staggering that Android has now surpassed Apple in terms of originations and this is happening at a much, much faster rate than what folks had envisioned.”
