Mobile With The Guru – Ep 27 – N97 and N79

After several weeks of unexplained hiatus, I’m proud to bring you a new episode of Mobile With The Guru, episode 27. The first part of the video is recorded with the Nokia N97, without any microphone attachments, and the camera positioned ~1 meter away from me. I think it turned out rather well, though it’s [...]

Mobile With The Guru – Ep 26 – Netbook, Naturally

Apologies for the unannounced hiatus on Mobile With The Guru – we’re back in action, now, and should have a fresh episode for you every Thursday, again. This week, though, I took a break from the norm of mobile phones to chat a bit about my Dell Mini 9 netbook. This little-bitty laptop makes it [...]

Mobile With The Guru – Ep 25 – On Site At SXSW

You didn’t really think I’d go off somewhere without recording an episode of Mobile With The Guru, did you? Of course not. Episode 25 is straight from the halls of SXSW, which took place in Austin, TX this past week. I’ve got Ewan, from AllAboutSymbian.com with me, sharing some thoughts about SXSW, as well as [...]

Mobile With The Guru – Ep 24 – E63 And Facebook

This week I’m taking a look at the Nokia E63 vs the Nokia E71. Both are candybar smartphones with a full QWERTY keyboard, but each offers its own special feature. We’ll have a full in-depth comparison of these two phones soon, but in the meantime, tune in to determine which would work better for you.
Also, [...]

Mobile With The Guru – Ep 23 – Hands On With The E75

This afternoon I was lucky enough to spend some time at the Nokia office here in Dallas, TX with the Nokia E75, which was announced last week in Spain at the 2009 Mobile World Congress. I’ve started this week out with a few thoughts on this phenomenal new smartphone, and decided to spend the rest [...]

Mobile With The Guru – Ep 22 – Mobile World Congress 2009

Coming to you from outside Sagrada Familia, this week’s episode takes a look at the S60-related announcements from the 2009 Mobile World Congress. There’s news of the Sony Ericsson Idou, as well as the Samsung OmniaHD (i8910), the LG KT770, and Nokia’s 5 smartphones that were announced this week. I’ve also got some thoughts on [...]

Mobile With The Guru – Ep 21 – Facebookin’ It

Episode 21 – Facebooking from Ricky Cadden on Vimeo.
For Episode 21, I’m shooting outside the Facebook office, in light of this week’s news that Nokia and Facebook have been poking each other about some integration, and also Skyfire has integrated Facebook into its homescreen and browser.
I’ve also got a sneak preview of the T-Mobile Shadow [...]

Mobile With The Guru – Ep 20 – Thinking Green

Episode 20 is a new experiment that I hope you like – you might be able to tell that I’m using a green screen. While still using the Nokia N95 to film myself (and the N79 to record the background), I edited this video using Sony Vegas, and I think it turned out rather well. [...]

Mobile With The Guru – Ep 19 – Camoflage

Yeah, you guessed it, I’ve definitely mentioned NaHiD’s new Camo theme in this week’s episode of Mobile With The Guru, showing it off on my Nokia E71, though it’s also loaded on both my N79 and the 5800 XpressMusic. If you don’t know, you can check it out here.
Also in this episode, a sneak peak [...]

Mobile With The Guru – Ep 18 – Context Aware

This week I wanted to share some thoughts on the new developments around the Palm Pre’s WebOS, with its context awareness. I’ve always said that ‘technology should enrich and enable your real life, and not get in the way’, and I think that Palm has grasped that better than anyone with their WebOS.
Also, we’ve got [...]
