MeeGo’s official user interface guidelines could easily end up determining whether the platform sinks or swims — no one wants a phone whose UI looks like junk, after all. The minions at Nokia and Intel’s little pet project have posted new OS shots as examples of how to properly implement the interface in third-party apps, and we’ve got to admit — things are looking a lot cleaner, prettier, and generally more modern than the first round of pictures we saw back in June , thanks in part to a demonstration of the platform’s comprehensive theming capability that can totally revamp how UI elements look.

The nerds over at Mobile Geek Inc did a nifty investigative piece revealing more details about Nokia’s mid-level C6-01 candybar. After making an awkward early appearance on Nokia’s Dutch online storefront, more pics along with the user agent profile have been located thus confirming its lack of QWERTY, 8 megapixel camera, and Symbian^3 OS.

Well, it looks like you can finally get rid of that less-than-stable pre-alpha release of Fennec (a.k.a.

The upcoming C7’s been well-leaked at this point, but one thing it hasn’t undergone is the famously exhaustive Mobile-review once-over that takes weeks to read and even longer to digest. Actually, this isn’t so much a review as a “first look” based on prototype hardware — and as such, it’s quite a bit shorter — but it still gives by far the best, clearest, and most in-depth glance at Nokia’s second Symbiam^3 device to date

Nokia is being coy this morning by revealing a trio of pictures of what it only describes as its “new device.” Of course, being a devoted Engadget reader, you’ll instantly recognize the visage above as that of the Nokia 5250 — the already leaked successor to the 5230 ( aka the Nuron ). Specs are promised for later today, so contain your excitement until a more civilized hour.

There’s brave talk, there’s foolish talk, and then there’s the 5nm line that separates the two. While LG’s Chang Ma didn’t seem to be dabbling in either during yesterday’s Wall Street Journal interview , some subsequent revelations from the financial paper do quote him straying into daring new territory.

Sure, it’s just boring ol’ component news but you can guarantee that this advance will affect the appearance of Sony (and Sony Ericsson) products some time soon.

And now the cycle is complete. What started as a single mention on a leaked slide has slowly evolved into a full-blown video preview of Nokia’s unannounced C7 handset. The cats at the Chinese site zol.com.cn took the time to fuss over the Symbian^3 candybar’s stereo speakers, 3.5-inch multitouch display, support for Flash banner ads (presumably via Flash Lite 4.0 like the flagship N8 ), and the ability to charge off Micro USB or Nokia 2-mm connectors (also like the N8)
