At the Intel Developer Forum in Beijing in April 2010, the new software platform MeeGo was demonstrated on a variety of Internet connected devices from a netbook to Internet TV to smartphone and digital coupon machine with RFID. MeeGo 1.0 is the first version that comes from merging Intel’s Moblin and Nokia’s Maemo, so check out the videos after the jump to see what kind of things you can expect from MeeGo in the near future.

Rounding off the trio in todays announcement, we see the first addition to the Nokia Eseries range that incorporates the new naming convention. The Nokia E5 is designed for those that want to be productive in both their professional and personal lives, the Symbian S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 2 based Nokia E5, follows the successful blueprint of devices such as the Nokia E72 and Nokia E63. The Nokia E5 combines high quality business features with all of the personal networking and entertainment capabilities that a busy professional expects from a smartphone. At £160 before taxes and subsidies, the Nokia E5 is expected to be available in Q3 2010.

The second device unveiled today was the Nokia C6, a Symbian S60 5th Edition smartphone combining the benefits of a 3.2 inch touch screen with a full slide out keyboard. The large screen provides a great Internet experience, as well as offering access to Facebook feeds directly on the homescreen. A full suite of email and social networking capabilities means that the Nokia C6 is perfect for people who want to stay up to date while on the go. At £195 before taxes and subsidies, the Nokia C6 can not only be your social hub, but also provide you with complete voice guided navigation whilst on the go straight out of the box.

The mystery Everyone Connect countdown finally ended today and the curtains were drawn back revealing three new Nokia devices. First up is the Nokia C3, which is the first Symbian S40 6th Edition device to sport a full QWERTY keypad. This cute little candybar is also the first in the range to enable access to social networks directly from the homescreen. You can view, comment, update your status and even share pictures to your favorite social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter. At an estimated price of £80, before taxes and subsidies, the Nokia C3 is definitely going to shake things up by setting a high standard for such low costs.

Nokia has set up a countdown on an event page tagged as ‘Everyone Connect’. We’re not too sure as to what exactly this countdown may be about, however rumours indicate something to do with messaging, possibly an Ovi Maps/Nokia Messaging integration. More rumours are guaranteed to emerge within the next 20 or so hours that are left, so in the meantime let us know what you think it could be about after the jump, or maybe what you think it should be about.

Nokia has stuck to its word, and has increased the compatibility of Ovi Maps v3.03, which provides free voice guided navigation on Nokia handsets. The announcement today is that you can now utilize both walk and drive navigation on your Nokia E71 and Nokia E66 for absolutely no cost whatsoever. This news comes after the announcement of the Nokia N86 8MP, which also recently joined this exclusive bunch. The compatibility of Ovi Maps v3.03 has now reached around 14 devices, and more and more handsets will gradually be supported. To get started, download the Ovi Maps 3.03 instillation file from our S60 3rd Edition Applications page.

The Nokia N97 has just received a new firmware update taking it up to v21.0.102. There is no official changelog however reports suggest that the new update includes a mass memory content update feature for the newer models, desktop installation files of Ovi Suite 2.0 and Ovi Player, and preloaded maps data along with the new Ovi Maps v3.3 with free voice guided turn-by-turn navigation. New firmware updates also generally contain bug fixes and optimizations necessary for the software on your device to perform properly, therefore we recommend you always keep your device up to date. The new firmware will gradually make its way round to you over the coming weeks depending on your region and product code.
