Ovi Contacts web has recently been updated and now lets you use your contacts in both Ovi Mail and Ovi Suite, with more Ovi services to follow suit. Most of the new Ovi Contacts work was done under the covers, but you can see minor UI changes that make your first use easier; for example, contact and group creation now has better usability, and the Contacts list view now allows you to see and sort 100 contacts at one time. The product has gone through a public beta and revamped with user generated feedback in mind.

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.
