Fish_Nokia.jpgThe Sun UK reports that, a guy called Andrew lost his Nokia cell phone as it fell from his pocket into the sea. One week after Andrew had lost his cell phone and he was roaming around with his girlfriend, her mobile rang and to her amazement it was Andrew’s number. When they spoke to the guy on the other side of the phone, who happened to be a fisherman by the name Glen, they came to know that Geln has found Andrew’s cell phone, no not on the sea florr but inside a Cod fish. When glen was gutting his daily catch he came across Andrew’s cell phone inside its stomach. The best part is that after Andrew got the phone, he dried it out and to his amazement the phone is still wokring. I guess Nokia should use this peice of story for some kind of viral marketing about the robustness of Nokia phones after the recently uncovered Nokia 5800 Speaker fiasco.

The god of all Mobile site and blogs, Mobile-Review based in Russia has got its hands on some really speacial news. According to the site, all the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic phones that were manufactured before Feb 2009 come with faulty speakers. This has also been confirmed by Nokia. So if you are one of the buyer then you might be experiencing this problem with your speakers and if not then the problem might come soon. Nokia has also realized this problem and has come up with a statement saying that, this issue was there and the company has sorted that out. There has been no fault in the manufacturing process of Nokia, which is very robust, but the speaker supplier took his task lightly and so this goof up. But this is a real big problem for Nokia because they sold some million Nokia 5800 XpressMusic phones and having 1 million customers pointing fingers at you is not good. Before this also, Nokia’s quality control has gone for a toss and some people also faced a problem with their earpiece, which you can fix easily on your own.
