What would you do for a Lumia?

Published by Paul Coombes on August 24, 2012

 

We often see interesting initiatives on our social channels, like followers who shoot 3D photos with their phone or photograph the moon with custom-made accessories. But when Damien tweeted the following, we knew this was on another level:

“@Nokia I will let you paint my car for a Lumia 900. I am serious.” – @skooal – aka Damien, from Wexford

Well, how could we resist such temptation? To physically haul ourselves to the beautiful Emerald Isle (the country itself is reason enough to go!) and jazz up the car of one of our fans, was just too much of a mouth-watering prospect to resist. So, after a few weeks of meticulous planning, hours of poring over top-secret blueprints and a million cups of coffee, we are ready to unveil Damien’s new Lumia car!

The result looks pretty cool too, I’m sure you’ll agree! And if you live in Ireland, you might come across the car yourself (Damien drives from Wexford to Dublin every day). If you do, make sure you take a picture, send it to us on @Nokia and let us know what you would do for a Nokia Lumia! But remember, don’t tweet and drive at the same time (or use your phone at all – unless of course you’re using a hands-free kit. Safety first.)

The lucky winner with his amazing Nokia Lumia combo!

A few tweets later, Damien is cruising along the Irish roads, Nokia Lumia style!

What would you do for a Nokia Lumia? How crazy would you go in order to get your hands on one? Let us know in the comments section or on Twitter and who knows, you might be involved in our next exciting project!

Meizu Russia confirms “Ubuntu rumors”

Yup, just as we’ve told you before, Ubuntu is coming to a Meizu smartphone near you. We still don’t have the official announcement, but details keep coming.,, The latest information (or that’s confirmation) comes from Meizu Russia, which says that Meizu engineers are in fact working on an Ubuntu version of the Meizu MX3. The work is apparently still underway to make things stable, and in the meantime they [engineers] are also working on a new version of Android-based Flyme ROM for both the Meizu MX2 and MX3, adding that Ubuntu won’t be released until the updated Flyme ROM is launched. It is said that Meizu will use Ubuntu as its ticket to the US market later in the year. At that time, we may also see either a revamped MX3 model or the whole new MX4 smartphone that will sport even better hardware under the hood. As usual, we’ll be on the lookout for any news coming from the Ubuntu camp and let you know as soon as we have something new to add. Stay tuned… [Via: GizChina] Dusan has been...

Mad, bad, rad! The craziest extreme sports ever

While extreme sports often seem like masochistic thrill-rides for musclemen and daredevils, they’re not all about brawn. Skateboarding, BMXing, free running, you name a crazy, adrenalin pumping sport and the likelihood is you’ll find someone with a Lumia in-hand. Maybe it’s the smartphones’ creative design or the crazy colours. Who knows? But one thing’s for sure, extreme sports people love to think outside (cartwheel over and jump) the box. To see for yourself, prepare to marvel at the most imaginative sports ever invented. And, please, do NOT try these at home… Human Slingshot Well, this does what it says on the tin. Think bungee cord, a hill, an 8ft jump, a willing victim and a big lake. A quad bike and a bungee cord tug you and your dinghy down the slope and over the jump; the bungee whips the dingy away, and you’re in the air! Definitely not for the weak of heart, but still the closest you might ever come to flying. Train Surfing When waves just don’t cut it for you anymore, you...
