On 5th May 2012, we were invited to Nokia Lumia sponsored Dew Xtreme Tour at The Great India Place, Noida. Before the event there was a awesome performance by band The Aphids. Before the crowd could get a breath, it was VJ Ranvijay to steal the show. Ranvijay kickstarted the main event. There were athletes of world fame, who have individually won not one but multiple X-Games events and are big names world-over in Xtreme sports. It was tough to click the pics as the athletes were moving at high-speed, hence images are blurred at many places. Actress Gul Panag was also at venue (whose pic we will share later).
All the pictures here are untouched and directly from camera, no processing is done or whatsoever. We did our best to get you the best shots possible so please do your bit by clicking on Like/Tweet/Share/Leave a comment. Thanks to @NokiaIndia for inviting us to the venue and enjoy the event.
After the February 2011 announcement that Symbian will be dropped, Nokia was heavily panned for its decision. As a Nokia lover and long time user of Symbian, I am no different. Symbian, in my opinion, is the original smartphone OS and Nokia will be abandoning it in favor of Windows Phone. Nokia market share was sliding with advent of iPhone and Android jumping in competition. Nokia was to blame for missing out on huge opportunities. Nokia was eying on keeping the price low while other manufacturers were either keeping prices dirt cheap or giving devices the premium price tag, of course with better responsive touch phones.
Microsoft on other hand had already burned it’s hand twice in mobile business. Windows Mobile steadily rose to its peak in 2007 and fell faster than Jack and Jill. Microsoft also came up with it’s own hardware too, I’ll be too happy it was named something “Kin”. Microsoft faced flak after failure of Windows Vista but it came up with Windows 7 to counter. In mobile world it has failed in both OS (Windows Phone 6) and hardware (Microsoft Kin), Microsoft only bet being in mobile business was Windows Phone 7.
Did two ailing companies make a success story?
