White Nokia Lumia 900 Leaked?

Yesterday Nokia announced that they would be launching a white Nokia Lumia 800, with the announcement of the new Nokia Lumia 800, Nokia posted some photos of the device to their Facebook page.

It would appear that someone at Nokia made a mistake, and instead of posting photos of the white Nokia Lumia 800, the photos were actually of a white Nokia Lumia 900 which has yet to be announced.

According to the guys over at Pocket Now, the photo is believed to be the internal version of the Nokia Lumia 900, which has yet to be announced, and we can expect to see the device launch at MWC 2012 later this month.

The international Nokia Lumia 900 is expected to share many of the same specifications as the US version, which include Windows Phone 7.5 Mango device and it features a 4.3 inch AMOLED ClearBlack touchscreen display with a resolution of 800 x 480 pixels.

Other features include a a single core 1.4GHz processor, plus a rear facing 8 megapixel camera with an f2.2 Carl Zeiss lens, the rear camera is capable of recording HD video in 720p, up front we have a 1 megapixel camera with an f2.4 lens and the device comes with 16GB of built in storage.

EA Battlefield 3 : Aftershock App Lands In US iOS App Store

In last August EA announced the development of a new iOS version of its popular Battlefield games. Now without any warning EA has dropped Battlefield 3: Aftershock into the US iOS App Store.

The new iOS game released by EA is now available to download for free but hasn’t brought with it any of the mentioned modes or features which EA was touting back in August and during its previews.

Battlefield 3: Aftershock is currently only available to play in multiplayer modes and no single player game has been enabled or included at this time. Other features missing include the “Horde-like” wave mode and EA has only added 4 different weapons at this stage, including your knife.

It seems that the game might have been released a little ahead of schedule as there doesn’t seem to be any way to ad any extra features either, via playing or payment. But if you fancy giving the multiplayer a go Battlefield 3 : Aftershock now available to download from the US Apple iTunes App Store for free.
