"spam" comments released

Hey guys,

I checked the blogger spam filter (for the first time ever) and saw some comments were blocked.
There were only a few comments in there, but they are now online.

I have no idea why they were blocked... at least one of them was a "double post", so there is one reason, but the others seemed to be fine to me.

Sadly blogger.com doesn't allow me do edit or disable the spam filter, so I guess I have to check the spam inbox from time to time.

So just that you know it:
There is no moderation on comments going on here!
If your comment doesn't appear right after posting, something went wrong.
If that happens feel free to post your comment again...

more small news...

I updated the conclusion in my last review:
Review: High Capacity Gold Battery

Some things needed to be corrected and that's done now.
There will be another update of that review, I am trying to contact ecell to get more details about the gold battery.

Btw. I uploaded the latest Nokia Store v3.28.025 (Beta Labs) in my tools section...
The new store offers login via facebook account (seriously, was that necessary!?!?) and claims to fix some bugs of previous versions.
You can find more details here http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/store-qml-client

Review: High Capacity Gold Battery (2430mAh)

The Nokia N8 is shipped with a 1200mAh battery by default.
At today's standards that's not very high, but thanks to the Hardware and Software optimisation by Nokia it is not bad at all...

I already published a Review about the battery life of Nokia's original battery on my CFW:
Review: The One v4.7.1 Battery Life

As you can see there, the battery lasts long enough when you use it carefully. But there's still room for improvement...

I had very good experience on my old Samsung I8910 HD with non-original batteries.
After Leno (a user of my CFW) recommended me the "gold battery", I though why not giving it a try on the Nokia N8.

short heads-up

i continued to work on the design of my blog... somethings are under the hood, but i think you can see small changes when scrolling through blog entries and pages (especially "download" and "tools").

also after using the gold battery for a week, i think i got a good impression about that battery.
i started to write the review, it will be online in the next few days, maybe even tomorrow (depending on how much time i have to write).

let me know if you have some futher suggestions/wishes about the blog design and arrangement...

Review: Nokia N8 Case Replacement (disassemble and reassemble)

After one and a half year, my N8 got some scars and scratches. It definitely didn't look like a new phone anymore.

I didn't really care about a few scratches, but after the bottom clip (or battery cover, or however you want to call the lower plastic part) broke off I had to do something to fix it.
