It's the start of the new week, and there's nothing to add a little flavour to your Monday morning like some Nokia Nuggets, our roundup of the key stories and reviews that have been keeping us busy over the last week.
After a fairly manic few weeks packed with exciting announcements, things have just settled down a little in the land of Nokia. And that's great, as it gives us the chance to delve deeper into the new devices, technologies and services that matter.
The past week we've been focusing particular attention on Symbian Anna and Nokia's excellent range of QWERTY phones, so let's check out what we've been saying:
Getting to know Symbian Anna
With both the Nokia E6 and Nokia X7 now officially on sale, Symbian Anna is very much here, and we've been running the rule over the Symbian^3 update in detail to give you the full picture of just what it offers. In the past week alone we've covered the Symbian Anna browser, the calendar, and the portrait QWERTY keyboard in a series of in-depth hands on reviews.
Nokia E6 and QWERTY
And speaking of Symbian Anna, the Anna-infused Nokia E6 plays a starring role in our focus on Nokia's range of QWERTY devices. It's a range that has you covered whether you're looking for a powerful business phone like the Nokia E6 or a social all-rounder like the Nokia C3. Either way you're getting a top-notch QWERTY handset.
Nokia N9 vs Nokia N8 – the differences explained
The Nokia N8 has been leading the line for Nokia's smartphone division admirably, but in the Nokia N9 there's another high-end handset looming large on the horizon. So where are the key differences to be found, and what is their significance? We've been taking a closer look at just these issues.
Nokia Maps 3.08
Some updates are bigger than others, and there's no doubting that Nokia Maps 3.08 beta is a big one. It doesn't mess with the key Nokia Maps appeal, but simply raises the quality level with a bunch of great new features designed to deliver a richer, safer and above all better service to drivers.

Nokia Windows Phone: calling all app developers
Windows Phone is coming, and for developers it's a massive chance to embrace a platform everyone is expecting to grow significantly over the next few years. For its part, Nokia couldn't be doing more to make the transition to Windows Phone a smooth one for developers – we've been checking out just how.
And finally...
We all know the Nokia X7 is distinctive and powerful, but how does it face up to its rivals head to head? Well, Daily Mobile has surfaced a video of the Nokia X7 compared to the toughest rival of them all – the Apple iPhone 4 – and there's one or two eye-openers well worth taking a look at.
That's it for this week's edition of Nokia Nuggets. We'll be back at the same time next week with more top Nokia stories to kick off your week in style!
