TP Friends, let's treat this as another TechPinas Gadget Bonanza; I want to see one of you win this!

Last December 29, Nokia Philippines posted a status update on its Official Facebook Page stating that if the company gets 100,000 likes on FB before 1 that afternoon, they'll give away a Nokia N9 unit.

My Nokia N9 : I love this phone! Crafted from single polycarbonate block, MeeGo-powered Nokia N9 sports an 8 MegaPixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics, a high definition video recorder, and Wifi, 3G and Bluetooth connectivity support. The specs are hot but what I find really cool about this handset is the gorgeous MeeGo user interface, which you navigate simply by swiping. Nokia N9 Swipe experience grows on you, really. In fact, I sometimes catch myself swiping from below the screen of other touchscreen phones to close an application.

And because Nokia fans in the Philippines - called Nokianatics - are quite simply the best, they made it happen.

As promised by the Finnish company, here are the mechanics to get a chance to win an awesome Nokia N9 via Nokia Philippines' Facebook Contest:

• Take a creative photo of yourself with an "I'm proud to be a Nokianatic!" fan sign (include your Nokia phone in the photo.) Send us a copy of your photo via email at nokiaphilippines_fb@ovi.com along with your name, age, address, mobile phone number, and Facebook URL to join the raffle. Deadline of submission is on January 13, 2012.

• Nokia Philippines will raffle all the entries and there will be 1 lucky winner of a Nokia N9. The winner will be announced on January 14, 2012.

It's that simple!

So what you waiting for TP Friends?! Send us your fan signs now! Let's win this!

"Nokia is Nokia," I always say. Reliable phones; Reliable after-sales service.

Nokia today announced the availability of the Nokia Asha 200 in the Philippines – a colorful Dual SIM phone with a full thumb-type QWERTY keypad for fast messaging.

The Nokia Asha 200, which dons an official suggested price of Php 3,500, flaunts Nokia's Easy Swap feature for convenient changing of SIM cards without the need to turn off the phone or remove the battery. The phone allows up to five SIM cards to be personalized and managed, so that calls, texts or web browsing can be enjoyed with minimized costs and maximum network coverage.

Available in a wide range of vibrant colours – including Graphite, Pink, Aqua and Pearl White – the Nokia Asha 200 is the perfect phone for staying connected. It includes a dedicated key for immediate access to favorite email and chat services through Nokia Messaging, and features an SMS view that shows an entire text message chain on the screen, to make chatting with friends easier than ever.

With support for up to 32 GB of additional memory, music lovers can take their entire collections with them, enjoying favorite tunes through high-performance 106 phon loudspeakers and enhanced stereo FM radio, as well as an FM recording feature that allows users to record songs directly off the radio.

The pre-installed Nokia's Communities application allows one-click sign-in to multiple social networks, letting users view, post, comment and update their status as well as share photos from networks such as Facebook and Twitter directly from the homescreen!

Nokia Asha 200 is now available at all authorized Nokia retailers across the Philippines.
