Price Drop: Nokia BH-102 Bluetooth Headset Now $2.99 After Rebate
Hello everybody, we keep our eyes peeled for new Nokia Cell Phone Deals and this is a sweet deal we just ran across and wanted to share, check it out.
The Nokia BH-102: $2.99 After Rebate
Nokia is really clearing out these BH-10x headsets. Not too long ago the BH-102s were going for $7.18 after rebate - now they’re $2.99. Maybe in six months they’ll be paying YOU to take them away.
At any rate, the BH-102 is your typical no-frills Bluetooth headset. It is, in my opinion, a zero in the looks department. However, it does support the Bluetooth 2.0 + EDR specification, which should technically mean less power consumption. It’s rated at 10 hours of talk time, you be the judge.
The Deal
Buy.com is selling the BH-102 for $17.99 with free shipping. Combined with the Nokia $15 Visa card rebate, that’s $2.99 when all is said and done. Note that the condition is “New in Poly-Bag” - that means OEM.

Grab PaintPad for 5800 XpressMusic [Freeware]
Grab PaintPad for 5800 XpressMusic [Freeware]
Put that stylus to good use with PaintPad.
One thing that irks me about the 5800 XpressMusic are the little oversights that I come across. You know, small little things like being unable to select multiple items in a list, or an email application which is supposed to have Home screen notifications, but doesn’t. Things that should have been caught during testing.
Take the stylus, for example. It’s great for taking notes, writing quick messages, or sketching something off the top of your head - right? Unfortunately, you can’t do any of those things because the 5800XM lacks any sort of drawing application. SERIOUSLY. (Side note: while you CAN use the stylus to type out text messages or web addresses in the browser, it’s not too accurate, nor is it quick.)
And that leads us to: PaintPad for the Nokia 5800. Freely available on the Nokia Hong Kong site of all places, and something that should have been included with the phone in the first place. PaintPad is an easy-to-use drawing program that allows you to draw freehand, throw in some lines/shapes/text, undo and redo your actions, and save your creation for later use. You can also load an existing image or take a picture using the camera. There’s even a nifty option to turn off auto-rotate. It’s like a mini-Photoshop for your 5800.
Pretty much the only flaw I can find with the program is that it can’t draw curves correctly - it uses lots of lines in pencil mode which means lots of hard edges (see screenshot above). Still, it’s not a big deal and the application is still way awesome.
Download PaintPad for the 5800 XpressMusic (698k, signed sis file)
While you’re downloading PaintPad, check out the Nokia 5800XM Application Page - there’s around 25 or so free applications that can be had here. Note that some applications, however, may require your phone to be from a certain region (namely Hong Kong). I also find it a little funny that some applications are zipped up, yet there’s no zip client available on the 5800XM.

Are You Paying To Much For Nokia Phones?

YAPD: Nokia E63 Now Down to $199.99
YAPD: Nokia E63 Now Down to $199.99
Some pretty ridiculous price drops for the E63.
Amazon has cut the price of the Nokia E63 phone again, this time to just a shade under $200. Fully unlocked, with free shipping and (probably) no tax for you. What’s not to like?
For those who need a quick primer on the E63, it’s essentially a more affordable version of the high-end E71, without the GPS or the “high-powered” 3.2 megapixel camera. Whatever, as a trade-off you get a coveted 3.5mm audio jack and more battery life than the latter. And like the E71, you still have that quad-band connectivity, 3G, Wi-Fi, Symbian, extensive email features, and a nice large screen.
Deal: Samsung WEP200 Bluetooth Headset for $7.99 After Rebate
Samsung WEP200: No style awards here.
In case you didn’t get in on the previous BH-102 and BH-101 Bluetooth headset deals (or maybe you just prefer non-Nokia headsets), here’s another: the Samsung WEP200 headset for $7.99. After rebate.
It’s no looker, but judging from the reviews, the WEP200 is fairly dependable (4 star average review, 695 total reviews), supports Bluetooth 2.0 (+EDR), and is wearable on either ear with the included ear hooks. Only thing that could be better is the battery life, which tops out at about 4 hours of talk time.
The WEP200 is being sold by Amazon, which is always a plus.
Bonus: you also get a travel charging and a charging case. I say, not bad.

New $50 Nokia Rebate Makes E63-2 $149.99, N85 $280.00
This is getting a little ridiculous. A couple days ago, Amazon reduced the price of the Nokia E63-2 (North American version of the E63, which is itself a lower-priced version of the E71) down to $199.99. Today, Nokia released a $50 Visa card rebate, effectively dropping your cost to $149.99. Best of all, the rebate is valid for several other phones as well.
