http://cache.gawker.com/assets/images/4/2010/02/500x_nokia-orion1.jpgThe phone-botherers over at Recombu (http://recombu.com/news/ovi-orion-the-phone-we-wish-nokia-would-make_M11366-1.html#photo) have cottoned onto the fact that there's not a single perfect phone built for gaming on. Not even the iPhone, regardless of what the advertising tells us. So they've created a Nokia concept, the Orion.
Like N-Gage 3.0—but actually looking halfway decent—the Orion concept would be aimed at hardcore gamers who feel like smashing their heads against a brick wall every time they play Klondike on a BlackBerry or Bejeweled on Windows Mobile. It's a heartfelt plea from those who remember the Nokia N-Gage glory days, and who realize there's a major gap in the market waiting to be snapped up.
Check out the video concept below. [Recombu (http://recombu.com/news/ovi-orion-the-phone-we-wish-nokia-would-make_M11366-1.html#photo)]
