Charlie and Vanessa?

So Nokia's newest is called "Charlie", Nokia's 7210 was called Vanessa and if I am not mistaken Nokia's 6230 was called "Matrix"! What other prototype names have there been?

Just for the fun of it!

Eldar is right, other than hearing and reading it myself, i can easilly tell it by looking at the graphite cover and the standard screen7.gif of mine.

i may not be correct, but i think 6230 had a variation codenamed morpheus, not sure if it was for different region or something.

I was recently able to access a beta version of pc suite V6.0.1.

There was a number of new proto names memtioned:

Astrix,
Catalina,
Charlie,
Erin,
Neo,
Travbadix,

Some we have seen before some we have not.

Sadly not, I very much doubt that anyone of them will be S80, as they normally (well have done in the past) have there own Pc Suite.

I would assume that there are an even spread of s40 & s60 devices.

Nokia are trying to fully intergrate there s40 & s60 Pc Suites, so the scope of support doesn't have to span such a wide range of software suites.

The list also memtioned the 7610, 6620 & 7700. (amoung loads of other test units. 7200b for example)

Don't you think that some models may not have a number yet, that is the point of a project name?

Erin is the Communicator 9500

I also know Charlie, but can't remember the model name... It's silver; software much like Catalina. Gotta get back to you on that one.


The project names are used to keep track for the developers/testers/engineers...

I had a program once which displayed the prototype-name of the device. But I'm not sure what it was. I think it was a cell-tracking program. Well, it displayed device "3650" and codename "Calypso" when it was running on my 3650...

And maybe Travbatrix = Troubatrix (some guy from the asterix & obelix comic)

Cheecko, when the phone is in under development, mean when a co decides on a new phone (laying down the blue print and stuff) they dont give then codes like 6600,7610 ets right a way...they give them code names like these. matrix,king...w/e etc. for keeping it a secret, officials within the co refer to them (phones) with their names.

immy,

Officialy the Nokia 6600 under development was Calimero... The King is just a name given by phoneshops, but has got nothing to do with the names Nokia give to there phones...

Nokia uses codenames to phone when they are in devellopment for several reasons:
- to make it more secret (if a phone calles 6240 for example, and it leaks out, everybody know there is going to be a successor for the 6230; but if they call it 'Niobe' nobody know what type of phone it will be)
- When a phone is under devellopment, nobody really know how the model will be numbered (7600, 7710, ...), this is a pure commercial naming, being done just before launch... You see in rumors that the names changes. It's not even sure the 7710 will be called the 7710 on launch...

Numeric model codes look much more cryptic to me

I really doubt it has anything to do with secrecy. Moreover what is successor or predeccessor of what can be only decided after sales start - phones are not coming out in order of their model number.

I think you are trying to find a meaning where there is none. Every project or task in any industry have a codename just to address it somehow. Actual commercial outcome usually has very little to do with original project. Project may have whatever name - just disctintive enough, while commercial product must follow some marketing rules in order to be successful on the market. Thet is why the same brand could have a different name for a different market (I bet everybody knows the story of Chevrolet Nova when it'd hit spanish-speaking market)
