Nokia has partnered with South African media and marketing news site Bizcommunity.com to offer journalists at the title Nokia N82 phones for newsgathering.
The devices will be used to produce multimedia reports for the site using the five megapixel camera and ‘DVD-like quality video capture’, an announcement from Bizcommunity said.
The phones also feature a one-click upload function for publishing online.
Nokia has previously had its N95 model trialled by Reuters and South African journalism students.

This is a great movement in the African mobile phone scene. it is showing how us as Africans are beginning to become aware of the other ways mobile phone and technology can influence our lives.

Nokia phones are the best phone investment that you could make. Year after year they have been providing quality phones for consumers. Unfortunately the new Nokia phones can cost you an arm and a leg, especially an unlocked Nokia N82. I found a great site to find unlocked Nokia cell phones from auctions. I bought 2 Nokia N82 cell phones for me and my wife, and we love them. Check them out at Unlocked Nokia Cell Phone Auctions. Just my 2 cents.
