Nokia Lumia magic tricks at Social Media Week opening in New York [Video]

It's Social Media Week (13-17 February) and Nokia, the global headline sponsor, has a few magic tricks to show off using Lumia Windows Phones. They hid two magicians, Matt & Prakash, in a secret trophy case accessible only by using Foursquare at the opening event of the Social Media Week.

This fits in nicely with Nokia's promotion on this side of the water, using London black cabs. Check out two more clips after the break, note that the third magic trick doesn't exactly use a Windows Phone as a prop.

Should you not already have the Social Media Week app, you can download it for free from the Marketplace.

  • Still not seeing any advertising here in the US, WP7.5 has missed it's marketing window. So, WP7 wasn't marketed properly, WP7.5 wasn't marketed, do you guys really expect MS to do anything different from this point on? Hell, they are so clueless they had to ask us for advice! That's pathetic. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm pretty positive about my negativity.
