"This is Lumia" light show seen by thousands live in London

Will the Nokia Lumia 920 take Windows Phone 8 to new heights?

For the second straight year, Canadian performer and DJ deadmau5 lit up the dark skies of London with a light show to promote the latest Nokia Lumia models, the Nokia Lumia 920 and the Nokia Lumia 820. This year's event included a concert that was held at the Electric Brixton following the light show. Last year's celebration was for the Nokia Lumia 800 and Nokia Lumia 710 and was held at the Millbank Tower in London.

Nokia said that thousands showed up for the event which was also streamed to the rest of the world. The Nokia Lumia 920 is off to a great start, having been sold out already in some countries. Nokia has high hopes for the handset. Just the other day, we passed along a video from the phone's designer that explained some of the thought process that went into the design of the Windows Phone 8 powered model.

Those who would like to see Windows Phone 8 make a move on Android and Apple have been looking for the one breakout device that would catapult the platform into the mainstream and beyond the same way that the Motorola DROID did for Android only three years ago. It would appear from all indications that the Nokia Lumia 920 will be the candidate. Whether or not it can do for Windows Phone 8 what the OG DROID did for Android is another matter although at least one analyst sees it coming.
