Advertisements One of the really nice features in Symbian^3 is the AMOLED screen can always show the time even when the screen is locked (or you can have some other screensaver). I find this incredibly useful – when checking the time, I can just glance without unlocking. It will also show any notifications, like missed […]
Last year we were so excited about the potential of MeeGo. Demoes looked good given the time frame and we were hoping for a MeeGo Phone release at Nokia World 2010 that would signify the come back of Nokia. Lateness of the N8 meant that instead Symbian^3 became the star. MeeGo was pushed aside for […]
Not sure if you’ve seen this yet but here’s Microsoft’s 234″ touch screen demo of the Mango Update for Windows Phone 7. It’s interesting that at the very most, you can only interact with half the screen. Still cool though. The Metro Themed presentation was designed by Stereolize: A new touchscreen interface by stereolize. Since […]
This may seem like a rather insignificant matter to quite a few of you that neither use and/or have become accustomed to warranties lasting for the full length of the life of your device. In countries like the US, Singapore and formally Australia, unfortunately, the default warranty available was 12months with an extra year available […]

Quite a bit of it is surprising to me especially with so much talk about […]
We’ve seen the AR drone being controlled by the Nokia N900. Now you can control your Symbian^3 powered device, complete with camera feedback from the quadrocopter back to your, say, Nokia N8. The app is available at Ovi Store, but of course, you would need to get a compatible QuadroCopter first too :p http://store.ovi.com/content/109585 Longer […]
Check this out, it’s a very unique and different twitter client. It has a very interesting UI, good use of animations, lending to an experience which is very polished. I don’t know if it’s the most efficient twitter client but it’s definitely a lot of fun. It’s called Different Tack, by FluidInteraction. What a perfect […]

ThePhoneArena folks review the Nokia Astound (aka C7). It’s a pretty good review, covering a broad range of points including the often missed call quality/reception/battery life. The review is on the whole positive except for the web browsing experience which I cannot defend. Thank goodness for Opera Mobile 11. One solidly built handset all around. […]
