In another WTF moment for Nokia fans after reading the email title and Engadget article of Nokia selling Qt licensing to Digia (another Finnish company whose software products we’ve discussed here now and again) as a logical progression of Nokia’s alignment with Windows Phone. Glancing at it, it seems Nokia is giving up and selling […]

Yesterday we saw Kasvopus, a new project from Tommi Laukkanen that brings a very promising facebook client to Nokia Devices. The only one so far comes by way of the frighteningly bad Social App produced by NOKIA.
