Let’s start with some history and the numbers […]

Free Form Widgets – another photoshop fail? Or sneak peek into PR3.0/Belle?

| May 8, 2011 | 30 Replies

As a follow up to the Symbian Free Form Widgets (that we thought were going to be a part of Symbian^3’s PR3.0/Belle/UI overhaul update. From the tiny little images, we now have them in full size. http://www.nokia-smartphone.de/n8/ Apart from the clock working, the “widgets” are really just link placements. I don’t know why they would […]

WP7: Poor sales?

The Qt version of TwimGo and Kasvopus are now available free at Ovi Store. Both these applications are the work of Qt Guru, Tommi Laukkanen, who’s going from strength to strength with his Qt projects. Nelisquare being the latest. Kasvopus is a Qt facebook client. Not feature packed but I prefer it over Nokia Social. […]

Today seems to be, every post will have Tommi Laukkanen’s name on it. That’s just coincidence that I remembered I had posts about his apps to write about but didn’t have time what with ongoing exam revision.

Remember Tommi Laukanen and Son with their Doodle Drive Game? In similar strides, Tero Paanen and his sons create Angry Monsters. An Angry Birds esque project for Windows Phone. Catapult, aim, throw, bricks come crashing down and kills/maims/startles said enemy. There’s a tiny difference in that you can pick up that thing you throw and […]

Ganesh and Kunwar has emailed us in a couple of images that show the new free form widget UI in the homescreen expected in PR3.0/”Belle”. Cheers also to Adnan for reminder tip. Oddly, this was leaked on an official Nokia channel, NokiaHomebase. As you can see, the widgets aren’t confined to their usual enclosures, looking […]
