Markk117 found what appears to be a video sample from the newly announced Nokia N9. This records 720p video at 30FPS with stereo audio recording. Why not 1080p? Possibly a variety of reasons.

An alternative to Morpho QuickPanorama “Nokia Panorama” is now available at the Ovi Store for free. In contrast to Morpho, the detail seems MUCH higher with the Nokia version.

Here’s a neat application that you would have thought was already in your phone but isn’t. What’s great about it is that it will allow you to edit your custom dictionary. Normally you can only add words, with less frequently used “added” word being phased out. Here you can edit/delete them if you want (say, [...]

This morning, I received a DHL package from WOMWorld. As far as I knew, it was “just” the Nokia Bh-905 stereo bluetooth headset (unboxing in a mo!) But stowing away with the bubble wrap was a card and a really nice brushed metal USB stick. What’s in the USB stick? I think I’ve already got [...]

Here’s “Candle” another one of those free apps where it’s just difficult to see any practical use for it. Maybe waving it at a gig? Impromptu candle for a romantic dinner?
