Molome confirmed for WP; Symbian & MeeGo will continue to get support

Molome confirmed for WP; Symbian & MeeGo will continue to get support

| September 17, 2012 | 6 Replies

Advertisements Today MOLOME was announced to be coming to ALL major platforms, in the form of “MOLOME V3 codename “Phoenix” “. They released a pretty interesting video, to accompany the whole “Phoneix” theme. It makes sense, as Symbian, the original platform of MOLOME, and also MeeGo, are now “burnt”, which would link to the ashes […]

Opinion: Nokia should push getting “big name” apps on ALL platforms, not just WP

Opinion: Nokia should push getting “big name” apps on ALL platforms, not just WP

We may see some amazing and polished dual/multi-boot solutions. I preferred having a boot image for NitDroid, let alone an actual GUI where you can […]

Viber: Voice Calls Exclusive to Lumia Phones; Also comes to Nokia S40, Symbian

| September 11, 2012 | 36 Replies

WPCentral have posted up that Viber has announced they will bring Voice Calling to Windows Phone, exclusive to the Lumia range. This is another prime example of Nokia improving the WP experience for Lumia users. Although, I do think that having such exclusive apps and services does indeed cause fragmentation, but let’s not discuss that. […]

  Over at Wired, they have posted up a great post detailing Marko Ahtisaari’s desire to “out-design Apple”. That is a pretty bold statement, seeing as Apple are consider the ‘leaders’ in design. Ahtisaari talks about the new design style being “post-industrial”. He mentions that WP’s Live Tiles are “another take on completely solving all […]
