Senior Product Manager, Mikko Korpelainen demonstrates the Maemo 5 Web Browser on the Nokia N900 [Youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JUCc2C4JPJE] Flash isn’t anything new on a Nokia, but 9.4 on the N900 looks really good. On previous Nseries (even tablets), flash was ok, but it would not render full flash heavy sites like your desktop. Especially not flash game […]

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? It’s a realistic candle that you can put out by swiping, and lighting up by double swiping. It works in portrait and landscape though […]

To the average consumer, the N97 and N97 mini are practically the same phone. (Heck, that’s understandable when some people I know can’t even differentiate between manufacturers). Appearance wise, they might as well be. But there are some minor visible differences. The N97 mini looks fractionally smaller than the N97 (for me, not enough to […]

“Lights” is a free application from the Ovi Store for S60 5th edition but it does work best if you’ve got a QWERTY keyboard (i.e. N97 or N97 mini). The application basically controls the lights on your phone, be it the keyboard lights, the red/green call/end keys, screen light or even the charger light. You […]
