Advertisements N900 is a champion at playing the old PC classics, such as Warcraft 2, Starcraft and Doom. Great games, although I wasn’t as big a fan of those as I was with this next game: Command And Conquer: Red Alert – which I think was the game that started off my liking for the […]

Whilst looking for a stray .pdf document for my dissertation, I found this old video I did a couple months just messing about with Vegas. This wasn’t ever meant to be published but I thought it might be interesting to share and anticipate the multitouch pinch and zoom goodness that Nokia are promising us with […]

Here’s a really good alternative to the awesome SPORTS TRACKER app on Symbian. It’s all accelerometer based so there isn’t a GPS tracking side to it to calculate actual distances/speed (or show you your track path) but it’s good enough for basic monitoring. Isn’t there like a recommended 10,000 step minimum? It’s free to download […]

Some MeeGo and Moblin videos for you. About MeeGo MeeGo is the merger of “the best of Maemo” with “the best of Moblin” MeeGo – Qt App development means cross platform (and cross device) compatibility with Symbian (and other OS?).

Imagine this scenario: You take a photo on the N900. It’s automatically in iPhoto on your mac…and you didn’t do anything – it’s all automatic, no cables, no sending over bluetooth, no sharing over web services, no memory card transfer – NOTHING you had to additionally do. You edit the photo in iPhoto. You browse […]

There has been previous drama already (in August and November) when Maemo was claimed to be replacing Symbian, and being dropped completely in Nseries by 2012. Nokia flat out denied the Maemo swap and said both Maemo and Symbian will co-exist. “Symbian will continue to be the smartphone OS of our (Nokia’s) choice” Well, one […]

It’s just great to know that with the N900, sites you’ve been visiting on your desktop computer will work pretty well too on the N900. With certain websites, they work so well, you don’t really need […]
