Advertisements We mentioned the LG Optimus 2X passively in a post before, noting it’s 1080p video recording capabilities. The N8 (gosh, announced all the way back in April 2010) has 720p but could be classed as one of if not the best phone that records 720p HD. Damien Dinning and team are said to be […]

Exactly one month ago we wrote about Kate Alhola and her awesome N900/MeeGo/AR-Drone project. Last week, for the MeeGo Finland meeting, Kate flew her AR-Drone again using the N900 as part of her presentation. The quadrocopter is fitted with a camera, the images of which are fed back live to the phone (which is seen […]
Whilst writing the first post today on #N8 productions I saw some really cool new entries that I wanted to share with you guys. The first is actually a “The Commuter” style mini movie shot on the N8 with an action packed car chase. Great effort by FatCat Films team, starring Samir Boitard, Alex Disdier […]
Do you remember about a month ago we saw Danny Fong, aka Daniscool99Â enter the #N8Productions competition with his one-man quartet acapella, filmed on a Nokia N8?

But every now and again there’s unconvential use of other USB peripherals such as Mice, keyboards and even barcode readers. schawlaf demoes the N8 connected to Bamboo – no, not the vegetation, but one […]
Before we address what on earth ANT/ANT+ is, let’s rewind a little with some background. Nokia has a habit of not revealing all hardware features in their devices. Secret little Easter eggs if you will, as opposed to blatant marketing fail :p. Examples? N95 and accelerometer, N800 and FM Radio, C7 with a NFC Chip […]
If you’ve been following this blog, you might have seen us show some outstanding Finnish sights from topolino70 AKA Tommi Vainionpää and his Nokia N8. His videos are so mesmerising and picturesque that pausing at any moment in his videos, it appears as if they were individual photographs. Tommi’s latest piece is Finnish Nature and […]
It takes some effort when entering a video competition not just to compose/shoot the video, but also to create an app that will make your desired effect. As you know, I’m a fan of the old time lapse; this being somewhat a secret/untapped feature in the old S60 3rd edition phones (e.g. N95). Iain Wallace […]
