Liqflow on the N900 – simple visual delight

Liqflow on the N900 – simple visual delight

| December 20, 2009 | Reply

Advertisements I remember seeing demonstrated for the first time at OneDotZero by its creator, Gary Birkett. Liqflow uses the N900’s accelerometer and touch screen to bring about a simple yet mesmerising movement of dots that change colour depending on speed of their movement [gray/white when slow moving – ascends across a rainbow of colorus as […]

ITPro's Nokia N900 Review: 5 stars – A breath of Fresh air!

| December 20, 2009 | Reply

iN ITPro – one of the leading tech sites in Britain has reviewed the Nokia N900 and summarises it as “Quite simply, it’s a breath of fresh air.” As with most reviews of the N900 – hindering it seems to be the size (at times the resistive screen), but other than that, it’s very good […]

Previously we looked at Mauku as a twitter app for the N900. I liked the look, but it lacked ability to read tweet replies and direct messages. Witter might just be the twitter application to try out as it does allow you to read mentions and direct messages. There’s a simply bar at the top […]

GBoggle on the N900 [Free Game]

| December 19, 2009 | 7 Replies

This is a simple yet surprisingly addictive game (at least for me). I’ve never been a fan of the actual “Boggle” game, but found this one really entertaining. With GBoggle, you’ve got a 4×4 row of letters, standard Boggle rules: find words by joining letters that are only one letter away, sideways or diagonally, to […]

Braek on the N900 – Broken Screen Simulator

| December 19, 2009 | 88 Replies

This application simulates a cracked screen on your N900. After launching it appears everywhere and for the life of me, I don’t know how to exit it (there’s no end current task option) apart from restarting the phone. If you try and open up “Braek” a second time whilst you still have a “cracked screen” […]

This app for the N900 is called Capsule 3D – it’s a 3D viewer showing the N900 rendering 3D objects in realtime. You can move them at any angle or set them to a slow and gentle spin. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrqWMhfNqFw]

In this two part review, LP now from TechnoBuffalo has reviewed the Nokia N900 – and it’s quite a positive one. They show how well the browser handles webpages, the ease of such wide video coded support that it plays AVI files out of the box and the power behind the N900’s multitasking. Although the […]

Nokia N900 Automatic Updates for all apps!?

Nokia N900 Automatic Updates for all apps!?

| December 18, 2009 | 110 Replies

With S60 if you have several apps installed, you might not know there’s a newer updated version until you try out that application again (and that’s if you’re lucky). Today, the N900 gave me a notification saying a few applications I had previously installed had some updates. I continued and the N900 proceeded to install […]
