Video: Qt based Audelicious App: Music Visualization/Appreciation for the Nokia N900

Advertisements Here’s a pretty cool find, an app built by iPhone blogger and coder Melfar (Vsevolod Buzinov)  with Qt. Audelicious: Music Appreciation app. I’m not sure if they are visualizations for music being played through the music player though that’s what I’m assuming. You’ve got a couple of spectrum analyzers and an amplitude meter. All three can […]

I’m probably showing my age now, but I loved Theme Hospital as a kid! (Though I think I got into it quite late as I owned a platinum disk version). Hospital management, building clinics, dealing with patients and staff, and of course that soothing 80s elevator music. Haha. You might have seen the first videos […]

This is the biggest firmware update to date in terms of new features, and it brings a lot of the ones I’ve been hoping for since the very beginning (there’s still more I’d like to see, e.g. standard portrait in many more views, like music player. There is a chance they might not have yet […]

N900 designed for portrait? [N900 portrait screenshots – again] Poll: Do you still want portrait mode in your N900?

Sidepoll: [polldaddy poll=2917640] The N900 is infamous for its lack of portrait orientation. Sure you can get portrait in call mode, you can now get portrait very nicely in web browser and a “bug” can even induce the N900 to act entirely in portrait mode(demoed here with Gallery) but there is no official complete-portrait mode.

Here’s a somewhat scathing review of the N900 from the Attack of The Show peeps. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yC_nIdZR5p8] Unlike previous reviews which actually REVIEWED the handset (i.e. actually spent more than 5 minutes on it), previous reviewers found the N900 to always be too big, the resistive screen to be a disappointment (instead of the feather light […]

Remember Speedtester on S60 5th Edition? That turned out to be surprisingly popular for something quite so simple. There’s four coloured circles. All you have to do is tap the one that’s lit. It’s a little harder than the Symbian version as you begin at a faster speed and the sequential speed increases is steeper. […]

Here’s a really nice and useful app that’s free in the App Manager: Tickstill. You can use it as a stopwatch and it also has countdown functions too. The countdown is especially nice as you can set your own sound/music as an alarm when the clock reaches zero. The interface is really simple and easy […]
