Tommi Laukanen strikes again with yet another awesome step forward with QT QML projects. Inspired by Flipboard for iPad (which he says would be the one app to make him get one) he’s sought about to mimic Flipboard’s page turn effect with QML script. Flipboard for iPad looks great huh? I wonder what other aspects [...]
Yesterday we saw Kasvopus, a new project from Tommi Laukkanen that brings a very promising facebook client to Nokia Devices. The only one so far comes by way of the frighteningly bad Social App produced by NOKIA. There’s quite some potential with Kasvopus, hopefully it will receive more updates and more features, but for now [...]
Tommi Laukkanen is at it again, this time taking on the Facebook app (which no one else, not even Nokia have done a good job on. It pains me how terribly overlooked the Facebook app has been on Nokias. You would think it was some hobo social network with 5 people on it the way [...]
On Christmas eve-eve we saw that Android 2.3 had been successfully ported to the N900 via the NITDroid project. Below we can see N900 with Smooth Gingerbread action. Cheers Keith for the heads up! Demoed features include: Homescreen Web Browser Akwardly small portrait keyboard (is that the landscape keyboard just in wrong orientation?) Dialler

The N900 Tagline: Is there anything this phone CANNOT do?! As you might know the N900 has already been taking host of Android for quite some time, also getting Froyo before many other supposed “Android Phones” :p. (Heh, All the other manufacturers are lucky Nokia’s not making Android phones as we all know they’d whip [...]
I don’t know if this is new, all I know is I’ve never seen it before. It’s a guy kinda going through his day using Ovi services. Now I’m not sure why they’re talking about N900. It doesn’t have a Nokia Facebook/Twitter app and navigation still lacks voice prompts (As well as other Ovi Maps [...]
Got no WiFi? Got no phone signal? That’s two things I haven’t got in my room this year . Could be happening to you if you’re in some random poor WiFi hotel room. Well that’s not going to stop the Nokia N900. Here it is connecting to the internet via an Ethernet Cable. Yeah, that [...]
Check this out. This is a CPS2 Emulator to play some of those vintage Capcom Play System II games on the Nokia N900. No overclocking needed this is a very efficient emulator that runs perfectly at the stock 600MHz (some other emulators – e.g. – needed N900 to be overclocked) And due to the keyboard [...]
I didn’t mean to do this comparison (Sorry for the mess on the wall) but on the early hours of the morning I was just checking video on N97 to run out its battery(to test out the Powermat wireless charger for review) and noticed that the N97 digital zoom and general video quality was sooo bad in comparison to [...]
divan0 shares with us a pretty cool video of USB on the Go for the N900. We saw it the other day playing back a movie directly from a DVD drive over USB to Go. Here’s something a little more day-to-day/practical. 2:04 N900 huge video file playback. Not a problem for the N900 3:25 N900 [...]
Oh Maemo 5 and Nokia N900 – You never cease to surprise. RT’d by @johnnybrasco @MeeGoExperts has found a very awesome video by mohammad7410 of the brilliant Nokia N900 playing a DVD disc over USB Host mode. Playing DVDs on the N900 with a modified kernel and a custom mplayer build. Thanks to the hostmode [...]
amandahoic from amanda_hoic.mysinablog.com/) has recorded a video demo of MeeGo 1.1 on the N900. It’s not in English (but Cantonese) but you can still appreciate what’s going on in MeeGo. Note this is the basic Vanilla colour scheme of Vanilla MeeGo which will look different to Nokia’s MeeGo Handset (Harmattan) 01:43 – Dialler/call page (actions [...]
Initial Installation 360NextLevel gives us a video tutorial on how to install the WebOS version of Asphalt 5 on the Nokia N900. Yes, WebOS. It’s a little technical and you may need to check out other videos to complete all the instructions. [YOUTUBE=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8rDCbZ3gyYE]
A year on and the N900 is still as awesome as ever. Here’s the N900 playing WebOS games WITHOUT the need to boot up WebOS itself, as demoed by fukywak. Here we can see Sims 3 and Need for Speed Undercover Check out the thread on talk.maemo.org
The Nokia N900 is renowned for its multitasking prowess. Not just in terms of how many activities it can juggle but also in the contextual grid interface of LIVE windows. Here’s another look – a single column view. What’s interesting is that it’s vertical. A brilliant must have addition is shortcutD which can give [...]
An alternative to Morpho QuickPanorama “Nokia Panorama” is now available at the Ovi Store for free. In contrast to Morpho, the detail seems MUCH higher with the Nokia version. The seams are pretty much invisible. The pic below is from Damien Dining. I don’t have a N8 to test this out so I’m not sure [...]
Just how much better has the Nokia’s CBD AMOLED improved from the previous N900 TFT LCD (disregarding the N86 2.6″ AMOLED). The difference is startling. (note, N90 does have screen protector, but the colours would look pretty much the same regardless as it did so on the show floor N900). N900 does ‘win out’ though [...]
An unmissable feature on Nokia World Experience Lounge show floor was the big-ass camera mounted car which resembled google’s own street view car. Now, I was told by Nokia-NAVTEQ folk Nick and Robert that this particular car wasn’t actually for street view but to improve map accuracy (or words to that effect). However there was [...]
Here’s a mash up gallery on the new Nokia E7, a stunning 4″ tilt QWERTY slider.
As part of the “It’s not the technology: It’s what you do with it” series, here’s another look at one of the Push N900 winners. Kite aerial photography with Nokia N900s. The N900 isn’t just attached to a kite. Another N900 can control the motors of the rig the aerial N900 is attached to, so [...]
