Advertisements It’s a hot topic over at Engadget as Darren Murph asks the Engadget readers, “How would you change the Nokia N97?”. Oh dear. Where to begin? Its biggest flaw is that it simply does not live up to the hype. 6 months after announcement, waiting for “From the desktop to the laptop and now […]
I didn’t get a chance to post anything yesterday as I was busy revising for an exam (for today -14-08-09) It went quite well, with the questions I had hoped and anticipated for actually coming up this time.

Here’s a two part video review of the messaging oriented Nokia 6790 Surge by Michael Oryl from MobileBurn. It’s a Symbian S60 3rd Edition side slider, with 4 row QWERTY keyboard, 2.4″ QVGA screen and a 2MP camera for AT&T. Software custamizations and additional shortcut buttons are nice on this unconventional looking device. 2.5mm jack […]

[polldaddy poll=1849042] Vote as applicable. One of the easiest tasks on Nokia phones was getting to your contacts. Type a few letters of the name as you would in a text message, i.e. via alphanumeric keypad, and possible names are suggested, narrowing down the choices the more letters you typed. No more lengthy scrolling. Annoyingly, […]
Clicker Counters….remember this? [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lTtFp4JXo6Y] From the Ovi Store, here’s Counter Touch – a touch screen Clicker Counter for your S60 5th Edition handset.

My broadband just stopped working. After getting past the frustration, I’d normally attempt to fix it (myself or get a mate to do it). Instead, I decided to try using the N97 as a modem. (Note: this isn’t specific to the N97). In Ovi Suite, there’s a service called “One Touch Access” and it really […]
