Advertisements Space Impact (oh how I missed thee!) has just been revitalised again with a new “compass version” Meteor Shield where rotating the phone would control the game. But it’s incompatible to phones without a magnetometer. But old on….Do any of you remember a couple of games called “Attack of the Killer Virus” and “Moorhen […]
Julien Fourgeaud, (hardcore N97 user – saying he’s not so much a geek but more focused on productivity), shares his vision into the direction of Symbian. Julien says that Symbian will go in the direction the community wants – from new usage such as robotics, home entertainment even automotive things. We will see higher powered […]
There has been previous drama already (in August and November) when Maemo was claimed to be replacing Symbian, and being dropped completely in Nseries by 2012. Nokia flat out denied the Maemo swap and said both Maemo and Symbian will co-exist. “Symbian will continue to be the smartphone OS of our (Nokia’s) choice” Well, one […]

One main, one work, one play. 6 widget spaces […]
Symbian’s roadmap is available for you to have a read and there’s some very interesting stuff planned. #Symbiangives – not just open in terms of Open Source OS but Open in their intentions and future goals: Symbian^4 isn’t the limit, there’s Symbian^5 and Symbian^6 too! [Hey, maybe we can keep the S60 branded products, just […]
Some of this week’s highlights: Symbian Launched a promotion called #symbiangives, whereby simply tweeting with the hashtag #symbiangives could win you prizes. Symbian also released some Symbian^4 screenshots whereby we saw a new font change and a new “app switcher” button for Symbian. The X6 got reviewed by Stuff Magazine and also saw a firmware […]
Some supposed Symbian^4 screenshots. For me, the font change makes a world of difference. I think it’s “Arial” which looks much more appealing (fresh/new?) than the standard “Nokia Sans”.
