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. Score! Anyway, whilst I was revising for the topic of Xenopus laevis T3 metamorphosis, I kept on […]

Here’s a two part video review of the messaging oriented Nokia 6790 Surge by Michael Oryl from MobileBurn.

Software custamizations and additional shortcut buttons are nice on this unconventional looking device. 2.5mm jack […]

Episode 87 takes a break from Steve’s news and reviews of the phone world, instead shifting the limelight to his PhonesShow viewing audience as they reveal which phone they’re using right now, and why they love it. It’s a strong Nokia showing, but then again, Steve is from All About Symbian :). [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HE_1nLyBChA] via 3lib […]

Update: Correct video embedded ____ A few users had been disappointed with the lack of decent theme effects on their N97. They’ve seen the demo video, and a few early hands on of preproduction devices which implied that end users would be getting something similar too.

How do you access your contacts? (How Nokia should improve contact search in S60 5th edition)

[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, […]

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 […]
