Symbian on TV!
Monday night's Gadget Show on Channel 5 in the UK (5 Dec 2005) hit viewers with a barrage of Symbian-powered smartphones. Topics covered by the show included getting online using GPRS/3G and TV on your mobile. The Nokia 7710 mediaphone, in particular was given a lot of close-up coverage, playing back video segments and shown streaming live TV. Also spotted were the Nokia 6680, 6630 and even the Series 80-powered Nokia 9300. Plus there was quite a bit of footage of Symbian's 'Smartphone Show'. What else did you spot?

Another very useful table
Coo, the second 'really useful table' inside a week. After my own Series 60 device comparison chart, Forum Nokia have put up a huge table listing all the detailed audio and video capabilities of their phones. Another one to bookmark, I think!

Grid computing? Very tasty, too...
A regular pop-up in the news here, but my Grid of mobile devices has been updated again, over at 3-Lib. Gone is the Sendo X (still crying over that one), new is the Orange M2000 and clones. Suggestions for additions to the Grid are welcomed!Posted by Steve Litchfield at 14:10 UTC, November 4th || 5 Comments

Just a note that the only serious producer of themes for the Nokia 7710 has moved 'house' and is now hosted on my 3-Lib server. There are three free themes and a lot of other commercial ones.Posted by Steve Litchfield at 11:35 UTC, October 3rd || 6 Comments
ProfiMail Released for Nokia 7710 Series 90 Devices
Lonely Cat Games replacement email applciation ProfiMail has been released for the Nokia 7710. We've reviewed the Series 60 version previously and it was a good replacement for the built in email application for heavy duty users. The Series 90 email client is a lot more power-user friendly, but you'll still find a look at the trial version of ProfiMail useful.Posted by Ewan Spence at 9:03 UTC, July 27th || 0 Comments
