Just before the deadline we want to point out a few more April exclusives. There's the Symbian Foundation powered toaster (Smart Toaster X, from Hussel & Robbs, thefirst Symbian^2 appliance) and the TEXT'N'WALK application from Looflirpa (innovative camera usage).

The BBC claimed they're putting iPlayer on a toaster, which in view of their bizarre choice of devices to support, and their withdrawal of downloading on the 5800, I thought was far to near the knuckle, not funny, and in extremely poor taste.

One curious thing about Looflirpa, every year they always choose the beginning of April to announce their new products. I wonder why.

I had the same thought. Though I guess, in reality, it would be more hassle to activate that would be really worth it.

To TheUndertaker:
Oh, come on! Really, who texts while holding the phone like they do in that picture? My arms would start hurting pretty soon. The way I usually hold my phone while texting, the camera always points to my feet, and even with textnwalk I would continue bumping into people, walls, poles, falling into open utility holes, and trampling dogs and hobos like I do every day on my way to work.
