There are also a batch of six new themed, bigger Word Searches, available as commercial titles. Details below.

What would be really great is if someone got off their backside and coded a S60v5 version of the popular game found on pub quizmachines called "WordUp". Someone's already done it for the iPhone and it would be a great game for my N97. It's essentially Boggle with a shuffle function!
Currently Apple are leading the way on the games front which is *shocking* given how far ahead my N95 was only a year or so ago...
in terms of games/ software nokia is slow in their development, compared to apple. the approach is similar to games console production; here's the hardware, now make something good from it. writers have worked on the iphone and there's loads of stuff, like you would with a console, maturing over a year or so. with nokia, here's a load of new phones (which they plan to replace in 6 month time) that have the latest software. these might be worth investing in for a few years before they get superseded in a few years, but otherwis leave behind.
