  • None of your business

    Yeah to the promo code. The app really sounds useful. And by useful i dont mean useful as in i make a remote control out of my mobile. ;) Definately an app for my e65 which is connected to the net 24/7 with different acces points. Awesome.

    Awesome! Going to use it on my N95-4 8GB…! Such a needed application for me – going between (2) different office locations and my home, this application will take care of it all!!

    This program is exactly what I need. Between the wi-fi connection at home, two different work places, several favorite lunch/coffee spots during the day/afternoon, the intelligence of Psiloc Connect would be a huge help to me. I’m currently still using my trusty ole’ N80, but will probably get an E51 in the next month or so.

    okay i admit it.
    after racking my brain on psiloc’s What? application for all 15 days, my guesses didnt even come close to what it turned out to be.

    Im gonna use this application a LOT on my n82.
    something to do with the astronomical data rates in india, my technophilic lusts, and my limited wallet.
    i got wifi coverage in half my house, and now im not caged up in half of it while using the phone.

    Already installed on my N82 (even though its not in the list of supported devices) Makes my data life so much easier. My email picks the best connection dependant on where I am and my web browsing at symbian guru is a breeze. I had tried devicescape before Psiloc connect but that doesn’t allow GPRS connections. So sorry devicescape, Psiloc Connect rules!!!!

    I use Jaiku on my N95-3 to keep tabs The Guru so that I can pull up the GPS system to track down where he is and where he’s been. I use Shozu and Share as I hide in the bushes to quickly upload pictures and video of him so I need to be able to upload quickly, without additional prompts asking me which internet connection I would like to use at the moment.

    @Janptr – what version were you trying? V1.00 had issues with E61/E61i. They’ve already released an update, v1.01, which is supposed to fix those issues. If you were trying the earlier version, I’d recommend giving it another go.
