After much deliberation, discussion, and back-and-forth, we’ve finally come up with the winners of our Symbian-Guru and Vringo video ringtone contest. This wasn’t easy – there were a ton of great submissions, but unfortunately we could only pick one winner. Thanks so much to everyone who participated, and keep in mind you can use *any* [...]
Our friends over at AllAboutSymbian have posted the awesome news that emTube, a favorite YouTube (and other online video) application for Symbian-powered smartphones has resurfaced at SEE 09, albeit with a new name. Now called Open Video Hub, emTube is being relaunched with support for multiple video services, as well as an extensible architecture with [...]
I recently had the chance to have my hands on the Nokia N97 Mini, a device that I didn’t gear much attention towards during Nokia World 2009. The Mini is, like its name calls, a smaller version of the Nokia N97 in terms of size, weight, screen, and mass memory features. The difference might not [...]
Pixelpipe is a free service in which you could upload your photos and videos from your Symbian-powered handset to multiple destinations such as Flickr, Picasa, Facebook, Twitter and so on, all in one go. Their new announcement says that they will be releasing 50 new applications to the Android, iPhone and Ovi Store. The reason [...]

ShoZu recently announced that it is available for all Symbian-powered devices (aside from the Nokia N97, currently) on the Ovi Store. You may recall, several weeks ago, ShoZu announced it would begin charging users to download its previously free client, and we decided it had completely jumped the shark. We have confirmed, since then, that [...]
Our friends at Sandisk have put together a cool contest, called ‘60-Second Summer‘. To enter, simply record a 60-second video with your camera phone showing what makes your summer buzz. You can enter as many times as you want, but you must record a new video for each entry. The video doesn’t have to be [...]
We’ve finally tallied all the votes for the Symbian-Guru Don’t Hate The Player video contest, and have three winners – two reader’s choice, one from Bounce Boing Voyage and one from One, along with a third editor’s choice winner.
