Since Nokia launched its Ovi Store earlier this year, we, along with most everyone else, have taken our share of pot-shots against it. When the store launched, it was pretty easy, as the store’s search function was busted, users couldn’t re-download purchases, and there were several other problems that plagued the store. To bust this, [...]
After Ricky’s ultimate guide to Twitter on S60 that was published yesterday, I decided to tackle another social network: Facebook, and present to you in a table view all the ways that you could get your Facebook fix on your S60 devices. Unfortunately, unlike Twitter, Facebook is lagging behind miserably in terms of native applications, [...]
I got an email from the staffs at WidSets telling me great news. The email said that the WidSets service would be integrated into the upcoming OVI Store. Furthermore it stated that the OVI Store would be the “one-stop, global shop for widgets, mobile apps, games, videos and so much more.” Great, I thought to myself [...]
One thing that I like to do once a week or so is refresh the Download! application on whatever phone I’m using (lately the N95-3) to see if they’ve added any applications that may be interesting. I’m actually rather impressed with the number of applications now available, even on the N95-3, which is a U.S. [...]
When Nokia first announced Web RunTime Widgets, my first question was ‘how is that different from Widsets?’ Honestly, I’m still trying to figure out exactly what the difference is, and Nokia isn’t making things any easier. They’ve recently started melting the two together, with a new mobile Widgsets library available. No, that’s not a typo. [...]
It’s Friday, which means we should all have a little fun, right? Of course. This week, there’s a showdown happening at the S60 Saloon, and it’s the Suits vs the Ambassadors. A few weeks ago, we let you in on a nifty little app called Widsets Pets, part of the recent Widsets application update and [...]
Click To Play I’m going to be honest here, I personally believe that this is the best DWTG episode yet. I’ve got another quick look at the Nokia E90, specifically the recently gone-public Nokia Maps 2.0 (with fixed softkey labels!) and Widsets, which has Widsets Pets, a new favorite pasttime for me.I also take a [...]
Many of you are familiar with S60 Phil. He was the host of the Voice of S60 podcast before Saara took over (and she’s been doing a great job, as well!), and has since moved on to the Widsets team. His latest ‘pet’ has finally officially been launched, and I’m officially confessing that I’m completely [...]
Click To Play Episode 33 is here, ready to rock your world! We’ve got a quick hands-on with the Motorola Z9 slider, as well as a few more Bluetooth accessories such as the Samsung WEP410 and the Plantronics Voyager 855. I’ve also got some thoughts on recent N-Gage happenings. I also mentioned Widsets, which you [...]
