First Look: Kinoma Play for Symbian

by Ben Smith 30th October 2009

Kinoma Play is a media-consuming power-house of an S60 application. Fast and refined, even in this its first non-Windows Mobile incarnation it justifies a hefty $30 price-tag, giving my pre-historic N82 a new lease of life. When the initial pitch on an S60 application – especially an S60 3rd edition (non-touch) application – is referenced [...]

We take a look at some of the VoIP calling features built-in to the Nokia N900. We used a WiFi connection in this video but it also works over 3G and 3.5G (sadly it’s a poor experience on anything less than 3G). This feature was brought to you in association with VoIP.co.uk. If you want [...]

by Ben Smith 19th October 2009

A tale of woe about shopping in the OVI store… “Would you like a Hannah Montana screen-saver with that?” It would be funny if it weren’t true.

giffgaff gives the goss (on pricing)

by James Whatley 16th October 2009

giffgaff, the people-powered network to whom we gave (what we thought was) a fair preview of, has released a teensy bit of news about their pricing. Well, that’s not strictly true, but we’ll come back to that part shortly…. The ‘news’, coming in the form of a blog post from marketing chief, Kylie (no – [...]

Underwhelmed by Pre launch buzz

by Ben Smith 16th October 2009

It’s now only about 7 hours until the Palm Pre goes on sale in the UK.  We went to the launch party earlier in the week, but since then there’s been little buzz about the device.  Twitter’s been pretty quiet  on the subject, and even the subject of some teasing on the subject… …even the [...]

CORRECTED: Palm Pre (doesn't) win T3 'Gadget of the year'

by Dan Lane 14th October 2009

Whoops! this post was previously about the Palm Pre winning Gadget of the Year at the ‘The T3 Gadget Awards‘. Well it pains me to say that turns out we were wrong. Yes, that’s right, it happens sometimes! We acted on a lead from a confused tipster. The award was actually “Outstanding Contribution to Tech” [...]
