I’ve Given Up On My 6630
I had an absolutely nightmare day with my 6630. It has just got worse and worse lately, randomly turning itself off or while I’m in a call ’scrambling’ the audio so it sounds like someone is trying to jam my signal.
Vodafone are sending me a Nokia 6680 as a replacement so it will be [...]
Palm Relaunches Itself Again As….Palm
Last week, PalmOne renamed itself and is now once again Palm and is once again dedicating itself to becoming a leader that will shape the direction of the mobile computing space.Lets hope this happens as I used to be a big fan of palm. When I received my Palm Vx back in 1999 it [...]

Symella is a new Gnutella P2P client for Symbian which only allows downloads.
If the UK moved to fixed rate data tariffs I might be interested in this, although I think it would kill my battery and I’m not sure if I would be so desperate to listen to a track that I would want to [...]
Blackberries - When Will The Bubble Burst?
Why have Blackberries been such a success? They don’t really offer anything special and it seems like Nokia agree.
As you know I’m not a big fan My 6630 has a decent enough email client on it and the only reason I don’t get my work email on it is because we run an old [...]

Nokia N90 Review: This Phone Is Massive
Mobile Review have posted the first decent review I have seen of the Nokia N90.
Overall, functionally it seems an impressive phone. In particular, I was impressed with the image quality.
However, as you can see the phone is as big as a P900 - twice as big once it’s opened, with a massive module sticking [...]
Bluetooth Symbian Skype client
It’s not quite wi-fi/3G Skype but it’s a start.
Skype PTT is a push to talk client for Skype to be used in conjunction with a Bluetooth enabled PC (the PC links to Skype, the phone is effectively used as a PTT headset).
The obvious limitations is that you need to remain within Bluetooth distance of your [...]
Will device manufacturers support Skype if it remains proprietary?
I found an interesting post on ‘Communications’ where Brough Turner states that Skype’s proprietary codecs won’t lock users into using only Skype, as unlike an operating system, users can easily download clients for other messaging networks.
I agree as there is nothing to stop me from running Skype and a new competitor’s software at the same [...]
