I’m pretty sure everyone who’ve had the experience of watching videos have heard about DivX: it’s a codec which allows for compression of video files to maintain a very high video quality, while being a fraction of their original counterparts; and hence making it a very attractive option for putting on portable video players and mobile phones alike.

If the themes that you’re using are starting to look a bit dull, sure you can hit Google and do some searching for new themes, but chances are that you’ll end up installing a bunch and deciding that they were, at best, of mediocre quality.
Compare it with a theme like this (only an example):
So far Nokia Chat is limited to working exclusively on Nokia S60 smart phones; but Nokia is changing that now with a step-by-step instruction manual (more…)
Every week more or less goes by with at least one article on major tech websites saying “so-and-so” service or blog has gone iPhone friendly, but how often do you hear that for the Symbian S60 platform. It’s rather ironic as the S60 remains as the leader in terms of the smart phone marketshare worldwide, but the iPhone gets all the attention and support for web services and applications (simply think Meebo, Facebook, Google Talk, and countless other services that I don’t need to name).

So just last week Nokia released their own service, aptly named Nokia Email after deciding to pull the Blackberry Connect from their newly released E-series (Business Series) phones.
The new service allows for Push Email, supporting both the POP and IMAP protocols, whilst retaining the old SMS/Text messages look that you find in your inbox. It’s currently in beta right now (probably why it’s free), but you can surely expect to pay a price for it in the future.

Nope, I don’t happen to own a Windows Mobile smart phone to do a review of this, but CNET’s already got a video review of the highly anticipated Opera Mobile 9.5 Beta 1. While it’s still a WM exclusive app, we can all expect something similar in the coming weeks when the Symbian S60 version will be released.

Yep, you read right. Nokia is offering a brand new pilot scheme for interested users who wish to participate in product development - basically put, it means that if you want to try all of Nokia’s latest beta software and stuff like that, you’ve got to sign up to be a participant, as it won’t be released for public downloading. The difference to Beta Labs is quite clear cut. Beta Labs can share applications, content and services for trial usage to thousands and hundreds of thousands of users in an open platform. Nokia Pilots program is in contrast allowing Nokia’s different development teams, who’s work is still classified and in many cases not made public, to share their ideas with Nokia Pilots. Having said that, there is a need to restrict the access to this type of material and content. Thus, we require in some cases non-disclosure agreements (NDA’s) with Nokia Pilots.What makes it worse is that even if I join, I probably won’t be allowed to talk about it on the blog. A real shame - I know many readers are very curious about the latest apps and developments on their smart phones and N82s to see how they can make the most out of their device.
