A note from Nokia reps this week informs us that the Nokia viNe application will be rolled out of Beta soon... possibly even this week. viNe is a web service that enables users of the application to share their journeys, along with media collected along the way. As a long-time Sports Tracker user, N95 enthusiasts, and evangelist of all things mobile and geospatial, I was provided with a pre-release version of viNe - details and a complete "How To" install and use the application are provided... enjoy! Enter Nokia viNe 101
It was back in June 2008 that the E71 was officially released to the public - the selling points for the E71 were a sleek, stylish do-it-all device that came with Mail for Exchange mobile email client - pre-loaded with the Nokia E71. Actually, the device boasted much much more than these attributes as you'll see below in my findings after having the pleasure of making the E71 my main device for 3 weeks... enjoy the recap, the images and the videos!

SHAPE Services has announced the official release of IM+ for Skype Software. IM+ for Skype gives the low-cost alternative to traditional calls and Skype-to-Skype voice and text communication from S60 3rd Edition devices. IM+ for Skype Software is based on SkypeOut service that allows users to make and receive calls for a fee.
SkypeOut rates are considered to be the lowest rates in the industry to any local or international destination. IM+ for Skype is also available for Blackberry and will soon be available for Pocket PC, Palm, Symbian and Smartphone devices with standard Internet connection. Being the leader of cross-platform mobile IM SHAPE expands Skype service to appeal to mobile phone users with different mobile platforms and without Wi-Fi limitation.
"Creation of IM+ for Skype Software is our answer to users' demand to be able to make cheap calls in classic IM+," said Igor Berezovsky, CEO of SHAPE Services. "Due to SkypeOut making a call with IM+ is ten times cheaper than making a call with ordinary VoIP client."
About IM+ Product Line:
IM+ Mobile Instant Messenger supports public and corporate IM systems: MSN, Yahoo!, AOL, ICQ, Google Talk, Skype, Microsoft LCS, Lotus Sametime, Jabber and Oracle IM. IM+ is available for all currently popular mobile platforms: Symbian (S60, Series 80, Series 90 and UIQ), Blackberry RIM, Windows Mobile Pocket PC and Smartphone, J2ME, i-mode, Palm and BREW.
