Phil Northam: Samsung's Mobile InnovatorSamsung Mobile Innovator is the latest developer support program from a Symbian OS licensee. Richard Bloor caught up with Phil Northam, the program's Global Marketing Manager and one of its founding members, to find out more.
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!

Mobile enterprise computing experts ThinPrint will be presenting their Cortado Premium services for Symbian phones and Windows mobile for the first time, at the 3GSM in Barcelona (Hall 2, Stand 2,1D55, 1st floor). Individual handheld users can book services now at www.cortado.com.
These services can be used for viewing documents, e.g email attachments, on a display, without prior download, or for sending them directly from a handheld to a printer, fax machine, or a laptop screen. The Cortado Shortfax function allows users to compose and send faxes whilst on the go. Cortado Premium Services cost 7.98 Euro each per month, and are also available for a 10-day, no obligation, trial period. The services can be selectively used with the user’s own email account or a Push email account hosted by Cortado.
The Premium Services support all handhelds with Symbian s60 3rd Edition or Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC Edition operating systems. This includes nearly all Nokia E- and N-Series models, such as the Nokia E50, E60, E61, E62, E70, N71, N75, N80, N91, N92, N93, and N73, as well as T-Mobile MDAs, Vodafone’s VPA, O2, xda models, the Palm Treo 750v, HP IPAQ, a number of pocket PCs on the market.
"Whether it’s about viewing a Power Point attachment received via email, faxing a contract, or printing specific documents: Now individual users can also turn their handhelds into mobile offices“, says Dirk Löwenberg, Business Director at Cortado Services. „Because none of the services require document download and the data is transferred highly compressed, the cost of the data transfer is moderate.”
Cortado Premium Services can be booked, or tested, at: www.cortado.com.
