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!

Create mobile adverts in moments with Wapple - The new Wapple Advert Package provides all the tools, templates, tips and advice needed to create and publish a fully interactive mobile advertising site.
9 January 2008: Wapple (http://wapple.net) has launched a quick and easy way for companies to get a mobile advertising campaign up and running based on its popular Wapple Canvas™ web-based tools for creating mobile web sites. The new Wapple Advert Package provides all the tools, templates, tips and advice needed to create and publish a fully interactive mobile advertising site. Ads are automatically optimised and delivered to thousands of different mobile phones and devices, either as a stand alone ad or part of an integrated, cross-media campaign.
The Wapple Advert Package includes access to a wide range of templates that walk users through the process of creating a successful mobile ad, including essential calls to action such as 'click throughs', 'click to call' or 'purchase now' links, for example. But it also provides the creative freedom to run with new ideas with the help of easy to use design and build tools and Wapple's Top Ten Tips for mobile advertising. The package also allows companies to deliver downloadable content as part of the promotion.
"Mobile advertising is set to revolutionise the way companies interact and communicate with their target audience, but it is still a new media and a proper understanding of mobile is needed to get it right," says Anne Thomas, business development director at Wapple. "With our new Wapple Advert Package, we are not just giving people the ability to create and publish a mobile advertising site; we are giving them everything they need to do it successfully. We provide the knowledge and expertise to take advantage of the unique attributes of mobile, as well as advice on driving traffic to the ad and integrating mobile advertising into existing digital, print and broadcast campaigns."
