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!

Göteborg, February 11, 2008 – Carmenta AB, supplier of innovative geospatial technology, today launched Carmenta Mobile at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.
Carmenta Mobile is a high performance map engine for mobile phones. It is one of the first, if not the first, mobile phone platform able to handle the new kind of 3D map data that is starting to emerge from map data suppliers, such as NavTeq.
Carmenta Mobile is a total solution for companies developing advanced location-based applications which use maps, routing and address or point of interest searches. Examples of such applications are in-car and pedestrian navigation, fleet and asset management, and location-based games.
Carmenta Mobile is easy to embed into any mobile application and provides a rich set of features, including:
- 2D and 3D maps capable of displaying 3D buildings and landmarks.
- Maps stored on the device which can be combined with maps loaded on-demand from a server to form a so-called hybrid system.
- Street-level maps which can be combined with other kinds of data such as satellite images or terrain information.
- Components for routing, geocoding and GPS device integration.
