SMS Diary evolves to become SMS & MMS Diary
October 21, 2008
Ola Melen who brought us SMS Diary have released a new cool application called SMS & MMS Diary. It’s basically an enhancement of SMS Diary but with more cool features.
As you will find when you try the program, the SMS & MMS Diary program can not only be used to create diaries from your messages. It can also be used to view your messages in a simple and extremely fast way (in your phone). Your messages are displayed in a “chat-like” way and hence it is very easy to follow your message conversations with your friends. Messages that you have sent are displayed right-aligned and messages that you have received are displayed left-aligned. Try it and compare with the speed and usability of your built in message viewer
Get it now! Oh yeah, the application is available for you to download and you can get a registration copy when you pay ANY price! Something like a donationware. This is another unique opportunity to own one of the coolest Symbian app in a while! You can set the price at any number!
Samsung announces I7110 based on Symbian OS
October 21, 2008
Samsung have announced the i7110 (there is also an additional press release on symbian.com). It’s a very stylish looking S60 3.2 (which is built on Symbian OS 9.3) candybar.
Here are some of the highlights from the spec sheet:
- OLED QVGA screen
- 5MP camera (with face-detection & VGA video recording)
- Optical mouse (just like on the Innov8 - very cool for web-browsing)
- FM transmitter (useful for music playback on car stereos)
- 12.9mm thickness
Of course it has all the usual trimmings you’d expect from a contemporary Symbian OS phone: GPS, FM radio, accelerometer, Webkit-based S60 browser, HSDPA, audio/video playback, etc. etc.
