TouchCalc – The calculator that should be bundled with UIQ 3
January 13, 2008
Ladies and gentlemen, if you are really using your UIQ 3 smartphones to the max, then you must have used the built-in calculator which is "a pain in the a**" to use because of the tiny-weeny buttons on the screen. And the worst part, for P990 users, the UIQ 3 calculator CAN’T be used in flip closed mode. What a shame…
Now here’s someone who felt the need to use calculator on a daily basis and want to use his index finger to poke the screen, not the stylus. The result… TouchCalc is born!
If you are frustrated with the built in calculator in your P1i, get this FREE app, install it, use it and if you have time, send some feedback about it to Rene. He needs your assistance in improving TouchCalc especially for the FLIP CLOSE mode on P990.
IMHO, Rene has shown us once again that there are still hope in the UIQ Universe. Freeware like this should be promoted, shared and used. Please spread the words about this little (but useful) tool to the world. Tell your friends about it.
To Rene Brunner, SALUTE!

Jaiku for Symbian S60 released
August 23, 2007
Jaiku is a software application for mobile phones that enables you to post and browse "Jaikus", add comments, and share your status and location.
The main push of this release is to let you bring the rich conversation you’ve been enjoying on the Jaiku website with you out into the world on your S60 mobile.
Other new features include:
- The choice between longer battery life or more up-to-date presence.
- Reading and writing comments from and to your contacts.
- Go back in time! Using the ’stream view’ for your contacts, you can see what they were doing and saying in the past, not just their most recent post.
- More than just Jaikus! You can also see when your contacts have posted to flickr.
- Improved presence view, to make the most of your screen real-estate.
- A whole raft of usability improvements, based on what our users have been telling us they need, including an even easier to use interface, and a progress meter, so you can see what’s happening.
- More optimal data transfer and connection maintenance, giving you more bang for your wireless data dollar.
- …and all the essential (but not that interesting) stuff like bug fixes, speed improvements, that sort of thing.
- Oh, and let’s not forget – a spiffy new manual for this client.

Automatic backlight for S60 3rd Edition
July 23, 2007
SmartLight Automatic Backlight for S60 3rd Edition
Tired of the display backlight going out when you are looking at the screen – e.g. while thinking about the right word for an sms? Wouldn’t it be nice if your phone knew when you needed the light and when not? SmartLight does just that: Once you have opened an application, the backlight stays on – until you close or hide the application, switching the light off automatically.
Once started, SmartLight runs as a background application (until the phone is switched off). It can be accessed through the list of open applications (hold down the Menu key). With SmartLight running, the backlight stays on as long as the menu or an application window is in the foreground. The backlight goes out as normal (i.e. after the period selected in Phone Settings) once the user returns to the idle screen. The light also goes out as normal after receiving or making a call, and after the phone displaying system notifications (about new messages etc.).
For maximum effect, we recommend setting the backlight time-out period (Phone Settings > Display > Light time-out) to the minimum of 5 seconds.
