Tomtom launches a GPS with third party app support
,----[ Quote ]
| Tomtom has packed the Go Live 1000 with a
| Webkit based browser interface, apparently
| in the hope that customers will mistake it
| for a smartphone. The firm says that it has
| optimised the unit for "rapid integration of
| third party applications", meaning it has
| finally caught on to the fact that
| smartphones are destroying its business. To
| run these third party applications, the Go
| Live 1000 features a 500MHz ARM 11 based
| chip.

The new kid on the Mobile OS block - MeeGo

| industry in general - particularly the
| mobile operating system (OS) developers.

MeeGo: open development and upstream involvement
,----[ Quote ]
| Ari Jaaksi, Nokia's VP for Maemo devices
| and MeeGo operations, spoke first, which he
| saw as an advantage because Intel's Imad
| Sousou would be sure to correct anything he
| said "wrong". The goal of the MeeGo project
| is to "provide industry with an open
| platform" for various kinds of devices.
| Both companies have been working on mobile
| distributions, which means that they
| "integrate the same components multiple
| times", and that is "stupid", Jaaksi said.
| That is one of the main ideas behind the
| merger.

My Top 5 N900 Applications
,----[ Quote ]
| #1 Firefox - Easily my favorite way to surf
| the web, on the N900 or otherwise. If you
| want more of my thoughts on this one check
| out my Firefox Mobile Review.
|
| #2 fMMS - This application steps up to fill
| one of the biggest mess-ups Nokia made when
| they released the N900: lack of MMS
| support. fMMS currently supports sending
| pictures and receiving all types of media
| messages. Since I discovered this wonderful
| application I no longer have to hear my
| friends say "your phone does all that, but
| can't get a picture message?"
