Warning, I’m about to RANT:
I’m a huge fan of Google Maps.  It’s really a great stand alone app and it keeps getting better but I’m amazed that when they added Latitude they did not include (even just a basic form of) instant messaging with your [...]

August 17th, 2009 · 1 Comment

I am a pretty heavy email user and Mondays seem to be all about clearing out and responding to 2 days worth of email, that is until I started using mobile email. Now I am able to read my email over the weekend (if I’m inclined) and have it marked as read back in my [...]

Nokia E72 lets you Leave Your Point & Shoot Camera at Home

August 11th, 2009 · 17 Comments

So I’m very excited about the E72.  It’s going to rock, blah blah blah, I can talk about it for hours.  I think it will change a few things for many people.  It looks like your average QWERTY keyboard phone, it will have good email (I use emoze), it will hopefully include Ovi Contacts (but [...]

When will we have one inbox for all communications?

July 19th, 2009 · 6 Comments

I use messaging a great deal, from sms to email to instant messaging to Twitter to video chat to voice mail (unfortunately), I spend a lot of time communicating.  I was thinking recently when will we see messaging apps evolve again?  I’m hoping Google Wave will help but I don’t think it will take it [...]

Emoze to the rescue as usual when Nokia Messaging hiccups

July 16th, 2009 · No Comments

Apps I loaded on E71

July 13th, 2009 · 3 Comments

I left on vacation a few days back, as I write this I’m in the passenger seat of a giant 12 passenger Ford F350 van.  This thing is a monster but I like it. I’ve been preparing my electronic gear bag (I like to call it my toy bag) and I never know exactly what [...]

Great news for Nokia S40 users, emoze is now being shipped with a link in the Ovi Store to download emoze. This is a really big deal because S40 is the single most popular platform in the world for mobile phones.  I’m on vacation (holiday) so instead of going into detail I will just copy [...]
