Skyfire 1.5 Goes Beta on 5800, Does More than Mere Browsing

Filed Under Nokia 5800 News

skyfire-logo Yeah, Skyfire-the only other mobile browser (other than symbian and microB), capable of rendering flash content on mobile devices is now available for symbian fifth edition device, still in 1.5beta though. We have been waiting to get our hands on this browser from our 5800s since long and the dawn of 2010 has finally bought this amazing browser to our dear Tube 5800s.

So, what’s the thing with this Skyfire which made this browser win the “People’s Voice Best Mobile Application” in the 2009 Webby Awards? Well, we have already spilled the beans on this one-flash support and couple that with “blazing fast” browsing speeds and you have one gem of a browser for your mobile phones. Ok, so if it’s that good how does it fare on our 5800s? Hit the read button to find out. Read more »

Free Turn-by-Turn Voice Guided Navigation on your 5800s with Ovi Maps

Filed Under Nokia 5800 News

We were hoping something like this would happen but we would be lying to you if we claim to have smelled this before Nokia left this cat out a couple of days ago.  Yeah, we are talking about the new avatar of Ovi Maps offering  free turn-by-tun voice guided navigation across 74 countries in 46 languages.

The latest move by Nokia is taking the navigation tools competition to a new level, a level very few services can sustain. Google started the trend with its similar free service in the US with its android app but Nokia beat them hands down, by offering a similar service across the globe and going by the present market penetration of Nokia devices, it’s anybody’s guess which is going to shape the navigation industry in the long-run.

Social Messaging Beta Gets an Update: Looks Neat

Filed Under Nokia 5800 Applications, Nokia 5800 News

Social Messaging BetaIf one had to dedicate the last year to something that transformed the way we use technology in our daily life, it’s gotta be the evolution of networking services in day-to-day life. Popular social networking services like Facebook and Twitter not only got bigger but also added more teeth to their potential uses in the practical world. If Twitter was put to good use during the recent Afghanistan Presidential election episode, Facebook is being increasingly used by HR personnel worldwide for employee profiling. Not surprisingly the year saw an emergence of tons of mobile apps bringing popular networking services to mobile handsets. The latest entry to this genre is Social Messaging from Nokia.

Social Messaging, one of the latest beta apps from Nokia Labs has been doing the rounds on the web and early adopters for a while now and the beta app got an update sometime last month. While the update did fix a few critical bugs, some new ones have surfaced in the latest version. How bothersome are these bugs in practice? Is the app ready for the mainstream users? Find your answers after the break. Read more »
