I’ve finally got a shiny N810!

October 8th, 2008 · 2 Comments

After almost a year, I finally decided to buy the N810 and have to say i have a lot of mixed feelings about the device/platform/experience. I know there are already a million posts on this device, but I thought a list of pros and cons will definitely come handy since I am thinking about selling [...]

The next layer of convergence

October 1st, 2008 · 1 Comment

Recently, I was reading about the news of the “first specification for Interoperability and Preservation of Metadata in Digital Photography” from vnunet and although it’s great news on the photo-data standardisation process it’s really disappointing to see very few progress on the “data convergence front”.
You see the problem I have is that I have [...]

As time goes by, my memory is getting worse and worse, my schedule is getting  busier and busier and being mobile has become an important requirement to be cost effective as well as time efficient… so I had to find a good strategy to cope with my daily life and this post summarise my [...]

Symbian Foundation

July 1st, 2008 · No Comments

I (as many other people in the blogosphere strangely enough) don’t have a lot of time to write a proper post, so I’ll just post some quick "notes". I think the starting point is the fact that Nokia wants to keep having a fat profit in the near and long term future [...]

Can anyone produce an anti-stress mobile phone bag, please?

April 11th, 2008 · No Comments

Recently I started playing with a small heart anti-stress toy and I found it quite nice. The only downside is that I don’t want to carry this toy with me all the time so I leave it at home most of the time. However, there’s one thing I carry with me all day long (in [...]

Black & White pictures can be really beautiful

April 3rd, 2008 · No Comments

I’m sick as hell (I’ve got chicken pox or chicken porx since I’m a little overweight these days) and got time kill in bed. So I started spending more time in my latest hobby: photography. It’s strange how I used to take pictures just because of my photo obsessive-compulsive disorder and never realised I really [...]

Accelerometers can ruin your life… actually your battery life!

April 1st, 2008 · No Comments

It’s strange how sometimes people are very aware of the battery consumption of some applications but put all concerns aside when it comes to applications that use the internal accelerometer. Is it because they are all nice or because the application does not really give the impression of running in the background all the [...]

Quick one: Photography and Blogging…

March 20th, 2008 · 2 Comments

Two issues not related to each other but just wanted to very quickly comment few things.

Regarding blogging I found this nice pic in a post from microblogging.it (in Italian). The red part is my modification…isn’t blogging the platform which covers all the quadrants and likely be the core idea in future communications platforms? My guess is [...]

Playing with Python again..

February 29th, 2008 · 15 Comments

It’s been a long long time since I posted but was really busy with work. Anyway, I had some spare time yesterday and decided to play again with Python for S60… The good about Python is that you can really really make a small application in few minutes (or hours if you are not very [...]
