Yesterday Nokia send us their new flagship device: the N8. After all, we are in the N8 Commercial. So now we can see how our software runs on the device and what we can do with it.
I have to say, my first impression of this phone is much better than I’d expected. After their N96 debacle and the in my opinion slow and buggy first generation S60 Touch devices, this one feels snappy and made for touch. A more thorough review will follow later.
Remember KiloMeter Registratie? The smart and simple application with which you can keep track of your business and private mileage and register it to Google Calendar? We got BIG news for you! Now the app is available for Nokia also! So if you didn’t get it earlier because you don’t have an iPhone, now you can have it on your Nokia!
Will Microsoft be able to deliver something innovative for a change? We like Microsoft for giving us one of their Windows 7 Phones, but only if it actually is worth something to us. We like the ideas behind their mobile interface design, but it all comes down to the actual implementation of these ideas into something nice and comprehensive. It is supposed to arrive sometime this month, so we are waiting eagerly.
One of the two iPhones we got last week has already crashed and burned….Don’t accidentally drop your iPhone 4 – the glass is not that robust!
When it comes to a penalty shootout, the Dutch have a bad history. Because we want them to win this afternoon, we’ve created a Penalty trainer game, that can be run with Vuvuzela’s in the background if you run iOS 4 and take one of the VUVU sounds to play in the background.
Get the game and start training your penalty skills!
Even though nobody really noticed, Nokia is pushing it’s new N8 device together with the OVI store and all the nice apps that people can download there. Amongst the nicest of those apps are our apps, of course. And therefore Nokia is pushing our apps in their commercials. As you can see, Nulaz is right up there with Facebook. Really nice of them. Thanks Nokia.
Every now and then we see a simple solution to every day life nuisance, and we think: we can build an app for that. We know that there are already a couple of apps doing kilometer registration, but we wanted one that integrates with google apps, and we build it.
KiloMeter Registration is an application with which you can easily keep track of your business and private mileage. Kilometer uses google calendar to save the data, so you can create your own calendar to keep track of your mileage and print it, or export it for your tax registration.
If your business is running Google Apps this is a nice way to register the mileage of users.
Since the theme of next week’s online tuesday is “Mobile”, we will be presenting our insights and recommendations on this broad topic. We will present some of the apps that we love, the appst we hate, some that were successful, and others that were not. And we will give our vision of where things are going.
