No, I do not have one of these, and unfortunately I do not have money to change my N80 for any thing else for now (do not miss understand me, I like a lot my N80) …

But think about it, wouldn’t it be great to have an OpenMoko ?
The cell phone is spectacular!
take a look at the hardware specifications …

• 120.7 x 62 x 18.5 (mm)
• 2.8″ VGA (480×640) TFT Screen
• Samsung s3c2410 SoC
• Global Locate AGPS chip
• Ti GPRS (2.5G not EDGE)
• Unpowered USB 1.1
• Touchscreen
• micro-sd slot
• 2.5mm audio jack
• 2 buttons
• 1200 mAh battery (charged over USB)
• 128 MB SDRAM
• 64 MB NAND Flash
• Bluetooth 2.0

Besides even the hardware is “open”, you can go to the site, get all the specifications and build your own if you want

I think this one, makes the iPhone, the last “big hipe”, looks like obsolete

I hope that it comes to brazil next year (here we have a delay problem with almost all the new stuff ).
They have plans to make this toy available world wide before the end of this year, but for now, if you want to develop software for one of this, you can buy one, just checkout their website.

They just published a press release, take a look at it and tell me what do you think about this new toy

as I wrote in the last post, I have just hard reseted my N80, and there ware some missing applications here (there is one missing yet … )
I have installed some more apps here, and I think some of you might be interested in some good freeware apps for your Symbian S60 3rd edition

so, here is the list …

Log Export - A very cool application, that enables you to export your phone log, with all your call history, data transfers, …
Very usefull for me …
Nokia Mobile Search - Never loose a file on your phone again, this new version searches for files in your phone too, not only does web searches as the build-in version
Nokia Maps - this is the new name for the smart2go, very cool mapping application, and the best of it is that it have maps for Brazil too

Well, it is all freeware so, give it a try …

PS.: does any one know any call recorder for Symbian S60 3rd edition? I prefer freeware, but if it has a reasonable price, it is OK too …

I just hard reseted my N80, I do not know if the “symbian people” use this words as I used in my “PDA times”, but this means “reset the phone to the factory settings”, before you ask how to do it, it is just write the code that you can find here.
But the reason of this post is to tell you, what softwares did I reinstalled after this Hard Reset.
Why?
well, because, these are the ones that I really use!
and it may be used as a tip for yu, if you are looking for smart phone software for your Symbian
so, lets go to the list …

• Handy Expense - A great piece of software that helps me take control over my money (yes, I need help on that)
• Handy Alarm - a tool that makes the “alarm clock” of my symbian obsolete, with this one I can schedule multiple alarms, three of them for the time I wake up for work every week day (yes, three because I have problems to wake up every day), and some other ons when I need
• Quick Office 4 Premium Update - an update for the Quick Office suite that enables me to edit the files.
• Y-Browser - a better file manager for S60

and that is all, these are all the software that survived my Hard reset, I know that I`m missing some thing, but I`m sure I`ll remember when I need it
The two Handy … you can find here.
And if you want the Y-Browser, you can take a look at this post.

PS.: yes, I have payed for all the commercial softwares, I do not approve pirate software.
PS2.: the only problem I`m having with my phone now, is that I can not format my mini SD card, and every time I try it says that the card is in use, and every time I insert the card it tries to install some thing and fails …
