Nokia 5800, Facebook, Garmin MobileXT and Opera Mobile

How have you all been? I'm doing fine here except that am recently tied to writing my site report and getting my paper published on my department's yearly newsletter. Well, just to get some fame and stuffs like that because it's a way to market myself.

Back to the topic. I've been using my Nokia 5800 for almost 9 months now. Throughout the time Nokia has released some minor updates on the software. The latest being V31.0.101 which came after a month or two after V31.0.008. Noticeably amazing is better system stability and faster time. Nine months of loyalty does pay off especially when users like me get to enjoy more applications brought to us by OVI and the faster response time.

I've just got myself a new theme. It's a theme from Symbian Foundation, so far the bestest theme I've had for my phone. The funny creatures, the creative sketches and the blend of colours are just my taste. Following are screenshots on a Nokia 5800. Download here>>

One thing I can't live without is facebook. For Nokia 5800 owners, we are treated with a special site just for facebooking, it is none other than touch.facebook.com specially tailored for Nokia smartphones. Otherwise you may also install the facebook application from OVI. As for me, I still prefer the touch site. Download here>>

Fulfilling my everyday survival in this concrete city, Garmin Mobile XT gives me a fast and full navigating experience. After installation, I always update my map from My Asean Free Maps. If you are looking for the software just google it. Google here>>

If navigating is not what you need, Google Maps might just be perfect for you. With Google Maps you never have to carry a paper map again as your current location can be determined, and driving/transit directions are shown. Even phone numbers and addresses for local business are available. Download here>>

There's one thing about Opera Mobile 10 beta, Opera Mobile 10 beta gives me true full web experience. It's free! It has a new user interface and highly intuitive to use. Checking emails and reading online news while on the go is my kind of lifestyle. Download here>>

What are you waiting for? Go try out what I've recommended, I'm sure you'll like it. Lunch time is almost over, I better get back to my report writing.

    • Simple, just follow set it to ‘always ask’. Here’s how you can do it:
      Main menu > Options > Settings > General > Access point and set ‘Always ask’
