Nokia Morph Concept
Jaro 28. February 2008 :: future, morph
This is something I want to share with you. I usually don’t post these kind of news articles here but this video is really cool. Nokia Research Center and Cambridge Nanoscience Center teamed up and created a concept of a future device. You better watch the video yourself:
What do you think? Can you see it happening during your lifetime?

Quick Tip: SMS
Jaro 27. February 2008 :: quick tip, sms
This is another article from the Quick Tip series. If you have a tip you would like to share with thousands of readers, send it via email to contact@nokiae50.info.
1.) Sending SMS – to quickly send an SMS, press the green Send key (green) instead of going to Options – Send.
2.) Adding Recipient – adding a contact to the To field is faster if you switch the input mode from numeric to alpha (long press # key) and type the required name. After you typed the name, press the Selection key. If the selected contact has more than one number asigned, you’ll be presented with a pop-up window to select the desired number.
3.) Save Draft – quickly save an unfinished message as draft by pressing the End key (red).
4.) When you receive a new message, long press left softkey Show. Your message will be read by a voice reader. Very useful when you are driving a car! This works even with the keypad locked. (Thanks to papudrun and unwired from the forum for this tip)

Restart Your Phone With One Click
Jaro 11. February 2008 :: eq restart, reboot, restart
A couple of days ago I’ve come across an application which lets you restart your mobile. I’ve been dying for this function in the S60 phones. I’m not sure why Nokia hasn’t implemented it yet. The application that does this is called EQ Restart and you can download it for free – download EQ Restart. Before you can install the application you’ll have to sign it. The signing process is quite difficult but there is a great guide available here.

EQ Restart will restart your phone immediately after selecting the icon, no warnings. To take a real advantage of this application I recommend you to place it on your home screen to access it fast (Tools – Settings – Phone – Standby mode – Active standby apps.). As far as I can see EQ Restart bypasses PIN code request which is great – no need to enter it every time you restart your phone.
The only thing I’m missing is a confirmation query – Do you want to restart your phone?. That would make the EQ Restart perfect. Read about the benefits of restarting your phone every now and then.
