This fine small application allows you to take control over your pc in your network, from everywhere you want. Vnc viewers are generally used to support customers desktop computers, servers, workingstations, etc. for example in large companies, so the technician won’t have to be locally at the device itself. He is able to solve problems directly from his workstation, what is an efficient way to save costs (by the way). Before you can start, you have to install a VNC server on your desktop computer, such as UltraVNC or TightVNC (Mac ...

You got lots of videos, films or tv-shows stored on your Pc? Or your favorite music, cd collections and mp3 compilations? I was pretty excited about the possibility to hear music or watch videos on my N900 over my network while cooking dinner, exercising on the home trainer (I do not really do that) or even sitting in the bathroom . All you have to do is to setup an UPnP server. UPnP is short for Universal Plug and Play and runs over an IP network with standardized devices. On ...

It sounds really cool Nokia marketing its N900 flagship with navigation on board. Meantime everone of N900 owners know, that what we realize as navigation is not exactly what Ovi Maps on the N900 offers. So I tried what the so called “navigation” on the phone is really good for. Having an appointment about 100km away, I started the Ovi Maps from the desktop shortcut. It takes its time to startup, but once on your screen, it has a nice environment, and really easy use UI. Tapping the first letters of ...

First, I downloaded Evernote, I really didn’t figured it out, for what it was good to. I installed it on my N900, on my macbook and on my work-pc. I’m kind of an old school note writer. Ideas, sketches, things I have to remember, I used to write down my every day notes on my writing pad, which I was carrying with me, always. Now with the app installed, I just started to make my notes, on my N900, my mac and pc. On the N900 it isn’t really an app yet ...

Super Tux is a Super Mario clone for the N900 in which the player controls “Tux”, the penguin from the Linux logo, through a variety of snow filled levels, collecting coins and a variety of player upgrades. As in the original Mario, Tux starts the game as a small penguin, with no defences, who can only be hit once by an enemy before he is killed. Tux becomes less vulnerable by picking up power ups hidden in certain question marked blocks dotted around the levels. The first pick up, I assume ...

Many times we have pointed out the Nokia’s N900 capacity to have the full internet right at the palm of your hand and the amazing experience that this gorgeous device provides. However, it seems that there would be a new application coming soon that would take advantage of it and would take it to the limit. The application is called JoikuSpot and is already known for other devices such as Nokia’s Symbian devices. Its particularity is that it turns the Nokia N900 into a Wi-Fi hotspot making it possible for other ...
