Remind me when I’m at …

My reminders look like this: Michael’s birthday in three days and Time to leave for dentist appt. They’re entered in a calendar app. They’re triggered when I arrive at a particular date or time. But what about when I arrive at a particular place? Since I have GPS in my Nokia N810 Internet Tablet, why can’t I get re... [More]

Full Linux (almost)

0
0

Every time I mention the Nokia Internet Tablets — on the web or in conversation — I always describe them as running “a full Debian Linux (modified to be aware of the hardware keys).” I used to say “virtual keyboard and hardware keys” but the N810 obviates that. This passes the truth-in-advertising test,... [More]

Nokia Audiobooks: what we need to hear

0
0

Poking around the Nokia BetaLabs site recently, I learned about Nokia Audiobooks, which is pretty much just what you’d expect: Recorded books that you can listen to on your Nokia S60 phone. The description points out that MP3 compression isn’t really suited for voice, and that using the AMR-WB codec* makes for way smaller file... [More]
