That was the same thing I was doing, then I switched to Nokia Messaging, which is leaps and bounds beyond the included client. It works, its just not as good.

This isn’t just about paying for the usage up to this point, but all future sales too. There is a good little writeup here: [Nokia Sues Apple over patent infringement – rgbFilter](http://www.rgbfilter.com/?p=2152)

I’ll have to give it a shot then.

… But first I need a new phone battery because mine is about kicked after 3.5 years of use. :meh:

My phone came with bar code reader software. But I’ve only used it a few times. I guess it’s big in other countries to put codes on business cards so that others can scan them and import the data to the phone as a contact.

I can’t get it to run on the E71x. Between AT&T’s neutering and nobody bothering with making apps for an S60 3.2 E71, this thing’s a pain in the ass. (The standard E71 has S60 3.1)

Playing with shozu now. Seems like it integrates nicely with facebook, picasa web albums, etc. Except that after I paid $4.99 for it, it’s saying that I’m using an unlicensed version and won’t let me upload media. WTF.

Ok, you guys with the E71 have the BP-4L battery right?

I need to run out tonight and find a AT&T store where they might have extra batteries I can buy for my phone. I figure I can find one locally if the E71 shares the same battery as mine.

I _think_ my brothers E71 uses a BP-4L…

I would imagine they do. The fee just unlimits the number of texts/emails.

Probably will install this weekend and use it for fun…

Hmm. I installed Ovi Maps (formerly Nokia Maps). In the settings it lets you select/download a voice for directions. So I did. And now have voice guided nav. 😕 Supposedly this is a paid service but I haven’t paid for shit.

Cool. Voice guided navigation for free with ovi maps. The rest of the program looks really slick too. Check it out if you haven’t already.

Cool stuff.

Oh, and check this out: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNo6pn-dnSQ](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UNo6pn-dnSQ)

Basically, Maemo has the ability to run multiple phone operating systems. That is on an N800… Imagine having an N900 and being able to run whatever Windows phone OS / app you want while at the same time running Android, lol. You could use Windows for work, Maemo and Andriod for personal use… all at the same time. Why would you buy any other phone? 🙂

I think I need to add Maemo to the title of this thread…
