With all the attention focussed on the Nokia N8 announced this week, Nokia sneaked out another new handset, the Nokia X2. The X2 doesn’t come anywhere near the N8 in terms of features, but what it does show is that Nokia are in a position to release what would have been a strong mid range device just a while ago as a bargain budget handset, with a price to match.

Twitter has been around for quite a long while and so has Android, but there hasn’t been an official Twitter app for users of Android phones who like to share the minutiae of their every thoughts every minute of every day. Until now, that is. The Twitter team has just announced through their official blog that Twitter for Android is already available in the Android marketplace, and it serves its purpose as a convenient way to delivery tweets straight from a user’s phone while offering tight integration with other services and Android features. Twitter for Android enables users to access tweets with a special home screen widget, as well as while viewing maps, scanning the phonebook, or any application that uses Android’s QuickContact bar

Official Twitter app launched for phones running Android 2.1 and later
Android has never had a seriously good Twitter application, but the official Twitter for Android app, now available in the Android Market, looks to be one of the best offerings for the platform yet. The UI is clean as can be and the app has pretty much all of the features you’d expect from a premium application including: full support for widgets, viewing users’ tweets from the Quick Contact bar and uploading images and videos straight from the Gallery.

Official Twitter for Android app released
Twitter just released their own client for Android. This joins quite a few applications on the platform including Twidroid, TweetCaster and HTC’s own Peep. According to the blog post it was developed with the Android team. It looks like a nice implementation, but does not support multiple accounts and requires Android 2.1.

To anyone who’s ever written a line of code, pre-canned/auto-generated apps are the scourge of the App Store world. For anyone who just wants to be able to say “Me? There’s an app for that! LOL!” without having to dedicate their lives to waging war against semi-colons and pouring through documentation, however, they’re a god send. Love’em or hate’em, Nokia has just embraced’em.

I’m actually a real asian male, but with I’m Proclaimer loaded in front of my face, I look positively Scottish (like those guys from the Proclaimers). I’ve played the song “ 500 Miles ” well over 500 times in my lifetime, and so I thought I owed it to the band to check out their first app in this ultra quick review. Advantages : Two whole Proclaimer faces to choose from Increased kilt-wearing ability Genuine blinking action Disadvantages : Temporary loss of sight and mobility Punches to the face can now destroy iPhone Cannot load I’m Proclaimer *and* Voice Band simultaneously (real singing voice still required) Sure, I’m Proclaimer is just a marketing trick to spread the word of the band’s real upcoming app, iProclaimer , but it worked on me. The website is even going to offer a version of the app that comes with a free roll of tape (to save you the trouble of holding the iPhone up to your face — hands-free impersonating!) © Ragart for Just Another iPhone Blog , 2010.

By now, many may have heard about or read in full Steve Jobs’ “Thoughts on Flash” statement released yesterday. While much of what was written in the statement (and discussed around the Internet) was specific to Adobe and Flash, a statement by Jobs in the section entitled “Sixth, the most important reason” , can have a far broader effect on mobile device development – “We know from painful experience that letting a third party layer of software come between the platform and the developer ultimately results in sub-standard apps and hinders the enhancement and progress of the platform. If developers grow dependent on third party development libraries and tools, they can only take advantage of platform enhancements if and when the third party chooses to adopt the new features. We cannot be at the mercy of a third party deciding if and when they will make our enhancements available to our developers

Introduction Competition in the mobile industry is fierce, and there are a number of manufacturers who are chasing hard the number one position that has been held for so long by Nokia. Not one to rest on their laurels, Nokia are slowly re-aligning their handset line up, including a new naming culture for their devices which should make it easier for consumers to know more about the phone before they purchase. Handsets will be designated by a single letter which will indicate the market focus of the device, whilst the number of the phone will show the level of technical specification. The existing N Series and E Series device names will be retained, and these will be joined by C Series and X Series. Two handsets have been released by Nokia in the X Series range so far, the X6 and X3 and we’ve had an X3 in the office over the last couple of weeks to review.

As more and more people start accessing the Web from their phones, it’s getting ever more important for publishers to optimize our sites for mobile experience. One way to do that – is to create a version of the site, optimized for mobile browsers. But now the other trend is emerging – stand alone apps for a site or blog, to run on Android, iPhone or Symbian OS. The problem with the stand alone apps is, that you have to know how to make them. Or hire some who does
