Waiting for the new E-series phones

A few weeks ago, pictures of the so-called E61i/E62i surfaced on various cell phone websites and forums. The phone was supposed to be the E61 with a 3mp cam at the back. This got my hopes up, as I have been always dreamed of having the E61 with a cam. Then, Engadget, Darla Mack and other bloggers posted leaked pictures of the new nokia E80/E90 communicators. But, as the weeks go by, Nokia shows no signs of releasing any new E-series devices. And as I patiently await their arrival, an earnest request to nokia,

Please announce them officially before christmas!

The S60 application wishlist

As the title suggests, S60.com has set up a new application wish list to make the apps of your dreams come true.
From the website:

What do you wish you could do with your phone? Have you ever come up with a great idea for an application, but you wouldn’t have the first idea about how to build it? That’s what the S60.com application wishlist is for.

Post your ideas here, and application developers can take up your challenge. The application wishlist is like a meeting point between developers and phone users to give and get inspiration.

If you have any ideas, make sure to head on over to the Application Wishlist Page and submit your idea.

I was really interested in compiling a list of all the video-game emulators for series60 3rd edition. But whilst searching through the interweb for various emulators available, I came across this well written article at AllAboutSymbian titled Game Emulators on Symbian S60 3rd Edition devices. A good read, in my opinion.
