Why can't my S60 phone do that?
It's all very well standing there smugly with your new Nokia N or Eseries phone, knowing that it's functionally superior to your friend's Apple iPhone. But when you both turn on your devices, it's the iPhone that people gather round, partly because of the larger screen (covered here - The Pull of Real Estate, Intensity and Interaction), but also partly to watch its party tricks.

Alternative business models for commercial software
Until now commercial software has generally been based around the traditional business model of selling a product directly to the user. Piracy is seen as a threat to this business model, and many commercial publishers have responded to this with various kinds of DRM, but are there alternatives to the model which could make piracy irrelevant?
