Symbian in the news

Yes, it's that time in the month. PDA Essentials magazine is out, issue 74, this time with a two page feature on N-Gage, a two-page tutorial on location tagging your photos on the N95, plus a review of the Sony Ericsson W960i as part of an iPhone killers group test. Good reading, as usual!

Read on in the full article.

Steve, I have never seen the magazine, but are you guys contributing to it (i.e. write stories for it)?

Steve writes for it, the rest of us don't.

In each issue, I write the Symbian Help desk items, plus one tutorial, and then do features every now and then. In this case, I did the N-Gage feature, for example, but not the W960i review, which was part of someone else's group test.

Ok, if that's the case, it would really be great if that was mentioned each time.. you know, just in the interest of transparency. I was wondering why this magazine is always plugged in.

Ok.. maybe am slow or need new glasses (I actually do), but cannot see it anywhere this time at least:

The W960i came in last, alas, with 6/10 overall. Quoted downsides were 'laggy apps', 'long bootup' and a 'four second pause between music tracks'.

Share This (Digg, del.icio.us, Facebook"

Or do I need to click yet another time somewhere?

In this case, the mention was in the comments. I didn't mean it was always in the story itself.

Can we stop now please??

PDA Essentials is easily the best of the phone mags here in the UK: I've had to stop reading the others (and most Apple-focused mags too) because they are so clearly swayed by the manufacturers.

On topic, the W960i gets, to my mind, an amazing amount of love from the online commentators. My girlfriend has one and it's fairly horrible. She's a classic 'I want to use it not know everything about it' consumer and it's just not responsive at all.
