I know it's desperately sad, but it's also jaw-droppingly cool at the same time. LightSabre 1.1 just got released (thanks, Ricky) for the Nokia N95, with faster response and green screen power. It'll be the talk of the Office Christmas party, I tell you...
PiZero is a genius, I tell you. His latest S60 theme, simply titled 'Gold' is stunning and is now standard equipment on the editorial E90 and N95.

Which is why I love mobile portals and transcoders. And the folks at igloo have told me about their portal, which looks very well stocked. And don't forget about two other low bandwidth solutions, Mippin and Mowser, both of which have been updated recently. Happy browsing!
(C) 'Attention Grabbing Headlines Ltd.' No, of course, I wouldn't rather have a 'classic' N95 than the newer 8GB model, if offered both for Christmas, but there's still a real story here. I argue that there are enough positives for the 'classic' as to keep it a contender. Read on...
