S60 v3 Calendar write-up

Published by at

Interesting to see is the latest editorial / technology update article appearing on S60.com, in this case talking up the features of the S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1 Calendar application, apparently integrating To-dos ("In the same way as Agenda on the Psion Series 3 back in 1991?" I hear some wag at the back shout... Yup.)

Feature Pack 1 for S60 3rd Edition is the first add on the the version of S60 announced at 3GSM in 2005. There are currently no phones using Feature Pack 1 of S60 3rd Edition, although the next round of Nokia S60 phone are likely to use the addon.

Other highlighted features of the Calendar in S60 3rd Edition Feature Pack 1 are:

  • Support for meeting requests (Outlook, Lotus Notes and iCalendar) via support for vCalendar version 2.0.
  • Support for downloading appointments, or series of events by Internet download or email.
  • Improved application performance.
