First Augmented Reality App Comes to Symbian Devices

This is an exciting news and something that I believe would be of interest to many of Symbian users. There has been a lot of buzz recently about Augmented Reality Apps. What is AR you ask? According to Wikipedia “AR is a term describing a live video stream of a real-world environment whose elements are supplemented with-, or augmented by Computer-generated imagery.“. There are currently several AR apps available in different platforms with Layar Reality Browser for Android being the most popular out there.

And now it appears that Sequence Point Software from Spain have developed a Free AR app “ARound” for some of the S60 3rd and 5th edition phones. According to their website the application needs certain sensory in order to work so not all Symbian devices are supported. We don’t know much about the app and its capabilities but it available for download from their website so head on over and lets us know what you think.

Review : Netflix for Nokia

Netflix is a popular movie service where users can create a list of movies they want to watch, which are then mailed one at a time. Netflix has also released some new enhancements to its service including the ability to stream movies online and watch them on a PC.

I am not going to lie but after four years of being an avid user of Netflix, I cancelled my membership earlier this year. It was one of those decisions that I had to make since I wasn’t spending a lot of time at home and I also became a Boxee junkie so I figured I will break up with my Netflix. That decision only lasted about few months and as soon as the Netflix for Nokia app was released last month, I went right back and restored my account. Fortunately, this is a great app that helps you to view, update and add movies to your queue right from your phone.

Installation:

Netflix for Nokia is listed under the Entertainment category in the Ovi store and the download file is only 185MB. Once the application is downloaded, you will need to input your account credentials and it will then sync up with the Netflix servers and display your queue.
