I am looking for a Video player for my Nokia 6234 (i think) now that i have figured out how to save videos on youtube & put them on the phone. But it is not very smooth. any advice would be great.

I've been searching for a Speccy phone emulator for ages, shame it won't work on my Motorola, I'll have to take my Nokia 6110 out of retirement now!

www.ebuddy.com is pretty useful. Supports a few different messengers. Download app or run through browser.

Am I sensing a shift in brand loyalty at home from Nokia to SE? I've always been Nokia, and have an e51, which I think is fantastic. The bro and sis have SE, and swear they'd never go back after changing about a year ago.

Obviously Nokia have a fair wedge of the business market, but SE seems to be more and more popular among the casual market.

Anyway, my e51 has these apps:

WorldMate - Weather/Currency (very useful)/Time Zones for free. Flight info/Satellite weather extra subscription

Fring - Free IM and VoIP client, supports MSM, Google Chat, Yahoo, ICQ, AIM, Skype and SIP. Great for IMing, and also Skype mobile. Free

Google Maps - Standalone client, with 'My location' beta, using triangulation on mobile network for location. Free.

Gmail - Standalone mobile client, much better than the browser based one. Free.

Google Search - Fast app for google searches, lets you type search string before connecting online. Free.

Cabbage - Great app for using free online texts from your phone. Kudos to fellow boardsie Sam Vimes for creating it. Thread here. Free (donations appreciated)

Opera Mini - Nice free mobile browser, use it sometimes instead of the native one. Free

Oxford English Dictionary - Oxford English Dictionary for your mobile, free trial.

Handy Weather - Great mobile weather app, with updates and nice graphics and great details. Also puts weather forecast, time and date as
screensaver. Free trial.

Calcium - Excellent calculator for s60, kicks the native Nokia calculator's ass for ease of use and graphics. Free

Nokia Email - Beta email system for Nokia, push email a lá Blackberry. Still some issues, but pretty decent so far. Free, need to register.

Sensible Sudoku - Best mobile sudoku puzzle I've found, great picture, and easy to use. Millions of puzzles with varying levels of difficulty. Free trial.

Stopwatch Plus - Maddening that the e51 doesn't come with a stopwatch/timer, this app more than covers the bases. Was free, not sure now.
