S60

The best way to learn a new language or a new framework is to find an idea and implement it. So I’m doing for Qt on S60. So I decided to implement a dummy browser that has some smart/attractive/peculiar/interesting/funny bits. QDetroBro Because I’m lazy to package and attach code, and because is always good the evolution of a project from the ground-up, I decided to post it on my GitHub account. You can find it at: http://github.com/detronizator/QDetroBro/tree/master. ...

What is relevant for me is the list of phone with which it will work: Will it work with my phone? Google Latitude is a feature of Google Maps for mobile on these phones: Android-powered devices, such as the T-Mobile G1 (coming soon) iPhone and iPod touch devices (coming soon) most color BlackBerry devices most Windows Mobile 5.0+ devices most Symbian S60 devices (Nokia smartphones) many Java-enabled (J2ME) mobile phones, such as Sony Ericsson devices (coming soon) This service is free from Google; carrier charges may apply. ...
