Cutting In Line: Cydia Beats The AppStore To Queueing

If you haven’t noticed already, Cydia can now handle queueing of apps. So instead of installing every individual app I mentioned in my previous article, check out how to queue up a batch: Warning: It’s probably a good idea not to queue up too many apps. It’s also a good idea to put your...

skypeIt’s official.  Or at least, it will be official by Tuesday March 30th around 3:30 PM PST.  Skype for iPhone is out.

Sure, you’ve been able to connect to your Skype account with Fring ot Truphone, but this is the official Skype app.  Will it leave the other Skype apps in the dust?  We’ll need to wait until tomorrow to see.

Shozu download site lists E71 with Feature Pack 2

e71 fp2 150x150 Shozu download site lists E71 with Feature Pack 2I recently had to return my review devices to Nokia Blogger Relations, which means I had to resetup an old fone to carry around until the next batch arrives.  I went back to the E62 from at&t, which is a big, heavy, slow device, but it’s got a qwerty and it’s available.

So of course the next thing I’ve gotta do is sync it to my Exchange server, and install a bunch of apps.  But what apps run on an old E62 with S60 (not FP1 or FP2)?  Share Online might install the 3.0 upgrade for the N73, but only if I’ve got Share Online 2.0 installed, which I don’t.

So I decided to check out Shozu.  Now, the E62 doesn’t even have a camera, but I’m hoping to be able to update blog posts from this old dinosaur.  Of course the E62 isn’t listed on the Shozu site, but the N73 is, and they both run S60 so it should work.  Yup, it’s installed.

But the most important thing to remember is : m.shozu.com lists the E71 FP1 *and* an E71 with FP2!  Could this be the fabled E71x due on at&t wireless on April 1st?  If there’s an E71 with FP2, sign me up.  This E62 is cramping my style!
