Just Mobile-ing Along

Just taking things a few devices at a time, or something like that.

I’ve gone ahead and consolidated my N95 and N800 into the new Nokia N97 (read my review at Brighthand). I like this device, and its pretty much the one that I’ve been waiting for since moving to Symbian devices.

Some of the positive aspects from using the N97 has been the screen and keyboard. Its a tiny bit larger of a screen than the 5800XM, and the built in 32GB of memory and sliding keyboard really speak well towards getting things done, or just letting me know how life is rolling on the internet-side of things.

Its also been attracting some interesting attention in church from folks who have mobile devices that do the sliding keyboard or touchscreen thing but want Bibles on their device. Its almost as if the N97 is more approachable in that context..

Now that I have the hardware I want, I wonder if things will improve with software like the mobile web server (like this) and aggregated address books (like this) so that connectivity can be more instinctive of a process, and then we can just get to the matter of using mobile/tech to solve issues.
