The great Flash application “RealVista Desktop” by … caused large attention, because it brought the amazing Vista optics to all Flash enabled S60 devices without changing or damaging any system file.

Phone Fight – a Multiplayer Accelerometer Fighting Game

I have just found another very cool multiplayer game which makes use of the accelerometer of the N95 and N95 8GB and N82.

Inspired by the popular “LightSaber”, Phone Fight is a prototype sword-fighting game for two players equipped with Nokia N95 or compatible phones. It makes use of the accelerometer within the phones to detect simulated sword slashes and blocks, and Bluetooth to communicate those moves between the phones and to notify the winning player of victory.

First Picture of the black N95 – the Navi Edition?

Maybe you remember my post about the upcoming N95 Navi Edition – an N95-1 including special navigation features (probably an unlimited Nokia Maps navigation license) and a 2GB microSD card packed into a black colored cover.

This version was listed at Amazon.de, however with pictures of the N95 8GB.

Now a new color of the N95 is available in the Italian Nokia shop – possibly the Navi Edition will look the same?

N95 8GB Copper – New brown Backcover seems to be coming

Yesterday I posted something about a possible new N95 8GB backcover.

Now I found a further picture at Ebay showing a brown N95 8GB, similar to the picture I already posted. It looks indeed like a photo and not like it has just been photoshopped.

The new color variant is called ”Copper”. PhoneSource USA and Plemix have already entered the new color variant into their product range. I think these are enough evidences that we’ll see a brown N95 8GB cover soon.

Again only the backcover has been changed, the front cover seems to have remained the same. Let’s see, when or whether we will se an “N95 8GB Copper”.
