hello 5800

I bought a UK nokia 5800 on day of release. This blog is my ongoing user review.

Coming soon: Maemober A month spent using just a nokia N900 as my only computer/device.

More TV fun, this time its the sky app, which lets you set your sky+ remotely. And it works - a little set up is required, you need to set up an account at sky.com.  But its simple and does the job.  I even managed to record something on the train home that started 15 mins later with no problem, though it warns to allow 30 mins for the request to sync.  The app is little slow, and duplicates the sky EPG interface literally, down the the coloured ‘remote’ buttons.  It would probably be wiser to adopt an interface familiar to and optimised for the target device.

It also refuses to let me access the streaming content - saying my service provider (t-mobile) does not support it - though I am sure they were pushing mobile sky streaming on the N96!
