We uploaded a sneak preview of next KISS60 version on YouTube. Most significant improvement is the new User Interface which is pure Flash Lite 1.1 (works much faster on real device than the video). Behind the scenes, there is a robust architecture powered by KuneriLite 0.9.4.

There are also some new features in next version. Now it’s possible to define screensaver timeout and backlight durations. It’s also easier to integrate your existing Flash Lite screensavers, in the new version.

We expect it to be ready at the end of this month and planning to make the first release in February at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. If you are going there, don’t forget to visit us;)

Here is a truly great interactive Flash Lite screensaver on KISS60: LiveU - Garden View. Thanks to DesignProvice labs publishing this great screensaver on KISS60. Now that all S60 owners can enjoy this piece of art, as we do :)

This morning I wrote about Pulsepaper, applications for automated wallpaper changing that make your active desk somehow alive and now I have something even cooler, a freeware flash lite based screensaver that truly brings your phone to life.

LiveU is an innovative concept that displays live animated and interactive screensaver on your favourite mobile devices according to the current time of the day.

Your device’s display is in sync with the actual time and screensaver shows the content according to the time set in the device as if it is live.
