How to connect Internet using a Nokia on Macbook06.19.08

I used to use my lovely Nokia N76 (or N95) to connect to Internet with my unlimited GPRS (3G) data plan, whenever I had to sit on my ass for many hours in a train. I said I “used to”, because I neither use PC nor a Nokia (sorry guys, Apple stole my heart). Today, I gotta sit in a train for 5 hours, therefore had to figure out a way to connect to Internet with my Macbook and iPhone. But the thing is: I don’t have a 3G iPhone (yet), therefore I had to figure out how I could connect to Internet with my Nokia N95 on my Macbook (Leopard), which would be faster.

So this is how;

1. Go to ‘System Preferences’ on your dock

2. Select ‘Network”

3. Plug in your Nokia to your Macbook via USB cable (faster)

4. Select ‘PC Suite’ on the phone

5. You should now see your Nokia connected on left pane. Click on it.

6. Check ‘Show modem status in menu bar’ option and click on Advanced

7. Choose ‘Nokia’ as vendor and enter your APN (you can find it on N95 under Tools->Settings->Connection->Access Points->(Carrier name)->Access Point Name) and hit OK.

8. Click ‘Apply’ (this is important, otherwise nothing will happen)

9. Click ‘Connect’

That’s all. If it doesn’t connect you might need to enter a phone number, user name or password depending on your operator. Please contact to your operator or see operators web site for details.

Hope helps.

Ugur.-

iBattery screensaver05.09.08

iBatteryDesign province labs, creator of LiveU screensaver (which also is enabled on KISS60), released a new Flash Lite screensaver called iBattery.

It’s quite elegant, simple, and iPhone-like. You can see the battery level and time as well.

Great work!

Half a million iPhones in 72 hours07.02.07

Apple’s is a true marketing genius. 500.000 iPhones sold in 72 hours! According to analyst, Blackfriars, which has been monitoring stores, claimed that sales should top 500,000 for the first weekend.

The bottom line: some analysts claimed that the iPhone launch would be a failure if Apple failed to sell 100,000 iPhones during the first weekend. Based upon the limited data we have, we believe that number was exceeded in just the first two to three hours. Blackfriars’ prediction is that Apple will sell 500,000 iPhones this weekend, and based upon limited sales rates reported, that number now looks quite achievable. The only question is whether the demand and iPhone supply is great enough that they might push past the million unit mark this weekend.
