Design 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.

Bill posted a really great resource: Flash Lite market percentage (as of January 2008). Those numbers are from U.S and Western Europe and give quite good impression of the target market in those selected regions. Listed numbers include Nokia S60, Nokia Series 40, Sony Ericsson and BREW. It’s especially great to see the numbers of devices separately for each platform as well. I always thought UK had the most S60 devices in Europe, however it’s clear that Italy is the leader.
We are once again proud to be mentioned as a “Success Story” by Forum Nokia and featured on Nokia Enablers and Infrastructure web page!
How cool would it be if developers and designers could create great-looking S60 applications without any special technical knowledge? Creating mobile applications for S60 devices generally requires knowledge of Symbian OS, the platform’s underlying operating system, and the C++ programming language. However, simplicity is the promise of Kuneri Ltd.’s KuneriLite, a rapid application development toolkit that lets users create S60 applications on a PC using only Flash Lite from Adobe. “There is no need to know anything about Symbian OS, since the developer never touches any Symbian code,” says Ugur Kaner, CEO and co-founder of Kuneri Ltd.
You can also get the PDF of the interview or access from Nokia page.
It’s a proud moment for us to be on Forum Nokia as a featured developer with our product KuneriLite. Check it out to get to know us and our vision better.
In this interview we speak with Ugur Kaner, CEO of Kuneri about the company, the products and what he sees on the horizon for mobile development.

Ugur.-
Nokia today announces their plans to bring Microsoft’s Silverlight into S60 platform.
Silverlight is cross-platform plug-in for browser which competes with technologies like Adobe Flash and Flash Lite.
The arrangement with Nokia will substantially extend the reach of Silverlight by making the platform available for hundreds of millions of devices, including S60 on Symbian smartphones from a range of manufacturers, as well as Nokia Series 40 devices and Nokia Internet tablets.
Today S60 developers can use: C++ (using native Symbian OS APIs and Open C providing subset of standard POSIX libraries), S60 Web Run-time (supporting standards-based web technologies such as Ajax, JavaScript, CSS and HTML), the Java(TM) language, Flash Lite from Adobe, and Python.
Today, we are proud to announce the availability of KISS60 Beta 0.9! We have been working hard to make it exceptionally good looking, highly functional and pleasant to use. New version of KISS60 is one of the best examples, exposing the potential of our innovative platform KuneriLite and demonstrating the next generation S60 User Experience. Now you can enjoy Flash Lite screensavers on your S60 device even more and easily manage them using our software.
KISS60 is also a great potential for content aggregators, advertisers and screensaver developers. It enables Flash Lite content on 20% more devices, increasing content availability and boosting revenues. KISS60 has a very flexible content download system, that can be integrated into any kind of payment system or distribution channel. Furthermore, availability of many free screensavers makes it a very powerful advertising platform.
Some feature highlights;
- Interactive S60 UI with Flash Lite
- Enable Flash Lite screensavers on your S60 phone
- Easily manage your screensavers
- Simply download free screensavers from free KISS60 gallery
- Share KISS60 and your screensavers with other S60 and Series 40 phones
- Set up screensaver timeout and backlight duration
