Do you see it?

We are going to see a lot more Android phones. Well, if you can see it. ;-)

FT.com - A fight over freedom at Apple's core
by Volker Weber
This is the significance of the iPad. It could have been built either like a small Apple Macintosh - open to any outside software - or as a big iPhone, controlled by Apple. Apple went with the latter. Attach a keyboard to it and it could replace a PC entirely - boasting plenty of new apps, but only as Apple deems them worthy.
Download and install Symphony 3 Beta 2 in 20 easy to follow steps
by Volker Weber
Be careful at the actual download step and select HTTP instead of IBM Download Director. The choice is not obvious. Hey, we only do this so you don't have to. :-)

One important thing missing from Nexus One multitouch
by Volker Weber
Google does not claim multi touch capabilities in the Nexus One software update. They say "pinch-to-zoom mechanism in the phone's Browser, Gallery and Maps applications". What's really missing is key rollover on the soft keyboard.
You can test this on an iPhone and a Nexus:
- Hold down one key, like "W" for instance
- Now press a second key, like "L"
Different results: the Nexus will give you another W, while the iPhone recognizes the L. This is the reason why the iPhone keyboard is faster than the Nexus. You can type the next letter without having raised the finger from the last one you typed.

iPhone OS 3.1.3 brings back Internet Tethering to unlocked iPhones
by Volker Weber
Installing 3.1.3 is safe, if (a) you have an iPhone contract SIM installed and not jailbroken your phone, or (b) if you have an unlocked phone sold in a country that does not allow Apple to hold your iPhone hostage. If you have jailbroken your phone and unlocked it yourself, stay away for now.
If you have one of those originally unlocked phones, you gain Internet Tethering. If it's not in Settings/General/Network, you may need to add your APN settings first, which you can do from your iPhone at help.benm.at.
Btw: the iPhone feels pretty quaint after having used a Nexus One for two weeks.
Nokia N97 gets a minor software update
by Volker Weber
It is supposed to be fixing the kinetic scrolling introduced with 2.0. Apparently it is not yet available over the air, and I am not going to be bothered with the PC software.
