The new, version 1.3.14 of Python for S60 has been released. Compared with the version 1.3.11 (which was the last version we noted), the new version brings the following improvements:

  • Calendar has now been implemented for S60 3rd edition
  • Orientation switch and callback when screen change in canvas
  • Initial version of the contacts module for 3.0 has been added
  • Added support for OpenGL ES 1.0 – runs on all devices since Nokia 6630, and even supports the hardware acceleration on the N93
  • Added new method that gives access to device’s text-to-speech engine
  • And, of course, many of the known bugs are fixed

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
