Beta testers needed for LocaNote Lite on S60v5
Tam Hanna of both TamsPalm and Tamoggemon Software fame is a well established developer of mobile applications for several different handheld platforms. He just issued the following press release:
Tamoggemon’s LocaNote has always been a software critic’s darling – the product’s highly innovative features impressed Symbian so much that Tamoggemon was invited to demo its next-generation notetaker at the Mobile World Congress.
LocaNote Lite will be sold for an MSRP around 5 Euros on the Ovi Store in the near future (detailed time and pricing will be announced at a later point in time). The Lite version of the product allows its users to take an unlimited amount of handwritten notes.
These notes can then be stored in folders – folder structures can be more than eight levels deep to make finding individual notes easy.
Finally, notes can be filtered to make finding stuff easier:
We are extremely proud to announce that LocaNote Lite is now ready for beta testing, and are looking for testers. People who own an XM5800 or N97 should get in touch with Tam Hanna via Tamog (at) gmx (dot) at to be considered for inclusion!
Further features like on-the-go printing, GPS and draw-on-photos will become available in LocaNote Plus and Pro, which are scheduled for Q4 2009. Existing LocaNote Lite customers will be offered attractive upgrade pricing, which will also be disclosed at a later date.
P.S. Customers can tune in via http://www.tamoggemon.com/s60/loca/index.html

Palm Promo Video - This is Funny!
At the wrap-up of the “D: All Things Digital” conference, Palm’s executive chairman Jon Rubinstein and Elevation Partners’ managing director and co-founder Roger McNamee shared the spotlight in several ways, including showing the video below which makes light of hype surrounding the new Palm Pre and it's webOS.
The video doesn't contain much in the way of accurate or enlightening information, but it's certainly good for a laugh! Enjoy!
Palm Unveils More webOS Details
CARLSBAD, Calif., 28 May 2009 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Today at The Wall Street Journal's D: All Things Digital conference, Palm, Inc. (Nasdaq: PALM) introduced attendees to the latest features of the Palm(R) webOS(TM) platform, including Palm media sync, the integration of Twitter in universal search, and a beta version of its App Catalog. Jon Rubinstein, Palm executive chairman, and Roger McNamee, Palm director and co-founder of Elevation Partners, debuted the new webOS features, which will be available on the new Palm Pre(TM) phone when it launches June 6 on Sprint's mobile broadband network.(1)
Palm Media Sync
Palm media sync is a feature of webOS that synchronizes seamlessly with iTunes, giving you a simple and easy way to transfer DRM-free music, photos and videos to your Palm Pre.(2) Simply connect Pre to your PC or Mac via the USB cable, select "media sync" on the phone, and iTunes will launch on your computer desktop. You can then choose which DRM-free media files to transfer.
"We designed Palm media sync to be an easy and elegant way for you to take the content you own and put it on Pre, and it's just one of the ways we think you'll be amazed by webOS," said Rubinstein. "We've had an overwhelming response since we introduced Pre at CES, and with availability just days away, we can't wait to let everyone see firsthand what the excitement is all about."
Pre also acts as a mass storage drive, letting you side-load your media content. Once connected to a computer using the USB cable, Pre will appear as a drive on the computer desktop. You can drag and drop music, photos or video files onto your Pre, or drag files from your Pre to the computer. And, just like a digital camera, Pre works directly with your computer's default desktop photo software to seamlessly import photos captured with Pre's built-in 3-megapixel camera.
In addition to listening to music transferred from your desktop, you can use the on-device Amazon MP3 store to purchase individual songs or full albums over-the-air. You can search by artist, song and genre, and preview and purchase music files. You can then download purchased tracks when you're connected to a Wi-Fi network.
Twitter in Universal Search
Palm also announced that Twitter search is integrated into webOS universal search.(3) Universal search is about finding what you want quickly, whether it's an on-device contact to call, a place you're trying to get to, or a Wikipedia article for encyclopedic information. Just start typing and Pre will figure out if you're looking for a contact, an application, or even let you search the web via Google, Google Maps, Wikipedia and now Twitter. Universal search uses Twitter's search service to sort through real-time current events and news, so universal search now covers every aspect of search on the web: general info, location, encyclopedia, and news.
Twitter's ability to show what's going on right now is a perfect fit for what universal search and Pre are all about. You don't have to be a Twitter user to benefit from Twitter in universal search. It's available for all users, even if they don't have an account, so anyone can keep on top of real-time news and the latest trends.
App Catalog
Rubinstein and McNamee also gave conference attendees an advance look at the beta version of the App Catalog, which will be available on Pre at launch. The beta version will feature applications from developers such as AP News, Citysearch, Fandango, Pandora and uLocate.
"We've received excellent feedback from participants in the Mojo SDK early access program and look forward to the SDK's public release. Developers are very enthusiastic about the platform's ease of use and industry-standard development model," said Rubinstein. "We're excited to launch Pre with the beta version of the catalog, which will give a taste of how the overall webOS ecosystem will work."
The App Catalog was demonstrated at the conference using Fandango's webOS application, which takes advantage of Palm Synergy(TM), a key feature of webOS. It also uses Pre's location-based services to find theaters near you, and lets you watch trailers, buy tickets, add showtimes to your calendar and get directions to the theatre.(1) Also included in the beta App Catalog will be Pandora, which makes use of the platform's multitasking capabilities, running elegantly in the background while you're using other applications. It highlights a unique aspect of the notification bar that lets you know what song is currently playing, and control pause and play without having to go back into the application.
The Palm Pre phone will be available from Sprint on June 6 for $199.99 with a two-year service agreement and $100 mail-in rebate. More information is available at www.sprint.com/palmpre and www.palm.com.
