Yesterday I needed a webcam. And I don’t have one, so I thought: why not use my phone! And after googling some keywords, I found a solution: Smartcam. This is a piece of software (actually two pieces), that allows your phone to be used as a webcam via bluetooth. So I now have my webcam always with me!
I’m a gadgetfreak. Almost every half year I buy a new phone. Not because I have to, but because I want to. A chronological list of the phones I’ve had:
And now I’ve ordered a Nokia E71. In the list above there was always something wrong with each device: unstable, too big, no 3G, slow, bad calendar etcetera. My favourite device was the Palm Treo 680. Palm has a wonderful OS. It doesn’t look very modern, but the usability was excellent. If it had 3G, I would have kept the device. But my provider (Telfort) stopped providing EDGE connectivity, so I was forced to buy a new phone.
Now let’s hope the E71 meets my expectations, and I hope this is the device that lasts longer than my previous devices! Will this be my ultimate phone?
