NS BASIC Announces NS Basic/Symbian

NS BASIC Corporation today announced NS Basic/Symbian, an an easy to use rapid application development tool. With a look and feel similar to Microsoft's Visual Basic, it will allow many new developers to create applications for Symbian OS devices.

NS BASIC's tools allows developers who have worked with Visual Basic to use their experience to develop applications for Symbian OS, Windows CE, Windows Mobile and Palm OS devices. They provide a complete, powerful development environment enabling the creation of applications for the enterprise, business, personal productivity and education.

"The ability to create apps for Symbian has been a frequent request.", said George Henne, President of NS BASIC Corporation. "There are a large number of developers that would like to create applications for Symbian OS that are not interested in learning C++. By leveraging on the work we have already done for Palm OS and Windows CE devices, we've created something that will let them get up to speed quickly."

NS Basic/Symbian is a complete, easy to use BASIC development environment for Symbian OS devices, with a look and feel similar to Visual Basic. NS Basic/Symbian provides a full, modern implementation of BASIC, with proper subroutines, user defined data types and event driven execution. The development environment runs on a Windows desktop.

NS Basic/Symbian includes over 150 statements and functions. Support is provided for file handling, TCP/IP, graphics and more. A full set of standard screen input and output objects and dialog boxes are included. A 150 page spiral bound Handbook and lots of sample code is included.

The environment features a Visual Designer, which allows you to graphically lay out your objects, set their properties and write code that responds to and controls them.

NS Basic/Symbian runs on all Symbian smartphones based on UIQ 3 or S60 3rd Edition.

A release date has not been announced. Pricing details are to follow.

IrRemote to be released on 1st of November?

A quick news about what was the reply from Psiloc team to the VERY comon question : any ideas about a release date? as i was reanding in the Psiloc Applications Google Group ;)

Active Notes : Finally for all s60 3rd edition!

Advanced notes manager(already included on E90) is available from nokia now for all s60 3rd edition! I'll remind you that in addition to text, you can embed images, sounds, videos, contact cards, Web bookmarks and files/documents. It saves all your jottings and object goodness in plain HTML format in an 'Activenotes' folder, from where you could drag them onto your desktop, objects and all, for further manipulation.

Active Notes steps into the breach, with a full multi-media friendly way of organizing your thoughts, media and even contacts. Although such a 'rich' tool isn't going to synchronize to anything else, the content IS portable, by virtue of Active Notes storing all information within a standard HTML and folder framework. Which means that you can then move it across to any other computer in the known universe and view the content in more or less the same way. Let's see how this works in practice...

[UPDATE] Mobile Web Server v1.1

Do you still remember my last post about the new upcoming release for Mobile Web Server? Well, it's out !
New features include:

- Chat : Visitors in your site can now initiate a chat with you. You can have multiple chat windows open with different people and one chat window can also serve as a "group chat". I've used this quite a bit lately and it's really a nice addition. Can be a little obtrusive too :)
- Presence : If you choose to do so you can share your presence information in your site. There will be an indicator on right top corner of your site showing battery status, local time, profile and a meeting icon if you are in a meeting. There is also a separate Presence button in left-side navigation.
- New languages: You can now choose another language for your site (Finnish, French, German, Italian or Spanish) and also the S60 application will have one those languages based on your phone settings.

Other improvements:

- Python for S60 version 1.4.1 : This is very much an "under the hood" thing but a major step since this contains some new features and fixes. One particularly interesting feature is the location module you can use to access the GPS capabilities on the phone. I'll write more about this later with examples.
- Improved snapshot camera : This is our native camera application. It will now autofocus correctly and get better resolution out of eg. Nokia N95's camera.
- General stability improvements : Pretty self-explanatory :) Let's just say that if you had problems with the first version many of them should have gone away. If not, let us know.
- WebDAV performance improvements : WebDAV (ie. Web Folders as it's called in Windows) feature was not very usable in some ways in 1.0 version, should be more usable now. I'll write more about this later also.

[UPDATE] Boopsie v2.18.1 : With integrated GPS tool

I'll remind you that Boopsie is smart prefix search means instead of typing out the whole word, all you need is the first few letters. Example: "Harry Potter." In Boopsie, that's "ha po." Easy!

For that, it uses a multi-prefix search - which means you only have to type the first few letters of words instead of the whole words as i said So, searching Wikipedia for "Desperate Housewives" is as easy as typing "des hou". Also, Boopsie uses a category search combined with keywords. So, to find the current temperature, select Wunderground Weather, then type "lag bea" or zip code "92651" for Laguna Beach, CA.

This new version of Boopsie supports on-board GPS as well as Bluetooth GPS.

New channels are added regularly. Some current channels are Amazon Books, Amazon Grocery, Caltrain Schedule, Celebrity Photos/Search, CitySearch SiliconValley, Date and Time, Dictionary, Encyclopedia, Epicurious, Fandango, IMDB, Sports Scores,
Surf/Ski reports, Stock quotes, Thesaurus, Wikipedia, etc.

- "View Friends" now shows when a user was last seen directly in the status bar as you move the map.
- The map can now be moved beyond 180 degrees longitude and it will be correctly wrapped. Also, invalid longitude coordinates are allowed and converted to the range that can be displayed.
- Some keys were updated for phones or PDAs with full keyboard: 'm' shows the menu, 'q' zooms in, 'a' or 'p' zooms out.
- Place details show the "straight-line" (shortest) distance from your current GPS position to the selected place for favorites, friends positions and KML results.
- Favorites can now be removed using the "Remove" option in favorite details.
- Other fixes and updates.

Some problems still unsolved:

- The "Update Check" does not correctly update the application if you have a signed version. Workaround: use Update Check to check for an update, if one is available close MGMaps and visit http://wap.mgmaps.com on your phone.
- The "1 Prev" and "3 Next" hints are shown even if there's a single search result. Note: you can turn off hints completely by unchecking the corresponding option in Settings/Display.
- The map quickly moves to your GPS position when you select a search result, if Mobile Tracking is enabled. Workaround: press "5" to temporarily disable Mobile Tracking when you wish to perform searches or to move the map manually.
- Font size for status bar is always small, even if you uncheck the Small Font option in Settings/Screen. The menu is not correctly resized when you switch Small Font on or off.
- Depending on the JVM used, Windows-Mobile phones or PDAs may not show the "Menu" option to open the menu. Workaround: press "8" to turn off full-screen mode, this should show the menu option. Or if your PDA has a pointer (stylus), click in the lower-left part of the screen.
