Many Symbian OS developers already know about
ad hoc networking using the Bluetooth APIs, but now they have a new
option: ad hoc networking over wireless LANs (WLANs). Using WLANs
offers a transmission distance of up to 100 meters -- 10 times farther
than that of Bluetooth connectivity. And as the base of smartphones and
Series 80 devices expands, developers will find that the market for
WLAN-capable, Symbian OS phone applications is growing, too. 
AppForge CrossFire now brings Visual Basic and C# development to the
latest Series 80 devices, the Nokia 9300 smartphone and Nokia 9500
Communicator.AppForge Crossfire enables ease of development and
deployment of enterprise, multi-platform applications on mobile and
wireless devices. AppForge Crossfire uses industry standard tools and
languages such as Microsoft C#, Visual Basic .NET, and Visual Basic 6. 
There are numerous shortcuts that help you get most out of your Series
60 phones, which are not very well know. I thought that it could be
nice to share some of them here on Moving Experiences. They are not in
any specific order.

Physically, memory cards are quite fragile pieces of high technology, susceptible to damage from various silly things like excessive heat, condensation, strong magnetic fields, physical damage from rough handling and/or bending! (similar to most electronic devices then..)Given the natue of mobile memory card products, they are constantly being taken in and out of some form of interface with a mobile phone, a camera, a laptop, or desktop PC, or a separate memory card reader. The number of different devices they have to be able to interact with is in the thousands.It is not too surprisingly, then that sometimes the state of the file system on the memory card can get damaged.
