Base (ePlus) UMTS Internet Settings Problem

If you get an error message of 3.0.10:80 in Opera Mini on your Nokia N70 with the german provider Base (meaning you use the ePlus network settings) you will have to go into your setup, then the extended setup via options and remove the proxy server. As long as you have that in there you will not be able to surf with the phone, at least that was the problem for me. Damn automatic settings.

The new Nokia N93

Christian Lindholm posted about the Nokia N93. I would agree with Christian that you can’t call it a phone. It’s a device that does lots of things. First of all it has a good lense, with 3.2 mega pixels, 3x optical zoom and 640×480 30fps video capability. That alone is amazingly cool. It also has WiFi next to 3G, 50MB of internal storage S60 3.0 and costs less than the Nokia N90. Now how cool is that! Congratulations Nokia.

Ormigo Looking for a Qualitizer

To not have the world blow up in our face before we start, we‘d like to solicit the help of a quality assurance specialist for a PHP Platform. This might be as a freelancer or, preferably, as a resident developer (part-time possible) who likes to go beyond simple PHPUnit implementations. You want to think ahead and find new ways to exploit what your head tells you and your fingers allow you to code. You like WebServices and know about the problems they bring, love PHP and enjoy working a team.
The team is small and you will be able to shape the world we live in, contribute back to the open source systems you use and make sure that the core developers can happily code away with a big stick looming over their head that gives them a big NONO once they build something that doesn’t connect well with the rest of the platform.
In general you are bug hunter, but your personal goal is to not have anything to hunt for when they builders go to the woods. While the builders push forward to extend our woods, you make sure that everything stays nice and tidy. As such you do not simply want to test what is there but to build a harness, a system within the system, that facilitates keeping the code performing well. At the same time you know that a certain roughness, a certain fertilization on the soil, is a good thing. Some things will fall from the trees when shook but as they will not hurt anyone for the time being. It’s the trip wires you have to deal with first.
Interested? Contact me a oliver(at)ormigo.com. Looking forward to hearing from you and chatting about how we can make this work for you and build a great product together.

Lars on OpenBC

Great Comfy Sofa show Lars from OpenBC where he gives out a lot of detail about the company, which is now 35 people and that with outsourced IT, at least partly for all I know. Here are a few numbers from the show. 70% of the users of OpenBC have been active in the last 30 days and sometimes 17.000 are online at the same time. They will also add taging and more RSS feeds like visits to your profile and now (and I requested this for some time!) a feed about company changes within your contacts! Then comes the cash part though. LinkedIn seems to be doing 10 million USD this year with their 5 million users but OpenBC with their over a million seems to be doing over 10 million (USD or EUR, not sure) too! That is a heavy number! Again congratulations for a great service.
