I am onto my 4th consecutive Nokia S60 handset now (6680, E90, 6121 classic, E71) and one reason for my loyalty is the stable of everyday apps I am familiar with the operation of. Here, for all to see, is a list of those very apps, all of which can be obtained free of charge, legally (except WinLive for non E/N series handsets).
- Calcium - calculator by mtvoid
- Mobile GMaps - uses the Google map and satellite image tiles with a slight hack and many other maps "out of the box". Allows automatic upload of your position to a public or private map online.
- Google Maps for Mobile - if you don't have a GPS it will use the network to approximate your location. Also allows you to enter start and end address and have it show you the route (no voice directions though)
- Mirggi - S60 native IRC client, under constant development and a very nice app.
- Windows Live Messenger client, found in the "Download" menu on E and N series handsets or here for other handsets
- Qik - a live video streaming app that is still in Beta but works pretty well already
Feel free to comment below with any must-haves that I have missed, thanks!
