I&#8217;ve started to test some of the best ones on my own Nokia N95 8GB phone and the ones that qualify, are listed in these series of posts. There&#8217;s been 2 parts previously and I should tell you that some of those softwares and applications have become obsolete and either their functionalities are included in new Firmware release or There&#8217;s been no update of the said applications till date. Before we start with the third part, let me recall the previous lists:</p><p><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">1- Landscape Pro</span> &#8211; Functionality included in new Firmware</p><p><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">2- RotateMe v2.0</span> &#8211; Functionality included in new Firmware<span id="more-160"></span></p><p><strong>3- Handy Taskman 2.0 </strong>- Still Good!</p><p><strong>4- Office Suite 4.5 </strong>- Still Good</p><p><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">5- Agile Messenger</span> &#8211; Obsolete (Recieved minor bugs and application crashes reports)</p><p><strong>6- Salling Clicker &#8211; </strong>Still Good<strong><br /> </strong></p><p><strong>7- ALON MP3 Dictaphone &#8211; </strong>Updated version available<strong><br /> </strong></p><p><span style="text-decoration: line-through;">8- <span class="st_tag internal_tag">Nokia</span> Maps 2 (Beta version)</span><strong> &#8211; </strong>Final Release included in Firmware or available to download from your phone.<strong><br /> </strong></p><p><strong>9- Y-Browser (from Yucca Tools)</strong> &#8211; Still Good<strong><br /> </strong></p><p><strong>10- NiiMee </strong>- Updated Version Available</p><p>And here goes the third list:</p><p><strong>11- Python </strong>: This is a programming language, but even if you don&#8217;t know what that means, to run some applications you would need this, so you may want to install it anyway.</p><p><strong>12- MobiTubia : </strong>With MobiTubia you can get YouTube.com on your mobile phone. Great menu, easy to navigate, you can save clips you like and you can even open FLV files directly if you know the URL.

Well the way is that you install an application which creates a virtual bluetooth gps and sends your GPS data on it, and then, you have to set TOMTOM to recieve data from the virtual GPS!</p><p>More info on this will be available in the next post on this topic. For now, you can find almost everything you need by Googling around.</p><p><strong>14- Yahoo GO :</strong> It&#8217;s one of the most used of my applications. It allows you to check your Yahoo emails very easily and quickly, and allows to send, reply and forward emails too! You get access to a lot of other Yahoo Services from your phone and you can add user made widgets like Facebook Widget and so on&#8230;</p><p>Go here to get more informaion <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.gibni.com/goto/http://mobile.yahoo.com/go"  target="_blank">http://mobile.yahoo.com/go</a></p><p><strong>15- Google Maps : </strong>You can get many of the Google Maps functionallity on your phone with this wonderful application.

I&#8217;ve installed and tested this app, works nice with inbuilt windows bluetooth drivers and has a lot of functions and even the possibility of making your own scripts. For example, I can control the Windows Media Player (mine&#8217;s 11) from the phone, and when listening to music (on the computer) if the phone rings, the application automatically stops the music, decreases system volume and shows a popup windows on the monitor to show that someone&#8217;s calling!! (this can be enabled/disable). There are lots of functionallities. If you wanna get a remote control for your pc (even mac) this is the best for the moment <img src='http://www.gibni.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt="icon wink TOP N95 Applications, Symbian S60 Applications   Part 2" class='wp-smiley' title="TOP N95 Applications, Symbian S60 Applications   Part 2" /></p><p>Get it Here: <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.gibni.com/goto/http://www.salling.com/" >http://www.salling.com/</a> (It works on MAC too!!)</p><p>You may need some plugins and 3rd party scripts, google and search also the forums, but if you don&#8217;t find anything, just leave comments on this post and i&#8217;ll upload some scripts and plugins too.</p><p><strong>7- ALON MP3 Dictaphone</strong></p><p>Here&#8217;s a nice dictaphone app, which can record your calls automatically, record voice (even the radio) in MP3 format and has the ability to increase or decrease the microphone gain! which lets you record even very small sounds <img src='http://www.gibni.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif' alt="icon biggrin TOP N95 Applications, Symbian S60 Applications   Part 2" class='wp-smiley' title="TOP N95 Applications, Symbian S60 Applications   Part 2" /> !</p><p>Get it here: (Trial version) The Full one costs about 30$! <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.gibni.com/goto/http://www.alonsoftware.com/products/dictaphone_s60_3rd.htm" >http://www.alonsoftware.com/products/dictaphone_s60_3rd.htm</a></p><p><strong>8- Nokia Maps 2 (Beta version)</strong></p><p>At last we got something very nice from Nokia for the GPS stuff! They took so long!</p><p>Nokia Maps 2, has got a way better interface and a lot of functionality improvements and precision. Still in the beta (test) version, but there seems to be no stability issues till now (be carefull to install it only on latest firmware which is till date v. 15.0.015</p><p>Get it Here: <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.gibni.com/goto/http://www.nokia.com/betalabs/maps/" >http://www.nokia.com/betalabs/maps/</a> (Still in Beta, use at your own risk)</p><p><strong>9- Y-Browser (from Yucca Tools)</strong></p><p>This is very useful if you got stuff in your inbox and the phone doesn&#8217;t let you move them in the mass memory! that&#8217;s pretty wierd from Nokia to have such a dump bug, but with the help of this app, you can browse all your drives and even see hidden and system files.</p><p>But be very carefull with system files, you don&#8217;t want to &#8220;BRICK&#8221; your phone.</p><p>My advice is that you install the app, and install the &#8216;mailbox&#8217; plugin so you can directly access your &#8216;My Folders&#8217; inside the mailbox, from there you can move the stuff which are stuck.</p><p>Usually Free, Get it Here: <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.gibni.com/goto/http://www.drjukka.com/YBrowser.html" >http://www.drjukka.com/YBrowser.html</a></p><p><strong>10- NiiMee</strong></p><p>This is a very nice application, which uses the accelerometer inside N95 to make it like a Wheel, Mouse and Joystick! I did play Need For Speed Most Wanted with my phone on the PC, using my phone as the Wheel and staying far from the screen, WIRELESSLY over Bluetooth! This software rocks!</p><p>It&#8217;s Usually Available for free download at the author&#8217;s site: <a target="_blank" rel="nofollow" href="http://www.gibni.com/goto/http://www.niime.com/" >http://www.niime.com/</a></p><p>I&#8217;ll Put in the next time, some direct download links and a summary of the best applications.
