A notepad app linked to a homescreen plugin. So you can quickly write a note, and then have it viewable on the homescreen ... oh, & the homescreen list scrolls forward, so you can see all notes in turn! tongue.gif

Oh, or a homescreen plugin picture dialler! You gat a scrollable list of contacts with pics on the homescreen & can just click one to dial!

I'd pay for any new apps that feature great new homescreen plugins!

Hi!
I would like to see:
- An RDP-client that let's me connect to XP or Terminal Servers remotely, without requiring special services on the server.
I'm thinking some smart navigation features also, like using the keypad to navigate from section to section of the screen in an 8 way manner, since the server's resolution would be much larger than the phone's. Some zooming/scaling features would also be nice. The joystick will of course control the mouse pointer.

I know VNC and some 3rd party solutions already exists, but IMO using the RDP-protocol is much faster and easier. I know there is already source code available from the Linux RDP-client. I guess it would be possible to port.


- A working C64 emulator. Strange this hasn't already appeared. :wink:

- An app that lets me mount network drives and copy/open files via bluetooth from a server. PocketPC has this..

my 3 most missed apps...

Change the SMS Delivery Report to say the persons name instead of number if you have it in the phonebook (may have already been done??)

You need to convert your numbers to include the international dialing prefix i.e. in the UK replace the first 0 with +44
I presume it's the same with delivery reports never checked tbh :?

How about a setup wizard that runs on the pc and is used to:
1. Set user info.
2. Set up email accounts
3. Set defaults for various storage options (internal or MiniSD) & other system options such as Bluetooth settings etc
4. Install homescreen plugins etc.
5 install various applciations.
etc...
etc...

It would be great to be able to set all these in some sort of wizard then have everything done on the phone.

If a company was buying all it's sales team a bunch of C500s they would have to have their techs, poking about with spvs for ages. This wizard would be worth £ in that situation, how knows Orange may even buy it and offer it as a part of their set up service for new customers or whatever..

Hmm.. I'd love to be able to use my c500 as a webcam. Either via USB or bluetooth. Infrared or GPRS would probably be slow and horrible quality. I wouldn't use it frequently (the reason why I won't buy a "real" one), but it would be fun, especially at first.

Also I'd welcome an infrared remote feature. It seems to be possible on Symbianbased Smartphones (Psiloc's Total irRemote), perhaps it's possible on SPV's too.

What else.. hmm I really can't come up with anything practical... dunno.. something that secretly records whatever is being said nearby to the SD card (unlike the standard app on my c500 which stops recording as soon as I press "home" - well probably to prevent accidental over-recording, but still).

Thats a very good idea!

How about software that could take photos larger than 640x480 (assuming the hardware is not already working at its best) so that you can get good quality 6x4" prints biggrin.gif

P.S. Ive tried having my numbers in the international format and dont see the names in the delivery reports? Can any1 verify that you can get names in the delivery reports?

A small program/hack, which will make the Green led stop blinking by default, and only blik when one has a missed phone call/sms/mms/email.

How about an app that turns your shower on when your alarm goes off then the toaster and kettle on 20 mins l8ter and starts your car 45 mins l8ter.
Ok it might not be today or tomorrow but it will come.
I know there is a car alarm that will start your car but keep it locked till you press the key fob a second time, so its nice and warm (no more sitting shaking for 10 min on the way to work)

On a more serious note how about an app that sorts your speed dials.
E.g I have my speed dials set so if I have to use the menu to get to a program Its the same numbers I press for my speed dial.
1 to 9 is all folders then each folder has 8 programs saves a lot of time than if you have to press 9 for more all the time.
It takes time at first remembering what folder a program is in but once you remember its easy and the speed dial makes it even quicker.
But when I add a new program I have to reset my speed dials.
