nokia n97 1st Impressions

I am currently trialing the Nokia n97 sent to me from WOM WORLD.

The N97 as a whole is very nice device, I am pleasantly surprised by the speed, and sensitivity of the touch screen. I like the active widgets on the home screen and the build Quality of the device is superb. I have not experienced the buggy issues some have mentioned and happy with battery life so far.

Please keep checking back for a full N97 review and below are some more pics of the device.

Streaming Live TV from your Mobile Device

You probably remember my post last year about Streaming Live TV from your mobile device. I gave a good example on how to watch streaming Live TV through the skyfire browser.

Now this one is different and does not need a web browser to stream live TV video.

All you need is your S60 Real Player application or the Latest Core Player that supports RTSP, and of course RSTP sites.

Here is the procedure:

-Open notepad on PC.
-Copy the specific code/link.
-Then save as .sdp
-Transfer it to your mobile.

Here are some codes/links I found around the web:

Cartoon Network: rtsp://202.146.92.42/CNT_LIVE.SDP (save as CNT_LIVE.sdp)

MTV: rtsp://202.146.92.42/MTV_LIVE.SDP (save as MTV_LIVE.sdp)

CNN: rtsp://202.146.92.42/CNN_LIVE.SDP (save as CNN_LIVE.sdp)

Discovery Channel: rtsp://202.146.92.42/Discovery_LIVE.SDP (save as Discovery_LIVE.sdp)

I have tested these channels on my Nokia N85 and they work flawlessly. I also tested them on my PC using the latest Real Player, they work great but a little grainy as I think they were intended for mobile viewing.

DISCLAIMER: Make sure you have a higher or unlimited data plan. We are not responsible for high/additional charges. If your phone has WLAN, Preferably use it to avoid charges for Streaming data.

To finish up... Here is a video demo that I created..
