Nokia Updates Share Online For S60v3 FP2 Devices

The Nokia Beta Labs has launched an updated Share Online, v4.0 today. Thanks to some technical features, this new version is only compatible with S60v3 FP2 devices, and is even limited to only the N96, 6210 Navigator, 6220 Classic, and 5320 XpressMusic, at least for now. Versions for the N78, N79, and N85 are apparently in the works, but there’s no mention of the 6650 or other S60v3 FP2 devices being supported.
This new version of Share Online brings several new features, including a redesigned Active Standby plugin that allows the user to disable it, if they wish. It will also show the current upload progress on your home screen, which is nice.

Share Online v4.0 also allows you to set it to upload with WiFi only, and the application will queue your uploads until it’s in range of a known hotspot. You can also now have multiple uploads in queue at once, which is a really nice feature, and something I complained about earlier.

If you own the N96, 6210 Navigator, 6220 Classic, or 5320 XpressMusic, you can download the new version here. If you have another S60v3 FP2 phone, you’ll need to wait a bit for the correct version. Installing the wrong version can hose your Gallery application.

Mapsters Game Offers Free 6210 Navigator

The Mapsters is one of Nokia’s various marketing creations, designed to be appealing and offer an interesting way to learn about a specific product, in this case, Nokia Maps. They’re a dinosaur, a monster, and a robot that show you around Nokia Maps. Aside from the exploration aspect, they’ve also got a competition up and running over at the Mapster’s site, with the grand prize being a free Nokia 6210 Navigator.
The game is rather simple - you’ve got a simple map of the world, and a city will pop up along the bottom of the game area. Your goal is to click on the map as quick as possible, as close to where that city is actually located. Don’t be fooled, it sounds rather simple, but it’s alot harder than you’d think. You get points based on how quickly you click, as well as how close to the correct position you are.

My record is 135k, though that’s nowhere near the 268k that others have posted, so you’ll have to be pretty nimble to have a standing in this little competition. You can play here, just click on ‘Competition’ at the top of the site.
