Continuing Nokia’s recent obsession with widgets, Nokia Beta Labs has released Nokia Text Messenger – an SMS display widget for Windows Vista desktop PCs.
As well as Microsoft’s most up to date OS, NTM requires Nokia PC Suite 6.85 or later in order to make the connection twixt phone and PC.
The widget sits as a window on your desktop or (in a smaller version) in your Sidebar and PC Suite acts as a conduit to pipe it full of fresh incoming SMS goodness.
Messages can be displayed five at a time in the flowting desktop windows with the compact Sidebar version showing three at at time.
As ever, with Beta Labs productions, the clue is in the website name and you should expect the odd bug, but this is a reasonably polished, if limited in funtion, piece of work.
