PDF creation on Eseries phones with PDFPrinter

pdfprinterNokia’s Eseries phones are aimed at people who need to be able to do actual work on their mobiles - in particular the E61i and E90 with their QWERTY keyboards make phone-based word processing a feasible option.

Although Eseries phones are able to talk to several brands of printer via Bluetooth, IrDA and wifi when you are actually out and about with your phone its unlikely you will have a handy LaserJet 9000 in the boot of your car. What, then, to do with your freshly-typed masterpiece?

PDFPrinter is an aptly named S60 3rd Edition app that will act as a virtual printer for your Eseries device, converting any document your try to print into an Adobe PDF file.

Only the Eseries handsets offer the necessary printing components to enable this app to work, but the good news is that PDFPrinter will allow you to ‘print’ PDFs from almost any other app on your phone. The app will also compress your document and can keep it safe using up to 128-bit encryption.

PDFPrinter is available here and costs a measly 25 Euros.

vsymbianroadmapsmall.jpgVodafone’s 2007-2008 Symbian roadmap has been leaked and while we already know about the 2007 releases, more interesting is the two new Nokia handsets in Vodafone’s plans.

has show two new Nokia devices – the Liam and the Dora, scheduled for launch in Q2 this year. Both have built-in Wi-Fi, GPS and HSDPA and 3.2-megapixel cameras. But they do have differences…

The Liam is a QWERTY device with a 2.4-inch screen and is smaller and slimmer than the Nokia E61, which it’s going to replace. Meanwhile the slider Dora succeeds the Nokia E65, with a 2.4-inch screen and quad-band connectivity.

The devices sound (and look) pretty interesting but really, the names! Please Vodafone or Nokia, sort them out before you release these handsets – who’d want a handset called a ‘Dora’?
