I am now at Korea and this is my first time traveling to the oversea. Before I fly, I have installed Handy Clock in my N73ME to make me easier to know the time differences between my country and Korea. I also can see other 3 countries world time by using Handy Clock.

I have tested many alarm software for my Nokia N73ME. Before this I used Y-Alarm. Although it did what it should do, but I don’t like the interface and the ugly background image.
NiceAlarm - Main interface
NiceAlarm is the best alarm software so far. I am using it right now and don’t see any problem at the moment. This software has nice interface with its beautiful icon for each alarm you have set.

-
Message Preview Option for displaying the last received message without actually opening it
-
Inbox Backup tool for exporting all messages to file
-

I have tried it on my N73ME. Yeah, it is true that this software can make your phone read your message but if the message is not written in English, you will hear wierd speech. It is really funny and you will not understand a thing from what it saying. Try it and let me know if this application is useful for you.
My dad was always having this problem. His N70 phone was always accidently called a recent call number because he forgot to lock his keypad. I told him to enable the autolock function which comes with the device but he don’t like that function very much because everytime when he wanted to unlock the keypad, he needs to enter the password. That is wasting time, he said.
So I looked for a software that can autolock his phone but no need to enter password when to unlock it. Fortunately, I found the software and the best part is, it is freeware. Cool isn’t it?

My friend ask me how I took screenshots from my Nokia N73 ME and posted them to my website. I told him that I did some magics and poof!, suddenly my N73ME took the screenshots for me. Hahaha. It was a joke.
I actually use an application called Screenshot to take the screenshot for my N73ME. Screenshot is free. You can download it from here and install it like you install other software to your phone.
I wish I could publish the Screenshot interface and the settings here, but my friend had borrowed my Nokia cable. So I couldn’t transfer the screenshots taken to my PC.
Screenshot can save the images in JPEG, PNG, BMP or MBM format. I don’t have any idea what MBM really is. I am so lazy to find out. But the quality image taken using Screenshot is really good. Really sharp. You can see the quality of the images taken from my previous posts.
