Is the OVI Store a complete disaster? Did Nokia rushed to release the OVI store and ignored to check/test their system before launching the site? What do you think about the new OVI store? Check out these forum discussions and let us know:
I must agree with most of our forum members, Nokia / OVI really need to get their stuff together and release some good and free applications. Nokia said that OVI store would have over 20.000 apps/files when launched, well 99.99% of those files are just crappy wallpapers and ringtones! i think ill stick to our download section at the forum for now
Here are 3 posts from our forum members

After checking it out further i must say it´s a complete disaster!!!
1. The Site lags as hell. Also with enourmos traffic, thats quite poor!
2. The Navigation sucks!
3. The Apps are either old and known already, or complete nonsense.
4. 20.000 objects? No wonder with a feeled 19.000 Hannah Montana crap!
5. Mostly for free? A hilarious amount of 4 free Games, and also they are shit compared to other free games.
6. The Categories and the explanations of the objects are a bad joke!
All in all a complete disappointment!!!
In less than 5 months, dailymobile.se forums grew up to tens of thousands of members, thank to all you guys.

nUnLock for the Nokia 5800 is a simulation of the iphone lock screen, you need to first unlock your 5800 with the unlock key! When the iphone lock screen pops up, you can slide the screen to “unlock” the phone, also you can still use the Green, Menu, Red keys of your 5800. nUnLock also supports all S60 3rd phones (like N95, N96 etc) without touch screen, you can just press the right key to simulate the slide!
For more info about the app (and other freeware apps), head over to ThinkChange website.

Here are some fresh new pictures of the Blackberry Storm 2 (photos by Engadget). BlackBerry Storm 2 is the second generation BlackBerry with a touch-sensitive screen, successor of the highly-anticipated Storm. The keys on the front are now touch-sensitive as well, and the screen no longer uses the SurePress technology, which made the display of the first Storm uncomfortable to use. The Storm 2 also adds Wi-Fi, but the other features are similar and include a 3.2-megapixel camera, GPS and a full HTML browser.
