Snappy is a camera application for your iPhone that launches and is ready to take pictures in one second, without having to exit your currently running application. It is also accessible directly from the lock screen. Simply tap and hold the status bar (the bar at the top of the screen with AT&T logo, signal bars, battery, etc) to launch and you are immediately ready to take pictures; compare that to the five to six seconds it takes to exit a running application and launch the native camera app. Snappy is available for $1.99 in the Cydia app store.
The guys at PhoneArena has finally published their review of the Sony Ericsson Aino. The Sony Ericsson Aino is an touchscreen phone and its key points are Remote Play with PLAYSTATION 3 and the PlayTV service support. It also sports an 8-megapixel camera, 3″ touchscreen with 16 mln colors and a resolution of 240×432 pixels. In addition, Sony Ericsson Aino has Wi-Fi, A-GPS, 3G support and Stereo Bluetooth. Head over to this page to read the review.
Similarly to the Sony Ericsson Satio, the Aino rolls out too late to make a difference. If the handset had been released at the beginning of the year, it could have stood a chance against the multimedia cell phones. The market has, however, developed really fast and the Sony Ericsson Aino looks obsolete at the end of 2009.
