Notes on Lumia

My opinion on the Lumia is very positive, WP is easy to learn and operate, even with one hand. I guess the bigger screen of the Lumia 900 will be and advantage over the 800, but that is a matter of opinion and money of course.

The small SMS text although ok for most people can be copied and pasted into for example Notes of Mobile Office. Mobile office has a pinch operated zoom function. The lack of functionality to send contacts by SMS or email can be corrected by downloading free software, the best seems to be Contact Sender, which creates SM or email messages from contacts. The reason for this can be that Microsoft wants people to start to use their Cloud services, where all user data could be stored “safely”. But still one needs a fast and easy way to send contact details to a colleague or friend “on the move”.

Taking panorama images is another issue I am working on, there was great software for both Symbian and Maemo platforms, but at the moment I have not found any useful App to do this.
