Nokia Aplication review – Hour Power

Name: hourpower

Description: talking clock

Summary: If you all don’t know the n96 has a built in talking clock all you have to do is hold the right menu button and ask you phone “what time is it” and after a few seconds of confirming  it will tell you the time, great. Is that ideal, well no its not. I’m sure many people would love to know the time with out having to wait for confirmation and I’m sure many people don’t want to have to talk to there phone to know the time.  Probably the best talking clock would have to be one that will tell you the time instantly with the touch of a button. So here’s Hour Power its a very simple application that will just tell you the time without any fuss or delay. HourPower uses the text to speech just like the built in one so the voice and language can be changed to whatever you want.

,

Overall: Thinking that this is completely useless is the wrong attitude to have towards it, imagine putting this application as one of your shortcuts one press and you know the time. Also the application doesnt run until you turn it on but once that’s done you will here the time and it will exit. It is also a little more complicated that what I first thought in the sence that the first time you select it will give you options about the time such as turning it into a 24/12 hour clock but after that any time you select the application it will just tell you the time.

HourPower is a free application and is very small so there’s no harm in trying

you can download it free here

And if you have any questions about HourPower feel free to comment in the forum.

Nokia N96 8GB leaked on advert?

It seems that either Nokia can’t wait for the N96, or that in fact leaked a N96 8GB, which I doubt. As you see in the image, it’s a competition for the N95 8GB, so most probably someone in Nokia’s marketing team had a typo of 6 instead of 5.

Teo from Symbian-Freak made a joke out of it, and he could have had people believing it!
