I never would've imagined that I will meet the Octomum while I'm on my evening walk but that's exactly what happened. The pic is not so good as it was dark and raining but if look close enough there the kids are - all eight of them.

E72 internet radio
Yes, somebody asked me if it works and the answer is; yes it does and very well too. For example I drove 20k's the other day and the connection dropped once and came back in 2 minutes. Great feature!

Installed Skype on E72
Today I installed Skype on my E72 and it appears to be working fine. I have read some posts about the system crashing after installing Skype. However, I have not experienced any problems myself. Here is the link for download: http://www.skype.com/intl/en/get-skype/on-your-mobile/download/

Sports Tracker
I’m happy to inform that Sports Tracker works also on E72 despite the device not being listed as compatible. I installed the version for N96 as the OS is the same: http://sportstracker.nokia.com/nts/main/download.do
Update:
Well, it turns out that Nokia is closing down its sportstracker site and a new team is taking over. Here you can also find the latest version of the software: http://www.sports-tracker.com
"After two and a half years of operation, the Nokia Sports Tracker beta service will close as of June 30, 2010. Thanks to all of you exercise enthusiasts who used the service and contributed valuable feedback to its improvement.
We want you to stay active. You can keep tracking workouts through a new, non-Nokia service provided by Sports Tracking Technologies available for free in the Ovi Store. The new service is open for registrations at sports-tracker.com, and you'll even be able import your workout history from Nokia Sports Tracker until August 31, 2010.
Why is Nokia ramping down Nokia Sports Tracker beta?
Nokia Sports Tracker beta was an experimental, specialized vertical service letting people collect, and share their physical activities and routes using their mobile devices. Nokia's strategy moving forward is to continue to deliver on the potential of this space, but through broader horizontal offerings that take advantage of our growing Ovi platform of services.
Thank you for using Sports Tracker beta. Stay tuned for more to come from Ovi."
E72 - no geo tagging???
The manual says that I should find geo tagging option under the camera settings menu. However, this option is nowhere to be found. I loaded all the latest updates including the firmware. Well, after some snooping around I managed to find a geo tagging software from Nokia betalab site: http://betalabs.nokia.com/apps/location-tagger/download_and_installation
Despite some comments on the forum it appears to work perfectly on my machine. Recommended!

Karina Hollekim back on skis! - Never Stop Exploring
By The North Face
The North Face® Global Athlete Karina Hollekim back on skis
Three and a half years after her near death accident, B.A.S.E jumper and free skiing legend Karina Hollekim returns to the slopes!
The North Face®, the world’s premier supplier of authentic, innovative and technically advanced outdoor apparel, equipment and footwear, is proud to announce that, The North Face® Global Athlete Karina Hollekim, is come back to ski!In August 2006, during a demonstration skydive in Switzerland, Karina Hollekim’s chute failed to open. She hit the ground at over 100 km/hour. The force of impact broke her right femur in four places and splintered her left leg into 21 open fractures. She lost over three litres of blood in 45 minutes. But, she did not die.
The crash spared her spine and head, and she was told she would never walk again. It was tough to wake up everyday without the body that had let her live her dreams. But those dreams had taught her life is about challenges; that the only limits to what she could achieve were in her own head and mind. Step by step, Karina fought her battles, and slowly she began to walk again.
And now, almost three and a half years after that fateful day and over 15 painful surgeries later, Karina has hit the slopes once again. A simple run, but full of emotion and meaning. "Coming back to the slopes and to the mountains was almost too good to be true!" exclaimed Karina. "I´ve dreamt about this everyday for 3,5 years now, I´ve gone through it in my mind, how it would feel and what it would be like, but this is better than I could ever imagine. It feels unreal! I think I´m the happiest kid on the slope today, I just can´t stop smiling! And the best thing is that this is just the beginning... "
Karina embodies the philosophy behind The North Face - to ‘never stop exploring’. This is how she lives her life. She became renowned worldwide as a courageous and skilful exponent of extreme sport. As an exceptional athlete, she inspired others. Her strength and determination to recover from near-death are perhaps even more inspirational.
Commented Keith Byrne, Strategic Marketing Manager for The North Face® EMEA: "The North Face has a unique and special relationship with our athletes as their lives are an inspiration to every single one of us working within the company. Karina and the experiences she has brought us have put so many things into perspective but most of all they have inspired all of us to live a full life. Respect to Karina".
Go Karina!
