Full speed Youtube? Nice. I just hope Nokia manage to get that working on the N810.

The stylus is a bad idea, it should be 100% finger friendly with no need to use a stylus at all.

Here's the news story and a video from the press conference:

What interests me the most is the concept of tactile feedback, you'll be able to feel something when you tap the screen. Not sure how they'll do this one.
Note how the video includes the phone running YouTube at full frame rate through the browser.
Touchscreen support in S60 isn't new, it's been buried away in the specifications for over a year now, but no S60 manufacturer has actually used this feature until now.
Motion/orientation sensors in S60 aren't new either, the Nokia 5500 smartphone (released in 2006) has a built-in accelerometer which tells the phone which way up it is. However, this is the first time that S60 would use the accelerometer in the actual interface rather than just in applications.
The 770 Internet Tablet was in fact based on the touchscreen UI (a variation of S60 called S90) of the 7700 and 7710 cell phones circa 2003. That's where "770" came from. We've gone full circle. I am thankful for the iphone because it's prompted Nokia to return touchscreen phones to their lineup after a multi-year hiatus. I've posted more about this previously. (I think in one of the E90 threads)

I agree!!
Konttori might be blowing his own horn here, but his program does make
YouTube playback with a full screen and no stutters. Yeah, yeah, a couple of extra clicks and you do have to wait a few seconds while the video starts to download through his program, but hey, it does work very well.

Ì should probably make it a separate application asap and put it to garage. Not enough people use it yet, I think. It would be great if someone added new sources for the uktube (as in code to add other video sites to be compatible with it).
