Internet Radio Player
A new Internet radio player, Internet Radio Player, has been released by Giovanni Grammatico. The player features more in-depth playback and management features than Nokia's built-in media player (or its open source re-implementation), so internet radio buffs may be interested. Still only available from Extras-devel, potential testers should self-select for bravery and skill.
Kall - kill calls on a timer
Iktwo Salazar has put together an application to make time-limited phone calls: Kall. The application allows users to specify the call duration in seconds and will hang up at the end of the timer. Iktwo decribes his motivation: Here in my country you can make a call to selected numbers. if call.lenght() < 5 min it's free, that's how you could use it, it's useful, maybe it's not for you.. but if you want to "control" the length of your calls this is for you.. Currently available only from Extras-devel, care should be taken before installing.
Accelerometer mouse control
Talk user "skyhooler" has put together a Python script which allows users to control a Mac OS X machine's mouse using the N900's accelerometers: I got inspired by the mouse in my friend's Wii and decided to write a program to allow me to do the same with my N900. Currently I only have a OSX version of the script, because I won't have access to a Linux or Windows computer until this evening and there doesn't seem to be any cross-platform way to move the mouse pointer. As the script is provided simply as a zip file, care should probably be taken in its handling.
