@Dogmann:
ajack said the following in the first post:
"We only decided to announce this after Symbian and UIQ informed us that we can now get signed applications for free for freeware applications."
I.E. The autostart thingie will probably not be a problem.

This signature is (probably) brought to you with the help of HTTP.

@Vlammetje

Don't waste your time as it will most definitely not work a if it did everyone would be running it already and Ajack and Droll wouldn't be putting so much effort into developing it for UIQ3 would they? UIQ3 is not the same as UIQ2 and no software that worked on UIQ2 will work on UIQ3 and that sadly is a fact.

Any news on the Sman for UIQ3? I assume now with the new firmware some of the most serious bugs with the menus reappearing/disappearing have been fixed...i miss having this app on my P990 phone!

I thought Sman for UIQ3 was already out at version 1.10...

Or am I wrong ?

I really don't get it, why do symbian and SE seem to work against the development of software supporting their OWN platform?

I have a hard time seeing how they gain from it? A great help on the way for SE and their uiq3 devices would be to encourage software developers and not the contrary, which seems to be the current situation.

Sure, getting an app signed should not be taken entirely lightweight, but making it impossible (or very hard) will only help their competitors to gain market share with broader and more software.

Other than short-sightedness, the only reason I could think of is extreme security. The joke is that now, even trojan and other malware makers have to get their apps signed before these could be activated.

I am sure that is precisely the point to signing. Without signing the apps, malware shouldn't be able to do much at all. I guess this is a double edged sword, to have good security, you need some form of control. And with control, it will definitely brings inconvenience. The ability to draw the line correctly will determine how well this idea will work.

I rather have less and better software, than too much SW and crummy sw.

@all:

If you want to try SMan for UIQ3, please go to http://www.my-symbian.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=271144#271144

To esato moderators, sorry to direct traffic away from your forums, but there are just too many forums for me handle, so for the beta testing, I selected only one.
