Nokia N86 Turns Out To Have A Pretty Smart Kickstand
While the Nokia N86 is not the most bodacious device on the block, apart from putting an 8 MP camera on it, Nokia left the set with pretty much the usual N-series stuff. The N86 gets a nod of approval, yes, but nothing more. Until now that is. Seems like everybody’s favorite Symbian Guru has discovered some interesting stuff about the N86. On a close inspection of the N86 simulator, they discovered that the handset’s kickstand is more than just a tiny swiveling piece of plastic. There seems to be a little sensor somewhere beneath the kickstand allows the N86 to open an application each time it’s flipped open. How cool is that! Also, it seems that any app on the phone can be set to be the kickstand-triggered app. Sweet! A few more tricks like this, and we may give the N86 the ‘N-Series of the year’ award. (We’re generous like that)
