Okay, provided that you’ve seen an appropriate SMS for your honey, for your relatives and friends. What is the best way to send them easier? If I wasn’t mistaken, I’ve been using this mobile application for over a year on my S60 mobile phone. It made sending group SMS hassle-free, simple to use and not time consuming.
NaSMS is a mobile application that allows you to send group SMS easier. The nice thing with this application… while the group SMS is still sending (using NaSMS), you can still send and receive SMS on your built-in messaging without interruption. They’ve released the latest Symbian9 S60 3rd edition version 1.5 in sisx format last February 9, 2008. I’m still using the older version 1.3 since it is the version compatible on my 6630.

Globe UNLITXT40 And UNLITXT80 ARE BACK
I’m supposed to post this yesterday but I’m waiting for my site to become stable because of the migration, sorry for the delay. A mobile co-blogger informed me 2 days ago about the resume of UNLITXT and I immediately called the Globe hotline.
Good news: UNLITXT40 and UNLITXT80 are back. Due to insistent public demand, Globe Telecoms resumed the UNLITXT or unlimited SMS service started last January 9, 2008. UNLITXT40 is unlimited SMS for 48 hours or 2 days while UNLITXT80 is good for 5 days.

Goodbye, Globe UNLITXT
December is the busiest month in the Philippines. Communicating with our loved ones during Christmas season is common since almost all Filipinos had mobile phones. Many Filipinos were using the UNLITXT service because it was easy on the budget. The service was available for prepaid subscribers and avail it for as low as php20 a day, php40 for 2 days and php80 for 5 days.
As far as I remember, it was used to be php15 a day, php25 for 2 days and 50 for 5 days last year. The said telecoms had increased their rate without notice to prepaid subscribers last year. Many subscribers complained to National Telecommunication Commission for the said telecoms actions, changing their rates without notice to subscribers. Many had petitioned to rollback their rates. So bad that whatever petition we made, nothing happened. They’ve even released TV and print advertisement to announced that UNLIMITXT (the old name service) announcing that UNLITXT service will remain for life? for good.
What happened now to their promise? Nothing happened to the petition because all along we thought the service will remain for good. The Globe Telecoms is a big fish in the telecommunication business, they can do whatever they want, whenever they want. Did they forgot the word “consideration”… considering it is Christmas season.
I was on my way to Christmas party of my clanmates last Saturday (my mobile co-bloggers) and tried registering for the service. And I’ve received this:
Sorry the UNLITXT ALL DAY txt promo ended. Try SULITXT 15! P15 for 100 Globe-to-Globe txts. Txt SULITXT 15 to 2868. DTI #3634’07.TilJan31. Valid for 1 day. Also for P15 enjoy Unlitxt Day txting bet. 8am-4:59PM for P15 by texting UNLITXTD15 to 2870.DTI#4899’07.Til Jan14. Both services require MinP1balance to register. Sulitxt 15 open to pre-paid subscribers only while Unlitxt Day is open to both pre and post-paid subs.
My clanmates were thinking of buying another competitor’s prepaid sim. We’re not happy with them anymore. The said company had a very good timing of doing this.
UPDATE 12.20.07: Globe Telecoms brought back UNLITXT20. The promo is until January 20 next year. My friend ito54joni confirmed this to me.
Reading txt file on Notes of your symbian phone?
Someone asked me what mobile ebook application can he used for txt format. According to him he’s lucky enough finding and downloading an eBook on his phone but got confused on how to read the file on his phone. He said, he read the file using “notes” on his phone.
Notes is the default viewer for txt files, I salute him for his eagerness to read that eBook. Imagine, if you use “notes”, special characters can’t be read and you have to search for last page you’ve read if you’ve stop. Big deal indeed especially if the file is an eBook.
I suggested him to use HandyBook by epocware, it supports palm doc (pdb) and txt format files. Upon installation, the application will asked you what language you will be using between Greek, Spanish, Slovenian, French, Polish, Swedish, Hungarian, Norwegian, Czech, Finnish, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, Italian, German or English.
In Handybook application, you can choose the font size from small to large. There’s no need to make a folder for txt files because it will detect all your txt and pdb files on your phone. In fact, this is another alternative if you don’t want to convert your txt files that are previously SMS. And just for the record, txt files is the smallest in size of all eBook formats. Although you cannot change the font color and background color, its nice to have this application to read your txt files easily.

Look Ma, My SMS is now an eBook!
This mobile ebook article is primarily for the new generation of bookworms who doesn’t have computer or just want to have their txt file converted wherever, whenever they want even if they’re a hundred miles away from they’re desktop. I’m a big fan of this eBook Maker application, can’t even decide on what mobile phone should I buy next because it might not be compatible. I hope the developers could make a higher version that would work on other latest symbian phones nowadays. And since there are none, I’m still having a second thought on what latest phone should I buy or find another mobile application that works the same function.
eBook Maker is a free application for symbian phones. Special messages such as quotes or other important messages can be converted into an eBook. I frequently do this to back up important messages. There are other computer software available online but I’m concentrating more on mobile application as much as it can be.
There are ways to do this.
*Here’s the first option, a comprehensive step by step how to convert your messages into an eBook on your phone.
- On your mobile, open the message you want to convert, click option then choose forward
- Highlight the message then copy. Use the pen key and cursor to highlight the text, option > copy the message.
- Go to main menu and click notes. Open a new note then paste the message. Copy other messages if you want and make necessary editing.
- Send the note via Multimedia message, click close and choose “Saved to Draft”.
- Open FExplorer 1.17, go to the main directory and click inbox folder. Lower version of FExplorer doesn’t have inbox folder so make sure that you have the latest version.
- Locate the .txt file, copy the file and paste it to another folder. option > edit > copy > and paste ito to other folder. Close all unnecessary application especially if you have lower symbian phone model.
- Open eBook Maker application > option > make book > locate the folder where you’ve pasted it, then click
- It will ask you now where do you want the converted eBook to be saved, choose Library.
- After conversion, eBook Maker will ask “Delete source file?”… choose yes or no. Even if you choose yes, you still have a copy at your notes, thats if you have plans of future editing.
Open eBook, the file should be in the Library. From the FExplorer or any third party file manager, the exact location of your eBook is E:\System\Apps\SW_Book\Library. Converted eBook filename can be change using FExplorer or any third party file manager.
**If you have other ebook file in txt format and want it converted to Aportis (prc), skip steps 1 to 6.
***The easiest way is to use Message Storer v1.02 application. Converting SMS/MMS file to txt format is as easy as ABC with this mobile application.
