Beautiful Connections Mobile Application Video Demo: Putting Life on Your Text Messages

I received an email from womworld last Saturday about the Beautiful Connections campaign for the E71 and a mobile application (E71 BC) was attached for me to enjoy. I was one of the very few who got the said application a full "48 hours" before it is made available to the public on the campaign site.

The application is simple to use, and its purpose is to spice up your text messages and makes for a beautiful connection. It allows the user to input a maximum of 40 characters of text, then it presents a visualization of that text with random and colorful waves, lines and dots. The fun part is to watch how these lines and waves slowly grow all through out the screen during the presentation. Here's a video demo (may not be visible in some RSS readers):

I like it. The application easily put a smile on my face that saturday morning.The lesser number of characters inputted, the cleaner the presentation becomes. The spiced-up message can be sent via mms through the application itself. It can also be saved as a picture (.png) file. Here are a few samples I made:

It's a java application, specially created for the E71. I tried and it does not work well on a Nokia N82. It had problems on screen orientation and only numbers are accepted as input.

Download here.

UPDATE: The application is now available on the Beautiful Connections site. The site has also been renovated which now features webcam and mic visualizer. Head over to the site to learn more about the campaign.

What's next?

They take a break from destroying the E71's firmware with horribly bad updates to build something this useless? Great job Nokia, you never cease to embarrass.

It works on my E71x too.

Shame most, if not all of the comments above are bad ones, it is what it is, as they say, it does what it says on the tin!
