Publisher's description
From Cibenix :Active Desk is the ideal solution to personalise and customise your Nokia Series 60 smartphone. The application allows you to fully customise the display - including choosing wallpapers ("skins"), text colours, and operator logos. Active Desk provides five information and feature rich, customisable views of the key information stored on your Nokia phone, including calendar entries, to-dos and messages. The combination of customisation and personalisation makes Active Desk the essential add-on for the Nokia Series 60 phone. Active Desk has received Nokia OK certification. Active Desk is now available in English, US English, Italian, German, Finnish, French, Portuguese, Spanish, Norwegian and Dutch. Language packs can be downloaded for free from http://www.cibenix.com.Active Desk and the Nokia Series 60 take personalisation to a new level. Capture the moment with the built-in camera, and immediately use the images as a wallpaper in Active Desk. A different wallpaper can be set for each of the 5 views provided by the application, increasing the level of personalisation possible. You can even configure Active Desk to play a sound file during startup of your Nokia Series 60 phone. Cibenix have also released themes (sets of five background images and fonts) available for FREE download on our website http://www.cibenix.com.Active Desk is fully integrated with the Nokia Series 60, and acts as a third "home" application. After the installation of Active Desk, the Menu keywill switch between Active Desk, the Phone application, and the Menu application. You can also set Active Desk to toggle only between Active Desk and the Menu application. This effectively keeps all your key information and primary functionality one key press away. Version 1.75 introduces a keypad lock on the home page of Active Desk, so that you no longer need to toggle to the phone page to lock your Nokia Series 60 phoneTask SwitcherActive Desk introduces an enhanced task switcher to the Nokia Series 60 phone. The utility is invoked by pressing and holding the Menu key, and displays a list of the applications currently running on the phone. The Nokia Task Switcher can also be used.In addition to the ability to switch between running applications, the Active Desk Task Switcher provides the following features: A report of the total free memory (RAM) available on the device.

The view also allows you to create new messages (MMS, SMS or e-mail), new agenda entries (meetings, day memos, anniversaries and to-dos) and initiate phone calls.Active Desk allows you to configure the right soft command key available in the view. You can configure this button to launch any application installed on the device.The selection of applications to start automatically at device reset and the selection of the sound file to play at device startup is done through this view. You can now also receive your missed calls and messages through a pop-up into Active Desk. You can lock the phone keypad of your Nokia Series 60 in the same way as by using the phone application itself i.e. by selecting 'Options' followed by the * key to lock and unlock the keypad.Calendar ViewThis view presents a consolidated view of the upcoming calendar events (meetings, day memos, and anniversaries) in a clear easy-to-use view. The number of days presented in the view is configurable. You can also create, view, edit, and delete calendar entries directly from Active Desk.To-do ViewThe Active Desk to-do functionality improves greatly on the very basic in-built to-do application that is pre-packaged with the Nokia Series 60. Active Desk provides support for to-do lists, with the ability to filter the view by to-do list, "done" status, and due date. To-dos can also be sorted by a number of parameters including due date and priority.Active Desk also provides a purging feature, where you can delete all "done" to-dos through a single command.Messages ViewThe Messages view provides a summary view of the state of the messaging inbox, e-mail accounts and other key messaging folders which you can also enter directly from the messages view. Message counts are reported by message type with new messages emphasised.New messages can also be created through the Messages view.
