Comeks on your Phone and Global Peers
Using Comeks, in 5 minutes I was able to author this on a Nokia N70, including image manipulation, based on a picture that was already there in memory. That’s no mean feat for an application that runs on a phone and relies on a key-pad and 4-way rocker switch as its only means of user input.

ShoZu was our entrant into the Global Peer Awards but it was Toronto’s ComVu that took top honors with their live video broadcasting application. Live video broadcasting from a Mobile! Even working for an operator, I shudder to think of the data costs on that one!
