BitTorrent client on S60?

3rd party S60 applications - May 18th, 2006 - Written by Tommi Vilkamo

Three months ago, as Nokia had just released Python for S60 to open source, I urged casual programmers to:

“…go and show us what you can do with Python!!”

Now, we might have a winner.

Go check out WizBit, a BitTorrent client for S60 phones written in Python. The developer says:

WizBit is a BitTorrent client for Symbian S60 smartphones such as the Nokia 6680, 7610, , N70, N80 or N91. It uses Python, which is a free download.

It is currently not complete. It does not fully work yet and is only suitable for Alpha release.

I am making it for my final year project at Exeter University in the UK.

And:

Unfortunately the code will (probably) not be fully working tomorrow. It should hopefully be done by the presentation on July 7th. Wish me luck.

May the force be with you!! As you know, this kind of stuff will definitely create some noise around the industry…

    Thanks for the link!

    The software is still in development and does not really work yet.

    Hopefully it will be working sometime soon.
