On last Monday, Antony Pranata announced in his blog a new great freeware utility for S60 3rd Edition (Nokia 3250, N71, N80, N91, E60, E61, E70, etc.):

Today I would like to announce my freeware to the community of S60, i.e. Screenshot 2.0 for Symbian OS (S60 3rd Edition). The software allows you to capture screenshot for your phones and then transfer it to the PC. It is a very simple application, but many of us need it for various purposes.

Thank you Antony - you got yourself a loyal user!

I have read about the troubles you have faced during the Symbian Signing process. I sincerely hope that the signing gets easier in the near future.

Antony asks:

Hi Phil (and also for other S60 team), do you know why S60 does not include screenshot capturing feature in the platform? I think it is a feature that many users need. I am just curious…

Beats me. Maybe to give an opportunity to people like you to show their skills. Or maybe because 99% of users are not product reviewers, online journalists, developers, etc. and don’t really want yet-another-preinstalled-application-cluttering-their-application-grid.

    I think it’s nowhere, and replaced by the “mail” button.
