KEYnetik Rock-n-Scroll

Rock N Scroll for S60 Nokia phones is a complete package of well thought creatives and it takes the game to a whole new level for Nokia 3rd edition series 60 phones, period! Rock N Scroll actually was a concept first developed for the bluetooth based gestures for Pocket PC phones as a mouse to any Mac Os X laptops. However, with the increasing trend of the Nokia symbian accelerometers and other motion based platforms it has hit evolution!! Rock N Scroll will let you control every aspect of your phone navigation thoroughly. While some predicted that it will be a complete copycat of the NokMote but believe that this is by far the absolute best accelerometer application ever!

Rock N Scroll differentiates itself from all other accelerometer applications including the Hi ‘N’ Bye by its jam packed features. While most of the accelerometer focused mobile softwares does something very simple and straightforward in nature (like Shakelock locks the keypad, RotateMe rotates your screen from landscape to portrait etc) Rock N Scroll have a far fetched impact on the phone because it is the navigation we are talking about, it is the way you select item we are talking about. Just think about it, how convenient your navigation lets you operate will decide how much multitasking you will be able to do with the free hands. Rock n Scroll is surely going to change the way you operate.

Rock N Scroll works in gaming mode and flick mode. The gaming mode is the landscape mode through which you will be able to navigate in one way (through tilting the phone slightly) while the flick mode (vertical or portrait) will let you navigate and function differently (specifically do specific clickthroughs or perform a twist back). What function they actually perform can be completely customized through a nice detailed compass on an uniform map. You can set the speed of the wrist flick by which you will basically tell the symbian application how much force or acceleration it will set to determine a particular action. In the same way, through the gaming mode you can define the speed of the scrolling when the phone is tilted backward and forward. This really will come very handy if you have a big memory card and there are tons of pictures or songs in the gallery or music library. These two modes together completes the entire application functionality and none will really be this much special without the other.

For both the modes you can also set the Push and Pull functionality (and I don’t mean Push or Pull SMS) that determines the action it will perform. You can choose to receive calls or make calls, you can decide to launch the mobile based Premier Office Suite or Quick Office, you can even choose to go silent by changing the profile when Push it. However, I personally felt that the current default functionality are the best ones as it results itself to come full circle so that this single application can take care every bit of navigation and basic functionality.

Last but certainly not the least is the ability for you to learn through the Notifications bubble which you can choose to be turned on or leave it as it is. will tell you to keep it activated at all times. It shows you if you are in a dead zone or if your phone is slanted at a 90 degree, (thus no tilt, simple physics!). However, it might be get annoying because it will notify you whenever you change the screen orientation of the Nokia phone. Totally up to you!

Experimenting and finding the perfect combination of actions which suits your daily life is what this application is all about and of course some more. Once again, I honestly feel that if you have any symbian powered 3rd edition Nokia devices with support of accelerometer or motion sensitivity then both these applications are something you really SHOULD CHECK OUT! They are new, they are flashy and they will certainly (according to me) evolve to be the next huge thing that mobile computing will follow and make the standard. All the latest N-Series and E-Series cell phones like N95, N95 8GB, 5800 Xpess Music, E71, E66, N78, N79, N85, 6600 Slide, and N82 should have accelerometer built in and should be able to use this symbian motion sensor application to make your life much easier. Smartphones from other brands with symbian os platform like the Samsung SCH-S310, SonyEricsson W910, 850i etc will also support both these applications smoothly.
