• Nokia: Apple Dashboard Widgets on Nokia S60 Phones

  Published: October 10, 2007, 3:05 pm

  Tags: Apple, Cellphones, Dashboard, Nokia, S60, Series 60, Web Runt Ime, Webkit, Widgets

  widgets both use the WebKit browser engine (the same fact that also allowed Nokias to use some of the iPhone webapps), so porting Dashboard widgets over is a pretty straightforward and manual process.
