Two days ago I asked you on Twitter, ‘If you were able to buy any Nokia device in the market today, what would it be?’. The answer was an overwhelming vote for the N900!
Turns out, that it is contest time here on The Symbian Blog and we are giving you a chance to win not one, not two but 3 Nokia N900’s! If you haven’t have had a chance to play with a N900 yet, I can tell you that it is an amazing device that you will thoroughly enjoy, I bought one the moment I played with my review unit.
[Update – You have until 11:59 PM IST on the 23rd of April to get your entries in.]
Now back to the contest, here is how to enter:
- You need to visit the Ovi Store using this link and download the Hi-N-Bye application.
Once you do that you will have three avenues to win:
- First: Simply tell us what you think of the application – things you like and things you would like to see improved. The top review judged on criteria such as value and merit will be awarded a Nokia N900. Over.
- Second: Share your Ovi Store experience with us along with what you think would make the Ovi Store perfect. Over.
- Third: You need to do nothing for this one. Once you have downloaded the Hi-N-Bye application from the Ovi Store, simply enter your name in the comments section below and at the end of the contest, we will choose one lucky winner based on a random draw.
About Hi-N-Bye:
Hi-N-Bye is a motion controlled accelerometer based application that recognizes hand gestures and eliminates the need of using physical buttons to complete tasks such as answering a call, switching on the loudspeaker, switching between calls and terminating them.
When your phone rings, you can simply look at who is calling and simply put the phone to your ear without pressing a button and the call will be automatically answered. If you are wondering how this works, the following video should help:
Hi-N-Bye is currently 3€ (4$, 2.6£ or 175 INR) at the Ovi Store and has been tested on N82, N95, N96, 5800, N97, N97 mini and the X6, but should work on similar devices as well.

Hi!
Does this app work on other phones?
Looking good. Working great as it should be. NEXT.
Not a bad application. But to be honest, some of the function of the app already been baked into the OS itself. But this app just add more than the usual ones such as flip to silence during calls
And please include me in the N900 giveaway.
N900+ Maemo 5= Pure Awesomeness!
