Python and phones I

If your phone is Nokia S60 series then you can simply implement simple applications on your phone using script based programming language, call Python. To start you need to download

1) PythonForS60_1_3_23_3rdEd_selfsigned.SIS

2) PythonScriptShell_1_3_23_3rdEd_selfsigned.SIS

from SourceForge (or their latest edition) to your PC. Then connect your phone either via Nokia PC suite or via Bluetooth to your PC or laptop and transfer these two files to the phone and run these files from the phone. Just make sure you install PythonForS60 before PythonScriptShell. For more information about PyS60 see PyS60 wiki.

A helpful link to learn how to uninstall PyS60 or upgrade it can be found here. Or you can simply join Nokia forum.
