Nokia has just released a beta of an application that adds ‘threaded SMS’ functionality to Series60v3 devices on their beta page.
The program is said to integrate into the contacts application and act as an additional tab containing the conversation data(image courtesy of Nokia):
Tests on our N71 showed that the app could be installed easily and showed up in the launcher - but didn’t do anything useful.
A conversation was constructed between a Treo 680 and the N71 - but the program didn’t react. Launching Conversation did nothing - even though the SMS arrived on both devices(as indicated by the Treo screenshot):
Nokia’s embracing of threaded SMS concept proves that the company listens to its customers. However, a program that doesn’t work can’t be reviewed…so :(.
Does Conversation work on your phone? Please let us know!
