ShakeLock Freeware: Shake Your N82, Lock Your Phone

This has to be one of the coolest accelerator applications I've seen come out. Believe me we've seen a handful of useless accelerometer applications. Don't get me wrong, there are some good ones, but I think I'd be using this one the most. Basically with ShakeLock you just shake your phone to lock and unlock your Nokia N82. It's that simple, which makes it so beautiful. It's not gonna work unless you give it a good shake, so don't worry about it unlocking in your pocket. Keep in mind this is only the first version, so it will only get better with time.

Best thing is this application is freeware for the N82, but donations are encouraged. If you donate you get the latest updates to the application, so I think it's worth it to give a few bucks. This application is already signed, however, before installing you have to set your phone's date back one year, install ShakeLock, then you can switch the date back. Has something to do with the certificate being expired, good thing you can get around it.

Also, if you haven't aready, it looks as though you need to have Python installed on your Nokia N82. You'll end up need Python anyways since a lot of developers are using this method to make applications. Click here to install Python.

I first read it at Symbian-Guru's blog.
