Nokia's port of the popular open source programming language Python is the magic ingredient behind some of the more unusual free apps that we have covered here at Pocket Picks.
Open source projects really benefit from a healthy community to share ideas, code and enthusiasm, so it is heartening to see a new community for new Python coders with an interest in S60 apps - Croozeus.com.
The site is in it's early days, but already has a selection of tutorials and sample code. The Croozeus blog is running a 'featured applicationn' series for downloadable apps (with full source code) - currently there is just the one, a rather dry-soundinng but quite clever app to solve simple maths equations.
By happy coincidence, Nokia has released an update to bring PyS60 up to version 1.4.4, improving S60 3rd edition SDK 3.1 support and adding some SMS management functions. Why not download it here and see if the life of a PyS60 developer is for you
