Python for Series60

Nokia finally made the Python runtime for Series60 available near the end of last year. Python in Series60 might be the answer for those of us who would enjoy a relatively easy way to develop tools for our Nokia/Series60/Symbian phones without getting frustrated at the limitations of J2ME or running away from SymbianOS and C++.You can get the runtime here, documentation is included or it can also be found here. There is an official Series60 Python forum in the Nokia developers forums, and there are also some sites and blog posts out there with lots of interesting info such as this one, this one, even a Python Series60 wiki, or this blog from one of the Nokia guys who ported Python.
The good thing is that all you need is a text editor, the API docs as reference and when you're ready, just transfer the source to your phone via Bluetooth. It's just great
I always wanted to develop something for my Nokia phone so I might as well take a break from PHP and pLog soon...
