Run Python Scripts on Your Nokia Smartphone (O'ReillyNet)
Here's an O'Reilly book
excerpt on Python hacks for the Nokia Smartphone. "The current
Nokia phones do not come with the Python runtime environment
preinstalled. You have to download and install Python yourself. You can
download the Python for Series 60 package from the Forum Nokia web site
under the Series 60 Platform --> Tools and SDKs category. The download
package is a zip file with the .sis installation files, documentation, and
example code. Make sure you read the Getting Started document in the
download bundle to choose the correct .sis file for your phone."

Run Python Scripts on Your Nokia Smartphone (O'ReillyNet) Posted Nov 20, 2005 23:10 UTC (Sun) by cmb (subscriber, #14102) [Link] I've not seen this for series 80 (Communicator 9500 and such). Does anyone know if this is because the series 60 makes it particularly easy to write a Python interpreter, or just because nobody's written the series 80 one yet?
