Vibrator work on series 6.0 phones

It seems like Nokia finally implemented the vibrator API on the phones.

I have tested it on the 6680, but it should also work on 6630 and I guess it will be standard on all the future series 60 phones from Nokia.

Here is the code that does the trick:

CVibraControl* vibra = VibraFactory::NewL();
vibra->StartVibraL(10000);

Remember that the vibrator function has to be switched on in the current selected profile for this to work. E.g. Tools/Profiles/Vibrator On.

New Nokia Phones Introduced

Just as The 6680 and 6681 phones hit the street Nokia announced their new series of phones the N-series.

It looks like the N-70 is just a newer version of the 6680.
The N-90 looks like it is dedicated to recording pictures and video,
but the N-91 is the most interesting, that is an online version of an mp-3 player, with Wireless LAN, WCDMA, 4GB hard disk and Symbian OS 9.1.
