Is somebody here experienced with ngage mobiles? All the talk about the dpad mod made me think about purchasing one. Since my cellphone was stolen and I am into mobile gaming anyways, I thought about adding an ngage to my collection.
I founf a few nice auctions on ebay which I am going to try my luck at. There is a swap unit on sale for a laughable sum which I am trying to get my hands on right now. Swap unit meaning: a replacement unit without battery, hull and buttons. These are fairly cheap though and if I can get the unit, I will get the case including button, a battery and charger from ebay seperately.
Question is: is it worth the effort? How is the homebrew scene for the ngage? I know it's got symbian OS and there is a load of apps out there for symbian which are really neat. Is it easy to run unsigned code on an ngage or is it desperate (like with those sony ericson cellphones, as they are locked etc...)?
