Loading ...WeatherBug announced the WeatherBug S60 widget today for select Nokia devices. WeatherBug’s S60 widget will utilize Nokia’s latest Web Runtime Technology (WRT) to bring local weather info to your phone.
The WeatherBug S60 widget will be available from http://weatherbug.com/ and via the Nokia Download! store and nokia.mobi site. Nokia also plans to pre-install WeatherBug on select Nokia devices; enabling the widget to be easily accessible with a single click from the S60 idle screen or applications menu.
The WeatherBug S60 widget includes live, local weather information for more than 50,000 locations worldwide and is local language supported for all regions. Detailed views of the seven day forecast, radar and satellite imagery, and camera images from WeatherBug’s proprietary weather network are also available on the S60 mobile widget.
The WeatherBug widget will be supported by advertising sold by both the Nokia and WeatherBug sales organizations.

How long have we been reading about S60 Widgets? About a year to my reckoning. How long has the idea of a Wetaherbug Widget for S60 been touted - almost as long. WHY ON EARTH therefore is this STILL not ready! Weatherbug should have had this ready and waiting to be downloaded as soon as Nokia madew publicly available the firmware that would run their widget. That was about A MONTH AGO IN THE CASE OF THE n95, and even now, we are being subject to this irritating publicity saying what we’ve known for a year - that there will be an S60 Wetaherbug Widget, and they STILL aren’t ready to offer it as a download - or even provide a DATE when it will be! NOT IMPRESSED!!
