Written by Tarja, Nokia Wellness Diary team I have been using Wellness Diary to count my steps, monitoring my sleep and exercise for about a month now.

Patent Ideas Shows Inbuilt Projection Screen
Phone with inbuilt projectors are hardly a new concept, indeed the idea has been around for years, but it has never really got off the ground. Well a Sony Ericsson patent is putting a new twist on that old idea … an inbuilt projection screen.
The device shown in the illustration has an inbuilt projector, but it also features an extendible screen that the projector can use to actually display content. It’s actually not a bad idea if you are going to cram a projector into a phone in the first place since it solves the problem of finding a suitable surface to use the projector on. It also means more screen real estate for things like watching films.
Mind you I’m not sure how useful it would be beyond that, especially if it added bulk to the device with a projection screen tucked away.
