The Nokia 5800 free application list
This is a collection of a number of free applications built on the S60 V5 platform, for the Nokia 5800. All the applications are fully free or are lite versions. The list does not have any trial or other crippleware. I have tried to research the original source for each of these applications, where available, and link to those only. As a result, you will not see examples where apps were shared or redistributed without appropriate license or authorization. The list has 80 applications and counting.
Click on the table headers to sort the list.
Update: With the creation of the Ovi store this project is no longer relevant. I have not updated this in a while, and many links are probably broken now.
