• To use this build you must uninstall/remove the previously installed version of the S60 Player first.

The latest Mobile Player for S60 is available for download from http://monsoonftp.com/download/s60release/HavaPlayer1.0.71.SISX.

Watch and control your home TV from your S60 handset from anywhere in the world over broadband internet; via WiFi or a 3G connection. The on-screen remote and keyboard shortcuts allow you to control all your TV functions, just as you do at home with your TV remote.

To use Mobile Player you will need to have a device installed in your home to stream your home TV signal, and a broadband data connection at both ends.
