You can install two types of applications and software to
your device:
J2ME
TM
applications based on Java
TM
technology
with the extension .jad or .jar. PersonalJava
TM
applications cannot be installed on your device.
Other applications and software suitable for the
Symbian operating system. The installation files
have the .sis extension. Only install software
specifically designed for your device.
Installation files may be transferred to your device from a
compatible computer, downloaded during browsing, or
sent to you in a multimedia message, as an e-mail
attachment, or using Bluetooth. You can use Nokia
Application Installer in Nokia PC Suite to install an
application to your device or a memory card.
After you install applications to a compatible memory
card, installation files (.sis) remain in the device memory.
The files may use large amounts of memory and prevent
you from storing other files. To maintain sufficient
memory, use Nokia PC Suite to back up installation files to
a compatible PC, then use the file manager to remove the
installation files from the device memory. See "PC Suite",
p. 87 and "File manager", p. 96. If the .sis file is a message
attachment, delete the message from the messaging inbox.
