<drum roll> ...


[LIST][*][URL="http://www.developer.nokia.com/Profile/?u=lorion84"]lorion84[/URL] for his article [URL="http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Wiki/Optimising_Series_40_Web_Apps_for_speed_by_eliminating_server_round_trips"]Optimising Series 40 Web Apps for speed by eliminating server round trips[/URL]. This article explains how to write a highly responsive Series 40 Web App by avoiding server calls after initial load. It shows a good understanding of the intent and strengths of the web apps platform.
[*][URL="http://www.developer.nokia.com/Profile/?u=shaii"]shaii[/URL] for his article [URL="http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Wiki/Extending_lwuit_layouts"]Extending lwuit layouts[/URL]. This article is innovative and well written, and best of all provides a new container component that developers can use out-of-the-box in their applications.
[*][URL="http://www.developer.nokia.com/Profile/?u=Noel.Anonas"]Noel.Anonas[/URL] for [URL="http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Wiki/%EF%BB%BFPlaying_whacking_game_with_Accelerometer_Sensor"]Playing whacking game with Accelerometer Sensor[/URL]. This is a winner because the APIs are relevant and their use has been well-explained in a real and relevant context (a game). The game is also really fun![/LIST]

The final decision was fairly tough, so please check out the [URL="http://www.developer.nokia.com/Community/Wiki/Asha_Touch_Competition_2012Q3#Competition_entries"]other entries[/URL] too for some useful and innovative content. These articles can still win a phone pack in the final competition segment - indeed it is perfectly possible that they will be improved through the coming segment and win the grand prize.

The grand prize and [I]at least[/I] three additional winners will be selected at the end of August.
