New Diamond Cell Phone from Tiffany 2008-02-01 08:26:39 Luxury cell phones are not a new thing anymore, but they keep on appearing to satisfy the fashion needs of those who have larger bank accounts. SoftBank, a leading Japanese mobile carrier,partnered with Tiffany
Japan to bring such a phone, that will be sold for 10 million Japanese Yens, meaning about $93,600. It cannot compete against the world's most expensive phone, Goldvish Le Million, which costs more than 1 million USD, but it's still a terribly expensive device.The handset comes encrusted in no less than 400 diamonds, totaling a bit over 20 carats, and will be available starting this month, most probably before Valentine's Day, to make an extravagant gift.There aren't many technical details about the Tiffany handset, except the fact that it's a 3G device. However, judging by the spec Read more:Cell Phone
Google improves search facilities for mobiles 2008-02-01 08:22:54 The new Google
mobile search service that was launched in the US in March last year is now available in the UK, France, Germany and Canada, and has been improved.The upgraded service is claimed to offer faster searches and "more relevant results", according to the BBC.Previously, mobile phone users using Google had to specify a search type in advance, or afterwards choose between different indexes such as local results, images or websites. This has now been changed.A Google spokesman told the BBC: "The big thing that people will notice is that they just get the results they want, without them having to think ahead of time what sort of information they are looking for."You don't have to click through so many pages on that tiny little screen and on those tiny little buttons."He added that mo Read more:mobiles
How Sony Ericsson PSP Could Look Like 2008-01-30 12:24:34 In the Summer of 2007, rumors about a SonyEricsson
PSP mobile phone have appeared, allowing both Sony Ericsson and PlayStation fans to hope that, someday, a device that combinesthe two brands' technologies could really exist. Since then, the PSP handset was confirmed, denied and almost confirmed again, so it has become a sort of a mobile myth. However, it is a general belief that the phone will exist sometime in the future, as officials from Sony Ericsson stated they seriously consider creating it.Recently, new images of how Sony Ericsson PSP might be like appeared in the January issue of Stuff magazine in the UK, showing a device that looks almost real. Unfortunately it's not, being only a very well done Photoshop rendering. However, this imagined PSP phone could be very close to the rea
Samsung E590 Review 2008-01-30 12:20:09 DesignThe most notable thing about the E590's design is its simplicity. There are no glossy surfaces. There are no touch-sensitive keys. There is no floral embossing. This lack of festive flair doesn't make for a boring phone though -- the phone has a clean, utilitarian design, but then so does a little player called the iPod.The candy bar E590 comes in black or white, and at 66 grams almost floats on the palm. Grasping it in your hand, you feel like a giant meddling with the mobile of a standard human -- the footprint is about the same as a second-gen iPod nano.A 220 x 220-pixel, 262k colour display sits atop a grid of refreshingly normal number keys and navigation buttons. All are the same shape -- think the cross-section of a Tic Tac. A stubby joystick handles the on-screen menu movemen Read more:Samsung
Motorola MOTOFONE F3 Review 2008-01-27 07:45:14 DesignWhat does seventy bucks buy you? Well, in mobile terms, any number of capped plans for a month, or about one-tenth of a decent phone. What you wouldn't normally expect it to get you is a half-decent phone -- or at least a phone that looks like it was designed in the last six years. That's where Motorola
's low-cost MOTOFONE is deceptive; it's a thin, stylish phone with enough features liberally cribbed from Motorola's bag of design tricks to appeal to most users -- but it's also only one dollar short of seventy bucks. For some mobile phone users, that's practically throwaway money.The other notable thing about the MOTOFONE, from a design perspective, is that it's remarkably thin for a candybar form factor phone. It measures in at 114 by 47 by 9 millimetres with a carrying weight of 7
Nokia N82 mobile phone 2008-01-27 07:26:08 Nokia's flagsip phone

is the N95 8GB, but that still hasn't stopped the Finish company from launching the N82 a pseudo N95 with a focus on the digital camera elements rather than an overall multimedia device. But is it just a candy bar version of the N95? We get phoning to find out.Described as "the latest multimedia computer optimized for photography, navigation and internet connectivity" the Nokia N82 is a candy bar handset that comes in a plastic and metal finish. Dimensions are 112 x 50.2 x 17.3 mm while it weighs 114g slightly lighter than the N95.Tech specs include A-GPS, a 5-megapixel camera, Xenon flash, Carl Zeiss optics and internet connectivity alongside HSDPA and Bluetooth connectivity.The design, which is large and fat is also confusing to use with too many menu shortcu Read more:Nokia

Samsung G600 and its 5 Megapixel Camera Go Pink 2008-01-26 05:06:19 Samsung announced that its 5 Megapixel G600 phone will be available in the UK in a new pink version, obviously preparing the handset for the Valentine's Day frenzy. So we have yet another Samsungphone for girls, after the recently announced Samsung L310 and Samsung L320 or the older models that we lost track of. What the pink version of G600 brings new is the fact that it is UK's first mobile phone with a 5 Megapixel camera that gets dressed in this color.As I'm not a girl nor a boy that enjoys pink too much, I don't find the new look of G600 too appealing, but I'm sure others will. Besides, the girly cover hides the same specs that the original phone does, which means it's the same high-end device that won the "Phone of the Year" title in 2007.Samsung G600 measures 101 x 47.8 x 14.9 milli Read more:Camera

New Virtual Keyboard Imagined by Nokia 2008-01-26 05:01:42 Nokia keeps on filing patent applications with the clear intention to make future improvements in the way users interact with mobile phones. After a patent filed in December2007 for a 2 in 1 keypad idea, now the Finnish company has another keyboard-related idea, but this time we are talking about a virtual one (the keyboard, not the idea).The new concept requires, first of all, a phone with a built-in camera and optical sensors and comes to enhance the way we write text messages or e-mails on our phones – we all know it's not really the fastest way to do it, due to handsets' reduced sizes. Samsung has found a way to overcome this drawback, by adding projectors to phones, in order to project a virtual (and large) display that will enable easy text input. However, this is also just a conce Read more:Nokia
No title 2008-01-25 09:19:37 BlackBerry Pearl 8110, of which we first heard at the end of 2007, was officially released by Vodafone Spain and RIM, coming as one of the smallest and lightest smartphones to date and the first Pearl handset with built-in GPS.Despite the fact that it measures 107 x 55 x 14 mm and weighs only 91 g, BlackBerry Pearl 8110 packs lots of goodies, starting with the GPS capabilities that, together with the Vodafone GPS Navigator, will provide quick searches for business locations and other points-of-interest as well as audible directions while driving. The handset also comes with a QWERTY SureType keyboard and the BlackBerry trackball navigation system to offer an excellent mobile experience. A 2 Megapixel camera with enhanced flash, 5x digital zoom and video capture support will allow users to
Nokia Finally Reached 40 Percent of the Global Market Share 2008-01-25 09:16:20 Nokia announced its financial results for 2007 and reported that it has reached 40 percent of the global market share, a goal that the company hadfor some time but never managed to achieve it. This was possible thanks to the excellent sales from the fourth quarter of 2007, when a total of 133.5 million Nokia devices were sold.According to the press release from the Nokia website, the total number of mobile devices shipped by the company world-wide in 2007 raises to 437.1 million, which represents a new annual volume record. This is an increase of 25.8% when compared to the 374.5 million units sold in 2006. Furthermore, the 2007 net sales have reached a value of 51.1 billion Euro, with 23% more than the net sales from 2006.Besides the overall increased sales, which sure make Nokia officials Read more:Finally

Fujitsu F705i is World's Slimmest, Waterproof 3G Cellphone 2008-01-25 09:12:15 With a thickness of only 13.7mm, the F705i is the slimmest, waterproof phone ever made. Our little wonder meets IPX5 and IPX7 waterproof standards; the phone should continue operating after being sprayed with water or plunged underwater (1m max for 30 minutes). Perfect for those who use their phone at hot springs (Japanese onsen) or in the bathtub.The F705i also features the Super Clear Voice and Super Clear Mike, which automatically adjusts the volume of an incoming caller’s voice according to the ambient noise level.Our device also receives a 1.3Mpix camera, the Quick Zoom (in order to increase or decrease the size of the text displayed on the screen). 106x49x13.7mm, 111g, 170min of talk time and 100min for videophone.Source: gizmodo.com Read more:Fujitsu

Mobile phone with pull-out e-paper display to launch 2008-01-22 07:41:56 Like Amazon's Kindle, the Readius has a so-called electronic paper
screen, which displays black-and-white text and images that look almost like they have been printed on paper.The device -- which will also just make phone
calls -- connects to the Internet using the third-generation mobile phone networks with high data speeds.The company said it was talking to retailers as well as mobile operators to sell the device. Like Apple's iPhone, the gadget offers the chance for operators to boost data usage, which is more profitable than voice revenues.Users will be able to set up their email accounts, news sources, podcasts, audio books and blog feeds at home on their computer, and the data is then pushed to the device whenever it is updated.McGoldrick said the company opted to use this approach - Read more:Mobile
Asus Officially Unveils Its Nokia E90 Competitor 2008-01-21 16:25:23 Asus M930, the smartphone with a full QWERTY keyboard announced last year to be a tough competitor for Nokia
's N90 Communicator, is now officially unveiled and should becommercially available in March 2008.Leaked specs about the smartphone appeared for the first time back in November 2007, and the official ones that now surfaced are pretty much the same. What doesn't coincide is the nature and power of its processor: while rumors said it's going to be a Marvel PXA27x 520 MHz one, the real processor is a Texas Instruments TI2431 one at 450 MHz, so we have less power than expected. Anyway, Nokia E90 runs with a processor at only 330 MHz, so the M930 is clearly a winner from this point of view.Another worthy feature that Asus M930 comes with is its unusual design that allows you to open it at Read more:Asus
The New Toshiba Portege Handsets Officially Presented 2008-01-21 16:20:43 The Italian division of Toshiba
recently presented, in Milan, the new Portege handsets announced a few months ago: Toshiba G910 / G920 and Toshiba G710,plus Toshiba G450 – a USB modem with phone functionality.It seems that the G920 and G910 names hide the same device, and its naming will differ depending on the market it's launched for. Since in Italy (hence Europe) the handset was just presented as G910, the US will probably get it as G920.The official specifications for Toshiba G910, as presented in Italy, are: 3 inch touchscreen TFT display with a 480 x 800 pixel resolution, 2 Megapixel camera, 3G/HSPDA, built-in GPS receiver, GPRS, Bluetooth, VoIP (via Wi-Fi), Media Player, Java (MIDP 2.0 and JSR179), Mobile Outlook and ActiveSync.
