The music player comes with 262,000 color display screen as well as a navigation keypad. with 100MB of internal storage with microSD expansion up to 2GB, a 220 x 176 display, 2 megapixel cam, FM radio, Bluetooth with A2DP, and a triband GSM radio with EDGE all crammed into a 9.4 millimeter shell.

Sony Ericsson DVB-H phone

About a month ago Sony and Sony Ericsson announced a join development on a new LCD display screen for mobile phone with RealityMAX engine so they can maybe produce a “Bravia” mobile phone.

Today this photo has been posted on a number of websites and it’s claimed to be the new Bravia DVB-H mobile phone.

Information like this is not always correct. But, it’s worth looking at all the same. More info is not available yet but if we hear anything we’ll let you know.

Sony Ericsson “Li” K770i

se k770i Another phone from Sony Ericsson! these pictures where leaked today on a chinese website. The new phone (K770i) will feature a 2 megapixel camera with auto focusing, M2 memory card slot, EDGE and branded as cyber-shot camera phone. The phone body size is not revealed, it’s not sure if it will be as slim as the Sony Ericsson AI W880. Stay tune for more info!

I suspect with this spec, not to many people will get worked up over it, but lets see in a few months what it’s like.

The iphone

So Apple dont own the name “iphone” the real legit iPhone is from Linksys. Its a product line of VoIP products offered by them under the name iPhone (Internet Phone). Market analysts reckon that this could be detrimental to Apple’s interests because people have associated “i” with Apple products. But on the other hand, we say that Apple is smart and have never mentioned about their phone called as iPhone.

“This is going to make it trickier for Apple to establish their own iPhone _ it’s going to have to look, feel and sound very different in order to be distinguished from the Cisco one,” said David Dunne, a marketing expert at the University of Toronto’s Rotman School of Management.

While Apple has not confirmed it is working on a mobile phone, company chief executive Steve Jobs is expected to make an announcement about the company’s move into cellular telephones at the annual Macworld Expo in San Francisco on Jan. 9.

Apple Phone

apple phone Rumours have been ongoing for year about apple releasing a Mobile Phone, it’s also rumoured to be released in January in the US.

The Apple phone will come in 4GB ($249) and 8GB ($449) and will be powered on two batteries. One will be reserved for music and the other one for phone purposes. They also reckon that it will have a slider form factor with touch sensitive screen and supporting both GSM and CDMA networks.

Nothing is known about the operating system but it could be but a mobile version of OS X, I guess we’ll have to wait and see.

The LG KE850

It’s might take a while for the LG KE850 to be official announcement but it’s sometimes nice just to see what phones are coming to market next year.

This is rather a simple design with a display screen that takes up most of the space of front body. The size of the display screen is unknown, but the resolution is as high as 240 x 400 pixels. The phone has no keypad or slide keypad, the touch screen will do all the task needed.

We’ll keep an eye open for more information on this mobile

3’s X-Series platform reviewed on Nokia N73

nokia-n73-x-series engadgetmobile.com have a good review of the x-series from three, aldo they are reviewing the UK model for the three network…we expect to see this available in Ireland early next year. “With cellular providers upping fees left and right, it’s refreshing to finally see a provider offer up a valuable package to its users with a halfway decent pricetag. UK’s 3 has struck a nerve with 3G gurus and multi-taskers alike, and its flagship X-Series platform has received a thorough critiquing from the folks at Digital Lifestyles. Currently running on Nokia’s N73 (with Sony Ericsson’s W950i to follow in January), the all-you-can-download approach to utilizing 3G applications apparently did fairly well in testing. Garnering praise in the diversity and usability departments, reviewers were pleased with the inclusion of Skype, Yahoo Go!, Mobile Mail, 3’s web browser, and Windows Live Messenger — all of which performed at least up to expectations for the low £5 ($9.85) per month fee. ”

” The only major digs came from the lack of SkypeOut support (which is promised for the future), no caller ID data on incoming Skype calls, and the inability to control / watch recorded shows via SlingPlayer. Of course, the latter headache will only bother those who spring for the £10 ($19.70) monthly package, which includes the ability to purchase the Sling software for a discounted £99 ($194.95) and use OrbPC to boot. Overall, the crew was generally pleased with the service and its performance on the N73, and while it called the SlingPlayer “a pig to set up,” it dubbed the X-Series platform “the future” of cellphones.”
