Motorola RAZR2 Pink Silver edition looks cool, I guess

Thu, 15 May 2008 09:45:33 +0000

Is it the lack of innovation at Motorola or just an idea to maximize revenue from the existing devices? Or both? Don't know, but following the introduction of the ultra-cool RAZR2 V9 Ferrari Edition, the American handset maker has unveiled a new flavor of the device.

Back in February, we wrote that Dior and Swarovski are working on a mobile phone. Apparently Dior is leaning toward the official launch, which is set for tomorrow, Friday May 16th.

Rogers Wireless to carry the BlackBerry Bold 9000 in Canada

Thu, 15 May 2008 08:06:23 +0000

Rogers Wireless will be the first carrier to offer the newly announced BlackBerry Bold 9000 in Canada. We all expected this to happen, and because RIM is a Canadian company, maybe even before AT&T got the exclusive launch rights for the U.S. Still, U.S. is a bigger market for the BlackBerry-maker and announcing a U.S. [...]

FCC clears i-mate Ulimate 8502 for duty in the US

Thu, 15 May 2008 00:56:16 +0000

i-mate's Ultimate lineup of mobile phones is definitely a mobile enthusiasts wet dream. At least in theory. With no US wireless carrier-support and nary an FCC seal of approval to speak of, i-mate hasn't exactly broken into the US high-end handset market. So, no matter how high-end the i-mate Ultimate lineup may be, there's just [...]

ASUS isn't showing any signs of slowing down its Windows Mobile product lineup anytime soon. The ASUS P560 may be a bit overshadowed by the company's Lamborghini-branded ASUS ZX1, but that doesn't mean the ASUS P560 isn't a true powerhouse by any means. The quad-band (850/900/1800/1900Mhz) GSM ASUS P560 is powered by Windows Mobile Professional 6.1 [...]

Here's an interesting mobile phone concept designed by Emir Rafat. The cool thing about it is that it's made to be an all-in-one device, sporting a total of 5 touchscreens which change to suit the current application used. That being said, you can use a numeric keypad or a full QWERTY keyboard which is divided [...]

It's official: Swisscom bringing the iPhone to Switzerland!

Wed, 14 May 2008 09:37:36 +0000

Swisscom secured the rights to carry the iPhone in the land of watches, cheese and banks. It's the first-gen version which many of you already own, and not the rumored 3G version with GPS, mobile TV and video conferencing. Similarly to SingTel's or Vodafone's announcement, Swisscom isn't saying anything but "we got the iPhone." You can [...]

I can't wait to get the HTC Touch Diamond into my sweaty hands, and I'm sure there are a lot of you out there that feel the same way. Alas, we won't be getting any HTC Diamond goodness for some time to come, but that doesn't mean we can't pass the time with some HTC [...]

Rumors, being what they are, should be taken with a grain of salt. That said, the newest rumor to leak out of Waterloo indicates that RIM is brewing up a serious all-touchscreen contender to the iPhone. The rumored handset, known as the RIM BlackBerry 9500 "Thunder" is said to release as a Verizon Wireless/Vodafone exclusive [...]

AT&T: Free iPhone WiFi access coming, iPhone Black was a mistake

Tue, 13 May 2008 18:57:19 +0000

There are just some things that are too good not to be true. And then there are things that are just too ridiculous to believe. First off, AT&T has released a statement saying that the mention of free AT&T WiFi HotSpot access for iPhone users was "human error." Apparently, some hasty web-head pulled the trigger too [...]

AT&T gets BlackBerry Bold exclusive launch rights

Tue, 13 May 2008 08:03:39 +0000

AT&T scored the exclusive launch rights for the latest BlackBerry Bold smartphone. That doesn't mean other U.S. based carriers won't get a chance to carry the long awaited device. On the contrary, that only means AT&T will be the first to offer the device, with other carriers to follow within few weeks. Hence, that employee [...]

Not that anyone is actually waiting for the Motorola Z6w to launch on T-Mobile, but if you were looking for a WiFi-enabled Motorola Z6w slider to put in your pocket, consider your hopes and dreams dashed into oblivion. T-Mobile USA has reportedly nixed their plans to release the sleek Motorola Z6w slider due to "testing [...]

Don't let the lack of iPhones in-channel confuse you into thinking that Apple is twiddling their thumbs in preparation for the highly-anticipated launch of the 3G-toting iPhone next month. Cupertino is apparently working to ensure that their next-generation iPhone launch goes off without a hitch - just like they did with the current iPhone's initial [...]
