Posted by Ade as Handheld, Phones

For those waiting to bring Mozilla's rendering goodness with them on the go because they feel that heavy contenders for mobile browsers like Opera Mobile and Safari for the iPhone isn't just cutting it, well, luck is on your side. The much-awaited Firefox Mobile 1.0 is finally out, but for those unlucky to not have a Nokia N900 will have to wait a bit because this new contender in the mobile browser war is available only for Maemo. From Download Squad: Like the desktop version of Firefox, version 1.0 of Firefox for Mobile looks to set itself apart from other mobile browsers with the inclusion of browser add-ons.

The Google Nexus One Phone: specifications revealed

Posted by Ade as Google, Handheld, Hardware, Phones

It looks like Google's not going to let news about their Nexus One die, because specs of the much-awaited Google Phone have come out. I'm guessing this is meant to stem the steady stream of questions about the phone's guts. I mean, how the heck are we all supposed to know if the Nexus One is going to be good if we don't know a single thing about its hardware specs? The good news is that the guys from Engadget have been able to get their hands on a Nexus One, and darn it's good. The highlights of the Nexus One specs are as follows: ...

The Google Nexus One: it’s coming

Posted by Ade as Google, Handheld, Phones

It all started as rumors spreading in Twitter. Apparently Google employees were given a phone to test (or "dogfeed," as the practice is known). The employees started tweeting about how amazing it was and how it can cure cancer, solve world hunger, etc. Okay, I'm just kidding. But we all know how great the new phone is and how Android 2.1 is amazing on it. Soon, pictures of the new phone started to leak and spread like wildfire. The "Google Phone" is running on HTC hardware and it seems to be an HTC Passion, but without the branding. 49239592

Google at first was claiming that the phone was just a mobile lab ...

Nokia N-Series Phones Will Probably Switch From Symbian to Maemo

Posted by Ade as Handheld, Linux, Phones

I have a love-hate relationship with the Symbian OS. On one hand, it's a mature mobile operating system with a huge selection of applications. On the other hand, it's been pretty restrictive, especially now that you have to sign your applications before you can even install them. Also, it's pretty old, the UI is horrible, and application programmers everywhere are complaining about how hard it is to make apps for Symbian. Which is why we're all keeping an eye on the N900. The N900, if you haven't heard, is the first phone running Nokia's Linux-based Maemo. Nokia already released a few internet tablets running Maemo before, but this is the first time we've seen Maemo being set up ...

Palm Pixi!

Posted by Ade as Gadgets, Phones

Palm Pixi

Introducing the Palm Pixi, the newest member of the Palm OS Family. Just look at it you guys. It's beautiful.

Originally nicknamed "Eos," the Pixi has with 8GB onboard storage, 2 megapixel camera (with flash), a full QWERTY keyboard, and a minute, 2.63-inch, 320 x 400 capacitive display. Sadly, there is no Wifi. You can also customize your Palm Pixi phone with a limited-edition back cover designed by some of today's most unique and compelling artists with the "Palm Pixi Artist Series."

You can now purchase a Palm Pre from Sprint for as low as $149.99 with contract. But the rumored price of the phone is said to be below $100. Hmmm. What gives, Palm?

Nokia 5800i: Wifi-less. Waitwhatwhy?

Posted by Ade as Cellphones, Gadgets, Phones

In a move that left me scratching my head a lot, Nokia is readying an update to their venerable 5800 XpressMusic. I guess to sell cheaper units, Nokia decided to release a version of the 5800 that does not have wifi. The new unit is called the 5800i, and it may have all the bells and whistles of its older brother, the one thing that's missing is the wifi radio. Check out the report from Unwired Review: Nokia 5800i XM just passed through FCC, and all the documents show pretty much the same handset, with similar specs and looks as the original 5800. Except for the Wi-Fi connectivity, which is lacking in Nokia 5800i....

Mini Nokia N97 Spotting

Posted by Geezer as Cellphones, Gadgets, Phones

Did you ever think that they would come out with a tiny version of the Nokia N97? Kunal Gangar at Tech Ticker wrote a blog post on the “leak” yesterday and not only did he write about it – he showed pictures! Take a look at that. At this point, the phone seems to be at the prototype stage. It has no proper name yet, but it does have the label “N00.” Taking a close look at the image, it is easy to see that it resembles the Nokia N97 very closely. Obviously, the screen is much smaller as well. More than that, the keypad ...

Coverage… It’s All About Coverage

Posted by Atasha as 3GSM, Apple, Cellphones, Cool Stuff, PDA, Phones, RAZR, Wireless

Nahhh...... not about the skimpy clothes the girl who passed by is wearing but rather the coverage of the many networks that are offering mobiles all over the place. Carriers offer mobile phone units for free in exchange for subscriptions to their mobile plans which is the norm in the industry. The mobile phone invasion has resulted in a whole generation of people who cannot exist without their mobiles that just keep on getting better and smaller. mobilecarriers

Though most carriers have expanded their coverage areas, it is still wise to compare cell phone coverage areas for the best deal. Though dead-spots may never be eliminated, the larger the area coverage, ...
