Shiny Video Review: Samsung F700v Croix
Yes, the Holy iPhone has launched, and the whole country can’t talk about anything but the darned phone. But what about the Samsung F700 Croix? Has everyone forgotten about this HSDPA-enabled, QWERTY…
Shiny Video Review: UK Apple iPhone
Obviously our US readers will look at this video and think we’re about four months too late, as the iPhone was launched state-side eons before anywhere else. The UK has just 24 hours until we can get our paws on…

Top 5 Gadget Sparklers for Bonfire Night
Remember, remember the 5th of the November – that's how the saying goes. Now Guy Fawkes, there was a man who knew a thing or too about making a statement. If only he'd have done it with his gadgets though and shown off his status with some bling, rather than trying to blow up the Houses of Parliament.
So, as it's Firework Night today, what better way to mark it than with five top sparklers from the techno-world. Unfortunately, not all of them can be waved around in the air and they don't make pretty colours in the smoke, but with gold and crystals on them, each one definitely costs more than a penny for the guy…

Sony Ericsson PXi concept phone for left-handers – but why?
This concept piece is apparently designed with left-handed mobile users in mind. But there are no details about what’s different on creator Bence Bogar’s design site. The little thumb wheel is right there, on the right-hand side, exactly where it is on all those fancy Blackberry things. It’s pretty much symmetrical.
It looks like a perfectly normal iPhone rip-off:
The LG Shine Wood will cause many pants-tents when it launches in Korea
Got wood? Err, no, I’ve just got titanium black, actually. It’s the phone which will spark a thousand euphemisms, but unfortunately you’ll have to live in Korea in order to employ some clever double entendre, and obviously with the language difference, it wouldn’t work anyway.
The Wood (or LG-LB2500H for those with a memory unaffacted by constant model number remembering), isn’t actually made…
Guitar Hero Mobile shown off at CTIA Wireless expo, critics love the three-button controls
Over in the US, the CTIA Wireless expo is a-happening, and the lucky folk at CNet have made us green with envy, as they got to fool around on the new Guitar Hero Mobile game.
The mobile version of the game first created for the PS2 is loosely based on Guitar Hero 3, but much more simplified for easy mobile handset usage. There are two characters – Alex Steel and Judy Nails, four guitars, and just 15 songs, however users subscribed to the service can buy three extra songs each month. If you’re…
