Palm teaser site promises new smartphone on September 12th
Palm are dangling the proverbial carrot infront of our noses, with a teaser site set up claiming a new Palm smartphone will be unveiled on the 12th of September. With only eight days to go, I don’t know how Palm-fans will be sleeping at night.
There’s speculation rising all over the internet as to what the phone will be, but the general consensus seems to be that it’ll be the Centro….
Video: Nokia's new N81 music phone in action
As you’ll know if you ready our Nokia Go Play liveblog yesterday, alongside its launch of the Nokia Music Store, the company unveiled its new N81 8GB music phone.
Well, there were plenty of ’em available for demoing at the event, so I grabbed one to shoot a quick video, showing its neat multimedia user interface that sees one button take you directly to your music, videos and other content.
Earn money when abroad using Noodle's international calls
A phone service which not only promises to save you money, but to make you money? Bah! Sounds like something Richard Branson dreamt once, and then chuckled to himself for 37 minutes upon waking up, before going back to bed for another sleep.
Yet, that’s what Noodle are promising to do for clients, by giving you a special Noodle number when you text them before you go abroad. When there, grab yourself a cheap local SIM card, contact Noodle and let them know that SIM card’s number, make your friends call you when sunning yourself by the pool…
LG 'Viewty' U990 confirmed as the Prada-less mobile with extra-spiffy specs
I’m quickly becoming obsessed with LG’s as-yet unreleased U990 mobile, with it having the aesthetics of the LG Prada, minus the Prada branding, and compensating by packing a huge amount of extra features for us less fashionable sorts who shop at Primark.
Susi got her hands on one last week, and even did a quick video review, with thanks to the network 3 (who’ll be selling the phone later this year), but we haven’t seen any proper photos of it yet – until now. It’s just been officially confirmed, and will be flying storewide by Autumn this year. Which, err, judging by the weather, should’ve been about three months ago…
Shiny Review: Motorola Razr²
It’s Susi’s designated day to review a piece of gadgetry for your tech-starved eyes, so read on below for her thoughts regarding Motorola’s newest phone, the Razr². Takes me back to maths class with dear Mr. Hampson, having that square root ‘2’. ARGHHH!!! Take it away, Susi…
I’ve already highlighted my disappointment at the name of the Razr², or the Razr 2 as it forever will be known. I shall not bore you again. Luckily, this is one of the only failings of this phone. Let’s start with the important stuff – how pretty it is…
Is the CECT W100 watch phone an iPhone Killah?
Whilst not the most attractive watch ever created (I think that title goes to some of the watches we discovered the other week on the Nerd Watch Museum site), this CECT W100 does something rather special which is bound to impress the lads in your local boozer…
Samsung patent for ladeez mobile phone which informs when to get up the duff
Samsung are churning out the mobile phone patents faster than you can say “but I’m really quite content with my Motorola, actually”, and Engadget have just got wind of one designed specifically for the ladeez.
The unnamed phone contains an application which is capable of tracking a woman’s fertile periods, so the user can be updated on when the best time to conceive is, and when you really should be using the rubber…

Shiny Preview: LG U990, soon to be on 3
There’s going to be a battle of epic proportions this Christmas. The Grinch and Christmas Spirit? Only Fools and Horses Christmas Special against The Vicar of Dibley Christmas Special?
No, this is the battle of the 5 megapixel camera phones. LG’s offering is the U990, which is like the Prada phone, but better. It’s even being touted as the iPhone killer (obviously). It’s got a touch screen with vibrating feedback…
