First Ever 8 Megapixel Camera Phone - Sony Ericsson C905 Cyber-Shot

There is a disturbing trend developing in the mobile industry. It seems to be limited at the moment to the two Korean manufacturers, Samsung and LG. It would appear they cannot decide on a simple naming strategy for their mobile phones.
Take the Samsung F480 as an example. Apart from the F480 model name, I have seen the phone referred to as the Libra, and more recently the ‘Touchwiz’ (who thinks of these names??) and now the Tocco. And that is just for the UK, the F480 will be known under different names in different countries/regions.
It’s crazy! And I assume if I find it confusing, and I work in the mobile industry, how do the consumers feel?
Another example would be recent handsets from LG. The KG800 was always better known as the Chocolate. Move on to the Venus. Oh no, hang on, the Venus isn’t the Venus, it’s a KF510! Then they announce the LG KF750, only to change it at the last minute and call it the LG Secret. Very confusing, and seemingly without any logic.
I wait to see what the next mess will be that one of these two manufacturers brings to the market. Let’s hope this naming problem doesn’t spread to the other handset makers.
Regardless of confusing names though, it has to be said that the Samsung Tocco is a really well specified phone - it’s very much like a 3G iPhone except that it’s available right now and is a fraction of the price!

The brand new Bluetooth headset from Aliph, the new Jawbone 2, is of an outstanding quality that combines an amazing design with great features. The new Jawbone is 50% smaller than its predecessor and weights just 10 grams, which makes it extremely comfortable and lightweight to wear and use. Also this version has a new fast charge battery which can charge up to 80% in only 30 minutes.
The Aliph Jawbone includes a new feature called “noise assassin”, developed for the US military to be used in extremely noisy environments such as being in a helicopter and even a battlefield. This blocks out up to 90% of background noise compared to other Bluetooth headsets.
The new Jawbone 2 is constructed with premium materials including ultra smooth medical grade plastic and optional fine leather earloops. It has an elegant, clean look to it and has an invisible button by using touch-surface technology.
The luxurious design of the new Jawbone was created by Yves Behar. The outside cover of the Bluetooth headset is curved which matches the outline of the face so it is comfortable to wear. The look of the outside cover has a unique diamond pattern made up of a three dimensional texture, the materials of which help in reducing background noise. The inside surface of the headset is made from medical grade plastic that makes it soft and smooth on the skin.
Other brilliant features on this latest edition Jawbone headset are that it has a excellent standby time of 8 days and a talk time of 4 hours. It can be used at up to 10 meters away from the mobile phone and can be used on both left and right ears.
Normally retailing at a premium price the Aliph Jawbone Bluetooth headset is available free with selected pay monthly mobile phones from Mobiles.co.uk.

The G700 is a Symbian UIQ phone, which operates via a touchscreen. As well as the large simple icons that are ideal for selection by thumb or finger, you can also use a stylus on the phone for writing text messages thanks to the handwriting recognition support. You can also use the stylus to write yourself a quick note, which is saved on the screen of the phone, a bit like an electronic post it note.
The G700 has a built in 3.2 megapixel camera, and the handset has support for mobileblogging. Once you have set up the handset with the correct settings you can post to your blog on the move. A web browser is also included on the phone, and this is complimented by a 3G data connection. The G700 includes support for push email. With the correct email account you can receive emails on your mobile phone as soon as they are received in your email inbox.
