Microsoft and Blockbuster to offer mobile movie services
In a world that’s going more and more mobile with each passing day, offering new mobile services is definitely a good way for lots of companies to increase their revenues.
So it’s no wonder that Microsoft is now in talks with Blockbuster, the famous chain of DVD and video game rental stores, in order to [...]
Verizon’s Samsung Omnia is now $50 cheaper
Samsung Omnia is not widely available across the US (it will be starting December 8), yet Verizon Wireless has already decided to cut its price from $249.99 to $199.99 (a 2-yr contract agreement is obviously required).
Needless to say, this is good news for all those who have pondered on buying the Omnia but felt [...]
Facebook messaging available for Symbian handsets; Java and Windows Mobile to follow
Those about 130 million Facebook users should be doing great today – at least after they’ll find out that Facebook messaging is now being pushed on any mobile device.
emoze, an Israeli company, subsidiary of Emblaze, has announced that Symbian users can now “add their Facebook messaging in combination with any number of email messaging [...]
Nokia World will see the launch of apparently unleakable new device, services?
We’ve leaked the Nokia E72 and E75. The Nokia E63 has already been officially announced. We know that the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is already on its way to retail stores in select markets. What else could Nokia possibly have in store for us that hasn’t yet been leaked onto the Internets?!
A new device? A new [...]
Nokia 2608 CDMA phone announced
Wondering where all the new low-end Nokia CDMA phones have gone? So am I, but I’ve managed to get wind of the latest one that’s been announced, the Nokia 2608.
The Nokia 2608 is nothing short of unremarkable. It seems the only thing about it that will catch anyone’s attention is its color: fuchsia with a [...]
Fly MC130 to go on sale next week for $145 a piece
Music phones with built-in audio chips aren’t exactly new, but have you ever tried one with a piece from Yamaha? If you want to, then you should keep your eyes on the simple Fly MC130. I’m not sure if its name is supposed to be a joke (there’s a kind of plane called the MC130) [...]

It seems Sony Ericsson and Motorola aren’t the only ones having problems with their upcoming products, and cancelling models right before they start to ship. While Motorola has canned the Motorola RAZR3, and Sony Ericsson has cancelled Paris and BeiBei, Nokia has also axed an unannounced model that could’ve been a good one for their [...]
Motorola Alexander and Motorola Atila coming in Q1 2009
Is it just me, or are the Motorola Atila and Motorola Alexander very poorly designed? Anyway, the two unnannounced Motorola smartphones, earlier leaked in live pics, are said to be “under construction” in the factories of Compal Communications. Maybe that explains where all these leaked photos have been coming from.
This info is gathered from a [...]
NTT DoCoMo cancels Nokia E71 after Nokia ditches Japan
Rumor has it that the Nokia E71 will have the letter “X” appended to its name by the time it launches on AT&T’s network. That it will be called the Nokia E71x, and available in a color that can only be called unorthodox black. But over in Japan, a different kind of X has hit [...]
