The new touchscreen based LG KS660 supports two SIM cards simultaneously, while the extravagant GD910 mobile phone takes the shape of a wristwatch and shines with 3G support for video calls.
LG KS660 is a dual-SIM phone supporting tri-band GSM connectivity. It has a 3-inch TFT touchscreen display with WQVGA resolution (400×240), 5 megapixel camera with autofocus and video recording at 720×480@15fps. Additional specs include 50MB internal storage, microSD expansion slot (up to 4GB), Bluetooth and USB capabilities.
The unfortunate absentees are 3G and Wi-Fi. The first LG handset featuring two SIM cards will likely aim at the Asian and Eastern European markets, much like the Dual SIM lineup by Samsung.
The second mobile phone is LG GD910 and it comes in the unusual wristwatch form factor. Perhaps you remember the wristwatch prototype by LG that was displayed at the MWC 2008. Well, they’ve made it real this time and it would be first showcased at the CES 2009 next month. Read the rest of this entry »

Samsung have a really nice cameraphone in store for all of us, due in the beginning of 2009. The S8300 has obviously slipped under someone’s door, as it’s not officially announced yet.
Only 12.8mm thick, the Samsung S8300 has an absolutely massive widescreen OLED display, probably the largest one we’ve seen to date, and the fact that it’s a touchscreen, makes it that much sweeter.
The S8300 specs sheet is further pumped up by an 8 megapixel camera with auto focus, a GPS receiver, HSDPA and DivX video support. Judging from the interface shots, the handset doesn’t seem to be a smartphone, but instead is running on the Samsung’s proprietary TouchWiz feature phone interface, well known from the Samsung Pixon for example.

The hard working guys over at the iPhone Dev team have finally did it – the software unlock for the iPhone 3G is ready and will be made public on New Year’s Eve. And best of all, it will be free as usual. To prove they have the real Mccoy, a member of the Dev-Team has published a video of the actual unlocking.
The iPhone Dev-Team have been working on a software unlocking method for iPhone 3G since Day One and they are finally ready. For the time being, the method, codenamed yellowsn0w, requires command line operation, but the Dev-Team promises a nice looking graphical interface for inexperienced users. The tool will be available for download on New Year’s Eve. 3G or not 3G is no longer the question. Read the rest of this entry »

The next generation of Windows Mobile powered devices by Sony Ericsson presumably won’t be HTC-made. Instead, Sony Ericsson will entrust their new smartphone production to a Taiwan-based company called Mobinnova.
The Taiwanese Mobinnova already have experience with mobile phones production under their Foxconn Electronics brand but we can only guess the reason behind that decision of Sony Ericsson (if true at all). Perhaps they are after a better differentiation of their products or are reluctant of using their main WinMo competitor as OEM. Read the rest of this entry »

The Nokia N96 has been added to the shortlist of models which you can use to download unlimited music from Nokia Music Store for free. Until now, the only chance to be able to jump into Nokia’s ocean of more than 2 million tracks was to have the Comes with Music editions of the Nokia 5310 and Nokia N95 8GB.
The new Comes with Music edition of Nokia N96 will set you back 540 GBP (around 570 euro or 800 US dollars), which is about 60 GBP more than what you would pay for the standard version of the phone. What you get for that extra money is the permission to download unlimited number of tracks from the Nokia Music store. Read the rest of this entry »
