Nokia 5320 and 5220 candybars Xpress Music

Tuesday, April 22nd, 2008

While we patiently wait for Nokia’s current, “no major new products” fiscal quarter to expire, we’ll have to trudge through releases like these 5320 (left) and 5220 (your other left) candybars.

Aliph’s Jawbone 2 comes in style

Friday, April 11th, 2008

So there are a couple of big complaints about Aliph’s otherwise-lauded Jawbone noise canceling Bluetooth headset: one, it’s rather porky, and two, the charge connector is about as reliable as a Comcast installation appointment. Hang tight, though, because help is on the way — help in the form of the Jawbone 2. The new [...]

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

     
We managed to get our hands on the HTC Touch Cruise: it is the first GSM phone from the Touch series with a built-in GPS. This model is the successor to the P3300 Artemis and its design is reminding us of that, but it adds the flat screen and the TouchFlo personalization, which [...]
