It isn’t exactly the best device out there, as there still isn’t anything which can do everything well, and the iPhone 3GS is no exception.

Kyocera offers Laylo and Domino phones
Kyocera isn’t exactly one of the larger players in the cellphone arena, and their offerings fail to impress the masses most of the time, but that doesn’t mean they aren’t a honest, hardworking company. Well, perhaps the tide might turn in their favor with the announcement of two new cellphone launches – the Kyocera Laylo and Domino phones which will be available from MetroPCS, making it to retail stores just in time for the holiday season to show off to your family members and friends that you have finally decided to ditch that monochrome display handset without a digital camera built in.
The Laylo will come in a slider format, boasting an eye-catching red color with a soft-touch finish and a reflective twist. A quick slide downwards will open to reveal a hidden vanity mirror, which more or less places this in the domain of the ladies. Know of any guys who would want to carry a vanity mirror with them wherever they go? Well, the Domino will take on a candybar form factor instead, where it will also sport the Yuletide color of red while offering features that are a notch above other handsets of similar price levels.
A further search showed that the Laylo comes with a 2.2″ contoured high-resolution display and a 1.3 megapixel camera apart from the aforementioned discrete vanity mirror. You get a relatively generous keypad within with excellent tactile and visual separation of the keys for faster, easier typing. Other features include Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity, a WAP 2.0 browser, BREW 3.1.5 and a paperless user guide to get new users started while saving some trees in the process. The Domino, on the other hand, also comes with a large display with legible and large fonts. Other features like Bluetooth 2.0 connectivity, a WAP 2.0 browser and BREW 3.1.5 are alsow thrown in to offer more bang for your buck.
Any takers for a new phone this holiday season?

SMS Snoop captures Tigers of the world
Thinking of pulling off a Tiger Woods? You’d best go through your thought processes a couple of times more with wives and girlfriends being all the more wary about your ‘good boy’ image, as they now have the help of SMS Snoop – an application that was specially designed and programmed to catch those who abuse cellphone technology by cheating on their spouse or partner via SMS. All you need is a momentary lapse of concentration, where your spouse can then install the application without you knowing any better, and each SMS sent out by you will also be forwarded to their cellphone. All data can be saved or retrieved at any time for future proof in the event of infidelity. We do wonder how long this game can keep up though – especially if one checks through the bill each month to see the SMS costs double.

Garmin Oregon 450t and 450 touchscreen unveiled
Garmin, an old name when it comes to navigational devices, are back in the market with a couple of new devices – the Garmin Oregon 450t and 450 touchscreen. Both models will target the outdoor enthusiast, as they boast compatibility with the entire online community at Garmin Connect while supporting Garmin’s free Custom Maps utility that is useful for transferring paper or digital maps onto your compatible handheld. Sounds pretty neat, eh? With both models supporting touchscreen technology, you are able to navigate through a glove-friendly touchscreen interface. Don’t fret about keeping this safe and sound by being extra careful with it when outdoors – instead, Garmin won’t mind if you threw caution to the wind since the touchscreen display was built to be resistant to the rigors of nature, despite boasting 3″ of full color that can be read under most conditions with ease.
Key upgrades made to the Oregon 450t and Oregon 450 include user-selectable dashboards, enhanced track navigation, high-speed USB that makes it much faster to transfer maps to and from your computer, photo navigation capability and the 3-axis tilt-compensated electronic compass which is capable of showing which direction you are heading towards even when standing still – and this happens without having to hold it level. New dashboards introduced offer users the ability to customize the appearance of various pages on your Oregon, and among them include the geocaching, compass, stopwatch and elevation functions. Chances are if you fall under the hikers, cyclists and trail runners category, the enhanced track navigation will prove especially useful, as it prevents you from curling up under a rock and waiting for someone to rescue you should you get lost.
A couple of AA batteries are able to offer up to 16 hours of battery life on both models. Each of them will feature a high-sensitivity GPS receiver with HotFix, where it is capable of automatically calculating and storing critical satellite information, so that such information can be pulled and used in the future to calculate a position in a jiffy. Other features include 850MB internal memory and a microSD memory card slot that is good for holding photos and optional map data.

Logic Bolt Projector Phone
There has been a lot talk about the LG eXpo, a phone that has a pico-projector. However, CES last year had on display Logic Wireless’ Bolt projector phone. That phone is capable of throwing a VGA image on the wall that is 64 inches wide.
Of course, the projector is only one of the features of this phone that can run Symbian. It also has a touchscreen, as well as slots for two SIM cards.
It also has two cameras, one for the front and one for the back. I suppose that this is some design for the days when cellular phones will be all video-capable. Yeah, I’m still awaiting that day myself.
The Logic Bolt is available at, of all places, Sky Mall. It costs about $500, and that’s the unlocked price. I don’t know who wants this particular phone, as it doesn’t seem to have a carrier.
I’m going to venture a guess and say that this will be on display on CES on a little more than a week. If so, I would like to see how the projector fares against pico-projectors. If it can make the images more clear, then there might be market for this. As it is, it seems a little excessive.

Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness in the US
Folks living Stateside have plenty of cellphone options to choose from, that’s for sure. Well, with a myriad of cellphone operators as well as handsets available, one is spoilt for choice, and it doesn’t help that Sony Ericsson has just released their Xperia Pureness in this part of the world – touted to be the first handset in the world that comes with a transparent liquid crystal LCD screen. Not only that, it also boasts ground-breaking miniaturization technology in the battery, memory card and antenna for one truly jaw-dropping handheld. Folks living in the US can pick this up via Saks Fifth Avenue online (www.saks.com) and Sony VIP Shopping Service. Just make sure that you have at least a grand in your bank account to spare, considering the Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness retails for $990.
The Xperia Pureness has a rather aloof marketing presentation, where it is touted to offer “an alternative approach to life in the complex, digital age by refining the mobile phone to its most essentials functions – Talk. Text. Time.” We’re not too sure just how alternative your lifestyle is going to get apart from obtaining envious glances all around whenever you pull the Xperia Pureness out of your pocket, but hopefully Sony Ericsson will get its basics right – which are, talk and text. Aesthetically, this phone is extremely appealing, boasting hidden keys that light up only when touched, coupled with subtle illumination to indicate call and message notification.
Apart from that, you know you’re living it up when the new Sony Ericsson Xperia Pureness comes with the Pureness concierge service. This is the only truly localized global concierge service in the world, where members are supported from all walks of life via a 24 hour service in cities globally for virtually any kind of need. It does make us wonder just how much lazier one has gotten over the years. True, technology has made life more efficient, but we’re not using the saved time to attend to other more important things, instead of just looking around for opportunities to do more.

LGs new watch phone is Dick Tracy … and then some
Growing up a fan of Dick Tracy, I longed to have Dick’s cool watch radio phone which enabled him to communicate with headquarters. But in reality, the deployment of such a device has been left “wanting,” mostly do to reception problems due to analog cell systems. But with the advent of digital carriers and broadband highspeed wireless internet, the promise is now hopeful for not only improved cellular audio capability, but video capability as well. And that means, a video watchphone is now a reality. Well, I’m excited.

Aura BluNote
I’ve reported on Spracht’s products before, and they are well known for their Bluetooth products and accesories. The latest is the Aura BluNote, a portable wireless speaker that can stream music wirelessly from any Bluetooth device.
Sure, devices like these are a dime a dozen, but this is one that promises to improve sound quality. Considering that the speakers are “smaller than a breadbox”, it makes up for it using a “bass boost and stereo widening feature to create a three-dimensional soundscape”.

Nokia X6 gets Comes with Music
Nokia’s recently announced handset, the Nokia X6, looks set to take over the XpressMusic line by offering you up to 35 hours of continuous music playback before requiring a trip to the nearest power outlet. In addition, the 32GB of internal memory alongside a memory expansion slot clearly places this on par with the iPhone when it comes to being a portable audio player, barring the user experience, of course. It does claw some ground by including a slick 3.2″ finger touch interface though, boasting a 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio that is optimized for photos, videos and browsing. You can also connect to the Ovi Store directly, letting you remain connected to a maximum of 20 friends and virtual communities always through your homescreen. The Nokia X6 will retail for 450 Euros before taxes and subsidies, as the Finnish cellphone manufacturer prepares to get it ready for shipping come Q4 2009.

KDDI presents the iida Polaris cellphone robot
When I first saw the iida Polaris from KDDI, I thought the idea was to put your cellular phone in a ball like a hamster so it is free to roam about the room. Of course, that is kind of silly, isn’t it? It’s not like your phone is a living thing that wants to explore.
Of course, we live in a technological age where designers often make things simply because they can, and I was actually willing to believe that rolling is what the iida Polaris does. Sadly, my dreams of a cell phone hamster ball mechanism were shattered as I discovered that the ball apparatus only serves as a cradle, not a transport.
When the user puts the phone in the cradle, it begins a process of collecting data such as healthy food suggestions, business news updates, and weather information. The user can open the fancy lid on the Polaris and use the phone as a remote control in order to access their television.Review on the latest all gadgets , PC or computer hardwares, notebooks, netbooks, accessories, gadgets, mobile phones and video game consoles on the market
