Nolka N90: When the Chinese force a Nokia N95 and Sony Ericsson P990i to reproduce
Not much to say about this blatant violation of copyright laws. It has a 2.6 inch screen with 260,000 colors, 1.3 megapixel camera and weighs less than 85 grams. Too bad it doesn’t have a QWERTY keyboard, it might not have sucked so hard. [Via: Just Another Mobile Phone Blog]
LG KG280 lets the river of chocolate flow to everyone
The LG KG280 is exactly like the KE800 except for a smaller screen and different keyboard. Without a contract you can expect to pick this guy up for a little under 150 Euros. It will be a triband device (900/1800/1900) with a 262,000 color screen and be available in either black or “wine” red. [Via:…

Nokia can now print your camera phone pictures and mail them to your house; Europe only
 Take a picture on your camera phone and if you like it you can have it sent to (almost) any address in Europe. It doesn’t stop at pictures either, you can get a mug, shirt, pillow cases and other “fun items.” Olli-Pekka Kallasvuo was not kidding when he said he wanted to make Nokia…
Helio’s Ocean will now integrate with Flickr and YouTube
Helio has this thing called “Helio Up.” Think of it a set amount of space for you to upload whatever it is you recorded at that party last night. On Monday things are changing, pictures can be sent to your Flickr account and videos can be sent to YouTube. This is effectively an American Nokia…
Video: Nokia N95 inspired drunken singing
I can’t confirm if this guy was drunk or not, but honestly … you have to be pretty damn wasted to create something like this. [Via: Darla Mack]
Nokia sued in China for making typos
More than 30 Chinese characters appear to be drawn incorrectly on some Nokia devices. This has upset Zhang, previously a teacher and he is now asking for a little under $42 in compensation. Why so little? I have no clue. Why did Nokia mess up in the first place? You try reproducing what looks like…
Iran tries to turn off protests by turning off text messages
Always destroy your enemies ability to communicate and they will crumble. Who knows whether or not this will stop the protests in Iran, what we can establish is that SMS is very powerful and not just 160 characters of gibberish, unlike Twitter’s 140 characters of sheer nonsense. [Via: Textually]
EDGE finally doesn’t suck, thank you Steve Jobs?
Apparently network speeds have increased for AT&T customers. Perhaps they read the early iPhone reviews that seemed to praise everything except the browsing experience over cellular. We’re looking at upwards of 200 kbps here, I’ve never been able to break 180 kbps as a T-Mobile customer. [Via: Engadget]
