i-mate devices
It’s no secret that i-mate is betting heavily on its range of Windows Mobile powered devices. Targeted to business users and savvy consumers, i-mate’s devices combine the intriguing design and smartphone features. Yet, I still prefer Symbian-based devices. 🙂
Sharp booth
Sharp has some really interesting Communicator-like devices, including the recently launched Sidekick 3 – something that could be a communicator device for the young people. We know Sharp as manufacturer of both Windows Mobile and Symbian-based devices (for NTT DoCoMo).

Neonode N2
I had a chance to get my hands on the new Neonode N2 phone. Powered by Windows CE (yeah, it’s not a Symbian, but it’s interesting device nevertheless), with weight smaller than 70g, this very small device is very practical to carry around. Input interface – touch, just like the iPhone. The only thing I…
Nokia booth
You should’ve seen the Nokia’s booth after the announcement of new devices. The most touched “object” was… E90 of course. The new Communicator really deserves all the praising. As soon as you touch it, you feel the quality. That’s also the case with the N95… Anyway, here are the photos.
Sony Ericsson booth
It’s all about vibrant colors on Sony Ericsson and “I (Sony Ericsson) Something” message. All their smartphones are there, plus recently announced additions to the Walkman and Cybershot families. What can I say except: “I (Sony Ericsson) their booth”. 🙂
