Although we still wait for the Deutsche Telekom owned mobile operator to finally roll-out its 3G network, they keep promoting their current offering. And while we’d like to see them offering the same free activation deal when 3G network starts working, potential BlackBerry users won’t even need nor use all the benefits of the “3G…

Photos: Sony Ericsson K850i vs Nokia N82, which one will you pick?
It’s holiday season and that’s the right time to get a new camera phone. If you can afford it, you should go for the handset with 5 megapixel camera and a Xenon flash. Two devices come to mind instantly – Sony Ericsson K850i and Nokia N82. While the former is certainly easier to carry around…
Video: Samsung U900 FlipShot tour
Like the Samsung U900 FlipShot, but are unsure whether that’s the right device for you? Its somewhat strange, Nokia N93-like form factor and that 3 MP camera with camcorder function may sound tempting, but the question is – just how good it is in a real-life situation.

Brief: Nokia N95 8GB North American Edition: 100% Confirmed
Fellow Nokia/S60 blogger friend of mine Mark Guim who writes at The Nokia Blog is also a reseller. He called his dealer to see if this N95 8GB NAM is legit and he can confirm it is. If he’s saying it’s true then I have no doubt in my mind it is. Now if someone…

Fring updated its VoIP application just in time for holidays.

RoverPC P6 – the Windows Mobile 6.0 smartphone from Russia, with love
We don’t see many handsets coming out with native price-tags in Rubles, but here’s a little gem from RoverPC. The Windows Mobile 6.0 Professional-powered RoverPC P6 is fairly slim (15.1 mm, to be exact), pretty slick, and definitely likable. It’s not the greatest WinMo offering, but it ain’t that bad, either. As the Professional moniker…
Fix for Samsung BlackJack II flaw – no more keypad number shortcuts in menu
The GPS-toting (now unlockable) Samsung BlackJack II is surely one slick WinMo handset. If you’re the proud owner of a BlackJack II, we’re sure you’re enjoying all that the phone has to offer. That is, unless you enjoyed taking advantage of those number-shortcuts on those menus that Windows Mobile loves to use. The Windows Mobile…
Analog shutting down with TDMA next year
Ahh, the good old days of analog… Remember your first mobile phone? Chances are, if you’re old enough to buy your own mobile phone and pay the bill, you may remember using the good, ole’ analog networks of yore. Ericsson’s T28 World phone was our first mobile phone and it was a pretty little sucker…
