Nokia USA website relaunched, selling a lot of unlocked devices
Point your browser to nokiausa.com because it looks completely different right about now. The rumor I got about a site relaunch was partially accurate, just 1 week off. It certainly looks cleaner, less Flash is always a good thing and best of all you can buy unlocked devices! The N95, E61 and E50 are some…
Seesaw cellphone concept
Here’s another concept device called Seesaw. It sports the basic phone features, plus the high contrast OLED display and the camera with flash light — all packed in the really thin form factor, which is further emphasized with the device’s numeric keypad and soft keys sitting nearly flush with the surface.

Universal Solar Charger from Brando
While I’m still waiting to try out Orange’s wind-powered charger, other eco chargers are already available.

Italian author taps out 384-page novel on a cell phone
Now that’s what I call weird. Apparently, Italian author Robert Bernocco has wrote his first novel “Compagni di Viaggio” on a cell phone! You got that right, the 384-page long book was completely written on a cell phone keyboard, and he used his commuting time to accomplish this (again, weird) task. It took him full…
More iPhone details emerge; Keyboard disappoints?
It’s only four days left and we have more information about the iPhone from the people who actually had a chance to try it out. Some of them discover a bit disappointing lack of features of the Apple’s handset. Without further adieu, let’s start:
Nokia N99 concept
Yet another Nokia N99 concept is here. Pretty ugly designed, but the model number promises to deliver a bunch of features. As we don’t have any data about it, we’re adding our 2 cents. Let’s start… First the screen should display a higher resolution — let’s say VGA (640×480). Next, camera should grow by at…
