I’m biased since I own an E61i, but I’ll sell a kidney for the E90. 3.2 megapixel camera, 800 pixel wide screen, the thing is brilliant. The keyboard however is a little less than desirable, the…
Nokia N95 vs Sony Ericsson W950i
Aside from music playback capabilities, I’m not quite sure how these two compare. While Nokia N95 is the high-end all-in-one device, the Sony Ericsson W950i is a music-dedicated device.

According to Just Another Mobile Phone Blog, the large Sony event planned tomorrow will be for the unveiling of three new Bluetooth watches. One will be Walkman branded, the other two are not.

New USB cell phone antenna patent makes me question America's patent system even more
Samsung has filed a patent that would put a full size male USB port on your mobile phone, right where the antenna should be.
