As part of Microsoft’s push, together with the Design Museum London and Council of Fashion Designers of America, to bring designer-label themes to Windows Mobile 6.5, Redmond has apparently recruited a slew of world-renowned designers to craft designer themes for the Windows Mobile 6.5 UI. If Isaac Mizrahi’s WM6.5 theme doesn’t float your boat, Microsoft…
Game Boy iPhone Case Most Brilliant Thing Since Invention of the Wheel
Yes, yes, and YES! Anyone that has been reading my posts for the past while here at IntoMobile will know that I love the old school games. I started out with the classic Commodore 64 and worked my way through Atari systems, the original NES… Oh, and how could I forget the ColecoVision. Classic. Naturally…
Sony Ericsson Booth Tour – Live from CTIA Wireless 2009
First off, the headline might be a little misleading. Sony Ericsson, for whatever reason, didn’t have an official exhibitor booth on the CTIA Wireless 2009 showfloor. The Japanese-Swedish phone maker has been going through a bit of a rough financial-patch recently. How that plays into the company’s decision to forgo any physical presence in the…
Samsung Booth Tour – Live from CTIA Wireless 2009
One of the gems of the CTIA Wireless 2009 show is Samsung. There’s a surprising lack of manufacturer and carrier presence in the Las Vegas Convention Center, and that plays to Samsung’s advantage. The Samsung booth, as always, sprawled across the showfloor and offered passersby a glimpse of the latest and greatest from Samsung Mobile.…
Motorola Booth Tour – Live from CTIA Wireless 2009 Las Vegas
Poor old Motorola really disappointed us at Mobile World Congress without a single device release, but since then they’ve released the the QA4 with a physical number pad and a virtual landscape keypad, the QA30 Hint, and the Stature i9. On top of that, Motorola was showing off some decent stereo Bluetooth headphones fresh to…
LG GD900 Style – Up close and personal with the ‘transparent’ phone
First of all, the LG GD900 Style isn’t really a transparent phone. LG is touting it as the world’s first transparent phone, but really it’s just the slide-out keypad that’s transparent. Still, it’s an interesting “feature” (maybe more of a gimmick). As expected, LG brought the LG GD900 Style to CTIA Wireless 2009. We had…
Hands-on with the HTC Snap
The HTC Maple that we saw leaked not too long ago has finally hit market as the BlackBerry-fighting HTC Snap. Boasting a full-QWERTY keyboard and a BlackBerry-esque trackball, the HTC Snap isn’t just a productivity tool, it’s also a (social) communications device. And, with the new “Inner Circle” email management feature, the HTC Snap puts…
Hands-on with the Samsung Magnet messaging phone
Samsung apparently couldn’t wait for CTIA Wireless 2009 to kick off in Las Vegas. A couple days before the trade show was scheduled to begin, Samsung blitzed the media with a slew of affordable messaging handsets. And then they blitzed us again with the Samsung Instinct S30 and Samsung Mondi the next day. Nevertheless, we’re…
LG Booth Tour – Live from CTIA Wireless 2009 Las Vegas
The CTIA Wireless 2009 Las Vegas show isn’t what you’d call a booming success. Attendance is noticeably down and the general atmosphere is just a little muted this time around. The Las Vegas convention center showfloor is peppered with more small- to medium-sized booths than the big, marketing budget-blowing extravaganza that we’ve seen in shows…
Lenovo OPhone Spotted Again… Features China Mobile Branding
We’ve been reporting new snaps and details on the Android-Powered Lenovo OPhone for some time now. Today, yet another image has emerged, which has some wondering if launch is imminent. The image above may very well be the best yet, as you can clearly see carrier branding on the device, in this case, China Mobile.…
