It was only a matter of time before we started seeing the new wave of BlackBerry mascots… and this time, it’s the new BlackBerry Storm mascot! As you can see in the image above, the mascot is clearly a Bell booster, and the custome is kitted out with all of the Storm-esque features you’ve come…
Naples Police Uncover Mobile Phone Gun in Mafia Raid
Not that this is a ‘light’ story, but I like to throw down something a little out of the ordinary on Fridays. To that end, I came across this story of a .22 caliber pistol housed in what looks to be a mobile phone. The gun which is made up to look like a mobile…
Madonna divorces Guy; I divorce my N95-8GB
Yup, today Madonna was apparently granted a quickie divorce from (now) former husband Guy Ritchie. They had been married for a good few years, and whatever happens, you hope the both of them will be happier now. Well, in a (kinda) similar sense, I have divorced my N95-8GB fully now. Cracks (not literally) started appearing…
The Bacon Case Wraps Your iPhone in Tasty Deliciousness
Time for some more end-of-weekend light-hearted content. Have you ever wanted to wrap your iPhone in bacon? Of course not, and as much as I’d love the taste and smell of an iPhone covered in the breakfast favorite, the practicality of it all simply wouldn’t work…for me at least. However, there is a new iPhone…
No Mobile phone conversations on the train – please tell me it’s true!
We’ve all been there – having some inordinate bore tell their friend/family/significant other that they are “on the train” – well done Sherlock, next you’ll be telling us where you are going – oh, you just have… Well that might be coming to an end soon, since one train company is planning to cover its…
NetLingo: word of the day: Phonesia
NetLingo really is one of my favourite sites on the InterWeb – they seem to have a word for everything. Take this for example: phonesia The affliction of dialing a phone number and forgetting whom you were calling just as they answer (see also: ohnosecond). “Phonesia” also refers to the inability to remember where in…
The most amusing way you have ever seen a Mobile damaged
Ok so this is just a little bit of fun – I am NOT suggesting you go out there and find innovative ways to destroy your Mobile device…! A long time ago, could even be 10 years now, I witnessed a great comedy mishap that ended up in what was at the time, a very…
Turning Mobiles ON before getting off the Plane…
Hoorah, it’s time for ‘Ben’s pet peeves’ number #147….. How many of you have been on a flight where the cabin crew make you aware that you are not to turn on devices until you leave the plane? And how many of you have also seen people turning on devices the second the plane touches…
Pomegranate NS08 Busts onto the Scene
Just when you thought the mobile game was too crowded for another major player, the Pomegranate NS08 has made a huge, juicy splash. Not only does it incorporate standard GPS, internet browsing, music playing, and phone functions, but it also makes a mean cup of coffee. There’s plenty more, but you really have to see…
BlackBerry Bold in… denim?
So what do you do when that BlackBerry Bold with faux-leather backing needs to take a casual Friday? Why, swap in the denim-clad battery door from CNN. $50 is a little steep for a back cover, but well worth it for a corporate suit looking to stick out from his uptight exec colleagues. It’s currently…
