We’re accommodating, understanding sorts here at SlashGear, and so we’ll let slide the fact that Sunno’s S880 looks in no minor way like Sony Ericsson’s Idou smartphone.  Instead we’ll concentrate on the fact that the Chinese company is claiming that the S880 will dual-boot between Android and Windows Mobile, each OS sharing the handset’s capacious 3.6-inch WVGA display.

With augmented reality (AR) taking off as smartphone hardware ramps up to support the sort of real-time processing they demand, it’s about time the first such app for the iPhone made it through to Apple’s App Store.  Seemingly meeting the Cupertino approval council’s grade where others have reportedly failed, Metro Paris Subway is the handiwork of a French team of developers and overlays information about Paris businesses over a live view of the surroundings as seen by the iPhone’s camera.

It’s looking like devices have a way of showing up without anyone’s consent now a days. At least, the consent of those who make said gadgets. And now that the Magellan RoadMate 1700 has graced the spacious universe of the internet, we can chalk up another victim. This time around we get some GPS-loving action, and while many of you may be thinking there’s too many of these things out there on the market already, this little piece of guided technology is just amibitious enough with its standard features, that it could start pulling you away from those other devices.

There's been plenty of images of the Nokia N900, or Rover if you prefer, up until this moment in time, but most of them just seemed to lack that "official" flare. That kind of picture that we all look for, especially when it comes to the alternative "blurry" cam photos. And here we have the official photo of the Nokia internet tablet, which is slated to have an official release date next week, during Nokia World. But, here's the image we've been waiting for, minus a full keyboard, but it does show some awesome headphones.

If the 2.5G of the 5530 XpressMusic doesn’t appeal, and you want both 3G and some PND goodness in your new touchscreen Nokia, then the company’s latest bundle may catch your eye.  The Nokia 5800 Navigation Edition takes a standard 5800, subjects it to a few cosmetic tweaks, and packages it with Nokia’s car kit and lifetime drive and walk navigation with voice-prompts for Ovi Maps.

MIUTech’s HDPC smartphone/MID hybrid looked, frankly, a mess in its first iteration, and a subsequent redesign or two did little to improve things.  Happily the company have returned to the drawing board and come back with this slick little monster, freshly updated with some appealing specifications – full QWERTY, a 4.8-inch 1024 x 600 touchscreen and Intel Atom 1.6GHz Z530 processor – and a promise that, distributors aside, it’s all go for a release.
