Back in May, we talked about the Sony Sountina and its release in Japan, but now we’ve gotten up close and personal with the glass speaker at IFA 2008. Milena has sent over some great shots of the omnidirectional speaker, which is truly part sound device, part piece of art.

We had the opportunity to spends some hands-on time with Lenovo’s ThinkPad X200 recently, the company’s latest ultraportable and the smallest of the X-series notebooks.  With a 12.1-inch, 1280 x 800 WXGA display and choice of 2.26GHz (P8400) or 2.4GHz (P8600) Intel Core 2 Duo processors, the X200 is just 0.8-inches thick.  It’s also being compared [...]

First thing I noticed is that in the hand, despite the swollen dimensions, the second-gen iPhone feels just as, if not more, svelte than its [...]

Sony Ericsson’s MBS-100 is disconcerting. It sits there, looking as though it might sprout legs or roll away at any moment.

Several hands-on iPhone 3G reports from after the WWDC 2008 Keynote are out, and as you might expect they’re all saying pretty much the same thing. Despite the few extra millimeters thickness over the old iPhone, Apple’s newly slimmed edges disguise it well and the plastic - which is a concession to the numerous wireless [...]

Sprint and Samsung’s answer to the iPhone is the new Instinct, and they are not kidding when they say it is a contender. The device is scheduled to be made available on June 20th, but that has not stopped our own Vincent from getting his hands on the device over at our sister site PHONE [...]
