Star Trek cosplayers take note: soon you may be able to have your own, functional communicator thanks to Patria Aviation Oy.  The Finnish company has been developing flexible fabric antennas which, when tapped, link up with the Iridium satellite phone network; two-way voice and data communication is supported, while there’s also a GPS chip to report physical location.

Sometimes a gadget comes along that is so pretty that, when you realise it has a spec-sheet more barren than the Sahara, you can’t help but tear at your chest and roar.  LG’s GD510 “Pop” isn’t quite so bad as all that, but it’s a handsome 3-inch touchscreen phone – the most compact ever with such a screen-size, they say – with a brushed aluminum body that throws out most of the things we take for granted in today’s handsets.  WiFi we can live without, but a handset lacking 3G?  For shame!

After Samsung’s 12-megapixel “AMOLED 12M” was leaked yesterday, the company is back today with a full press release and details of the optical zoom-packing touchscreen handset.  The Samsung SCH-W880 will arrive in Korea from early in October, where users will be able to marvel at its 3.3-inch WVGA AMOLED touchscreen and gasp in glee at its 3x optical zoom.

Samsung’s original Instinct surprised many when an eager public turned it into one of Sprint’s most successful devices, so it’s little surprise that the carrier are now expecting similarly impressive things from its successor, the Instinct HD. High-Definition is certainly one of the more popular buzzwords around right now, so you can’t argue with Sprint’s branding onus; the big question is whether the device itself lives up to the billing. Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

Having made its first official appearance on an LG engineering site last Wednesday, the LG Chocolate BL20 has finally got a press release and product page to go along with the specifications.  Smaller – and less complex – sibling to the BL40, the BL20 will arrive in the UK on O2 in Q4 2009 with a 5-megapixel camera with autofocus and flash.

Motorola are seemingly clearing their plate to focus on their upcoming mid- to high-end handsets, with the news from China being that the company have outsourced production of all of their entry-level models.  According to the United Daily News, any handset costing under $150 moving forward will be built by a third-party, potentially over 40 million devices per year.

Don’t let the sober looks fool you; Samsung intends mischief with their new Corby PRO B5310 and its non-sliding (but still QWERTY-toting) Corby TXT B3210 sibling.  The company bizarrely decided that the best way to promote the two social-network focussed devices was to give four of them to well-connected Italians and then stage a massive paint fight.  No, we don’t quite understand it either, but you can see the video after the cut.
