‘Phones’ Stories

G700 and G900 by Sony Ericsson are touchscreen phones for the masses

They are kind of being billed as digital organizers, which sounds like code for “just short of a smartphone” but they are pretty nice phones, and if they have a reasonable price their features and cheap price should make them appeal to the public. Both phones have a 2.4-inch touchscreen and a numeric keypad and are in a candy-bar form factor.

LG KF600 and KF700 spotted in Barcelona, sort of

Vincent hasn’t actually been able to get any real images of the phones as they technically haven’t even been announced yet, but they’re the ones that put up billboards of the phones all over the city, so Vincent got a pic of one of those which shows both handsets. The KF600 is basically the LG Venus, and the KF700 is a full touch-screen phone with haptic feedback.

Von Zipper Snow Muffs headphones that keep your noggin warm on the slopes

In a not so terribly original move, Von Zipper has released some headphones that are built into ear muffs, the things that keep your ears warm when its cold out. The catch is that these don’t come with their own bracket that keeps them on your head, instead they attach to whatever pair of ski goggles you might be wearing. Read The Full Story

Garmin Nuvifone is the phone of my dreams

I could go on about how similar to the iPhone this phone is, but I won’t, I’ll simply summarize it by saying that I have an iPod Touch, and I love it, but I think this Garmin Nuvifone would more than fill the smartphone void in my digital life. It has a proprietary Garmin OS, HSDPA, Quad-band GSM, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, and a 3.5” touchscreen (not sure if its multi-touch, but that definitely is the same size screen as the iPhone).

Turkey leg telephone

Does anyone here recognize the name Dick Wolfsie? Yeah, me neither, but I like his sense of humor as apparently he’s the one that requested this phone be made for his Thanksgiving show. Someone literally built a telephone into a turkey leg. You’d think that with today’s technology they could have at least made it wireless, but I guess not. I don’t know what these Telco turkeys are going to do when they switch all the phones over to digital, analog just isn’t going to cut it for much longer. No word on price or availability as it appears it was a one-off custom job. [via gadgettastic]

Three new phones from Toshiba coming soon

In order, there is the G910, G710, and G450. Sure, the 910 and 710 have keyboards which clearly mean they are smartphones, and thus interesting, but I kind of like the 450 the most out of all of them. Read The Full Story

E-Ten announcing new media phone in Barcelona called the V900

E-Ten, the makers of the GloFish phones is apparently diving head first into the media-capable phone market, something they haven’t had much of a hand in, in the past. This particular phone will have support for all sorts of wirelessly streamed media including DVB-T, DVB-H, T-DMB, DAB, and probably 3G. Read The Full Story

Sennheiser’s latest addition to the Bluetooth headset pool

Obviously if it’s coming from Sennheiser, the output audio is going to be amazing, but how is the input? With dual microphones configured in a way that should allow the headset to reduce or completely remove background noise, it should be pretty good. Read The Full Story

A taste of things to come: Android phone came making use of what’s available

Its called WiFi Army and it’s a real life FPS that you can play on your own or against other players over WiFi. It uses WiFi, GPS, a Camera, and Google Maps to offer up a real life first person shooter game inside your city. Right now its in beta, but they are talking about different types of armor, weapons, all sorts of cool upgrades that will be purchasable. They are also talking about making it into a full on social networking site to the likes of bungie.com. Read The Full Story

Ringboxx customizes your home phone ring tones

People go a little overboard when it comes to ringtones, even I have in the past, but the Ringboxx has gone too far. I honestly don’t think your home phone needs customized ringtones. Read The Full Story

Helio Mysto hitting mass market today

So the Helio Mysto, the second phone Helio stole from Samsungs top of the line Ultimate Edition line, is finally hitting the market so everyone can get one. If I may remind you, they had a 2-day sale of them in just a couple stores for the two days right after Christmas and then that was it. Read The Full Story

Seagate D.A.V.E. Technology portable hard drive

So I stumbled upon this at one of the shows surround CES and thought it was pretty cool and I’m pretty sure I’ve never seen it or anything like it before. It looks like a fairly run of the mill external, pocket-sized, bus-powered hard drive, but its not.
