I recently came across the Dolce & Gabbana Razrcellphone and decided to scope it out a bit, after all the Motorola Razr, was the top leading cellphone in the US. Well to say the least this phone is definitely for the fashion driven and fashion label slaves. This phone is definitely eye-catching with its Liquid Gold color housing, and even the box it came in was gold-colored and opening is quite neat too.

And here I was complaining about the G1 not receiving Google’s precious voice recognition app. I’m okay with that now, now that it’s inevitable that the G1 runs Flash 10. First of all this is huge, considering the Flash deficit, both the iPhone and Blackberry face. Second, did you see the video clip from the Adobe Max Conference……this is full on interactivity: zooming and panning. This takes web browsing and gaming to a whole new level. Now if only I could get a release date!
Verizon Wireless is apparently doing one-on-one demos for a select few people pre-Storm release, and tomorrow I’m going for one of these hush-hush meetings. They really don’t want the word to get out about this. It’s going to be a
I went to the Sprint website to browse for a smartphone for holiday gifting. The options are a bit limited with this carrier for a good all around phone and the two best ones that I saw are coincidentally made by the same company, HTC. Check out this link for full list of Sprint’s smartphones.
 Apple is getting sued again by Long Island resident, Avi Koschitski claiming that Apple was and is aware of hairline cracks in the iPhone’s casing, and yet they are still selling them to the public. Shame on you Apple! The pictures look pretty bad and if it were my phone I would be one angry customer as well.

What do I say to that? Sign me up! Is that even a question to ask. What a silly survey.
I think most people, except for the super-rich, won’t mind saving a few bucks to see some ads. We have to watch them on TV anyways right? So why not on the cell phone too….

First looks can be deceptive, so it seems with the clamshell BlackBerry Pearl Flip 8220. Many feel that BlackBerry should have gone with a Slider form factor and not Flip, as sliders are more popular in a full keypad market.
Quite a large phone even when folded it is a far cry from the rest of the phones introduced by RIM with respect to looks. The design is a combo of a dignified upper half and a cheaper looking lower half. Matching classy design for the two parts would have made it look and feel great.
Could be Google’s most innovative and groundbreaking app to date and it goes directly to the iPhone completely disregarding Google’s own Android based G1, no questions asked & no looking back. This app allows users to say a search query into their phone and have it transcribed and returned as a Web search.Â

Some of you might remember the piece I wrote on Nokia a few months ago. Well fast forward to the end of 2008 (can you believe the year has gone so fast?) and the fact that Nokia just announced it’s going to ramp up R&D for US market. Well, it’s about time people. What were you waiting for before?Â
