MOTOROKR E8 Rocking Pics

It looks like Motorola has gone far and ahead with the MOTOROKR E8 project and there are loads of nice pictures that keep us in tune with the model’s evolution. Equipped with a reconfigurable keypad and haptic-feedback “Omega Wheel”, the 2GB musicphone should make our top ten favorites by Motorola and we are anxious to find out more about it. From what we can tell, it is quite pleasant to watch, showing off a sleek design, but that morphing keypad should also make it really pleasant to touch. We expect MOTOROKR E8 to be the entertaining destined handset the Christmas holidays are in desperate need for.

We couldn’t think of a more fit and worthy device that could help many of us enjoy the long awaited Christmas carols. There is a warning, though, as Motorola won’t have this Rocker get out cheaply. But you should think that the season is for giving and this is one handset you should be sure to live up to your money’s worth. All what’s left to happen is a winter’s miracle, so keep your fingers crossed for Motorola to make it work in time.

Blackberry Curve Sailing Nicely On Amazon

If there is a place where Blackberries should feel at home then the Amazon has proven to be it. Why does the climate make Blackberry Curve just blend in the landscape, you wonder? Nothing more than the incredible cost that should make you say calmly: “this is it!” The offer practically giving you BlackBerry Curve 8320 Curve Titanium for $-50.01 should take a load off your chest, although there are some left to struggle with. You should also be interested to know that the carrier is T-Mobile and the deal includes $125 of rebates.

Well, Blackberry is in fact a gift for the living and will reach the homes of some of the best of us, with a little help from Amazon this time. We welcome the offer and wish for much more minuses to come and make our days much happier. All in all, don’t wait for Amazon to dry out and take advantage of this package because it’s truly a blessing of the season.

The Cold is no Obstacle for Tomb Rider: Anniversary

It’s been a while since Lara Croft has captured the attention of any man willing to adventurously make the heroine face death time and time again and there is an event prepared by Eidos in order to point the magical moment out – Tomb Rider: Anniversary is coming in mobile format. You’ll be able to cheat death in celebration motion and still make it out alive and kicking. We should expect 15 levels of action and four different game modes. Naturally, it will feature cool 3D graphics and animation on headsets that should put the cherry on the top.

It is in fact a rather creamy package for all Tomb Rider fans to enjoy during the dull times and if you’re not included in that category, than you can always add it to Santa’s Christmas list – someone must like it out there. In any case, it’s a win-win situation and there are no reasons for complaint as Lara Croft will make the drop in December.

Some Like Things Small with Neonode N2

Interestingly enough, February wasn’t cold enough for Neonode to appear and so one of the smallest handsets on the market is getting ready for the big plunge during the holidays. It probably doesn’t want to pass unnoticed and this little marketing scheme was necessary. Well, we’ve been waiting for a year for the little guy, so it better measure up to our expectations. If you’re wondering about its features, you should be glad to know that Neonode N2 is a keychain-sized device packs a 2″ touchscreen, 2 MP camera, miniSD card slot and quad-band GSM/GPRS capabilities.

Sounds pretty enough and we are sure to say that its design is quite nice. We guess we praised the little guy long enough and it would be about time to not prove us wrong and show up already as the market is ready to receive it.

Audi Full Power Phone Concept

Although it sounds like a risky choice, Audi has decided that their car models may just miss a little something to make them mobile and so the Audi phone concept came to life. This is indeed one way of taking things into your own hands and making them fully active while you’re at it. This handset would be quite useful as it works as a phone with Wi-Fi and 3G UMTS tech, also has an MP3 player, a vehicle control interface, and works as an input device for the car’s navigation system. It has the ability to receive pictures of any potential intruders taken by the car’s on board camera, and has a built-in tracking system that should eventually take you to the bad guys.

Does this sound difficult to you? Well, at least it is a complex gadget to hold on to and we don’t doubt that the Audi technology will make it useful enough. So, just think twice when buying an Audi model car and wait for a while, because soon enough a helpful accessory phone could be part of the valuable package.

LG Viewty Taking Up The European Style

Good news are coming Europe’s way as LG-KU990 got tired of the Korean market and is folowing our ancestor’s path. LG is something you should look foreword to as it features a 5-megapixel Schneider-Kreuznach camera with manual focus, SmartLight technology, one touch Image Stabilizer and an ISO of up to 800. And the fun and games don’t stop here, as the Viewty beauty has a 3-inch touchscreen capable of handwriting editing and playing DivX files in widescreen format. Not only can it play video, it can also capture it at 120 frames per second.

This is definitely a premiere for Europeans that have every right to become frustrated each time cell phone innovations occur in the Asian side of the world. It is a time to be jolly, however, and we definitely speakfrom all our hearts when we say: full speed, Viewty!

Samsung F110 Adidas Phone Running By

It may not be the sleekest handset the world has seen yet, but it should get some heads to turn as the Adidas phone is speeding up to step out on the market. We’re not particularly thrilled about the slim Samsung F110, but maybe the following features are appealing to you: it’s a 2.5G GPRS/EDGE handset that packs a 2-inch display, a 2MP camera, FM tuner and MP3 player function. We won’t comment on the display for now because the pics don’t offer us much material to work on and we’d rather not be mean form the start.

However, Adidas doesn’t seem to do so well as far as cell phones are concerned and our advice is to stick to what they know best and that is sports equipment. We can only assume that Samsung F110 was developed for loyal Adidas fans that we’ll just jump out of their famous brand shoes when hearing that the Adidas phone will be out there soon enough.

Sony Ericsson W960i almost on the Market

After receiving the FCC approval, handsets usually get anxious to hit the market and they do so in no time. Sony Ericsson’s is somewhat of a mystery case, however, as it doesn’t seem to be getting anywhere. It is a shame, really, because this device is quite interesting, being a Symbian UIQ 3.0 based smartphone, meaning that its users will be able to customize it with third-party apps as they wish. Some of the masses might enjoy its well taken care of functions and might also desire to acquire it in any pricy circumstances.

But we’re on the stand by for the moment, as no one seems to be moving in any direction. We’re hoping for AT&T to be on the move, as the US market will surely be the first to welcome Sony Ericsson W960i. All we can do is wish it a fast and good slide and plenty of that special someone to enjoy it.

Sony Ericsson W890i News Holding Back

The rumors about Sony Ericsson W890i turned out to be true, as there are some live pics of the model although we don’t know much about it. What we can hint, however, is that it will give us a few reasons to start saving, this handset being 12 mm thin and featuring 3.2 megapixel camera and HSDPA support.

It is in fact a really slim device, slimmer than you can imagine and it will probably fit the liking of some people. We cannot say, however, when the official announcement will come, but at least we know that Sony Ericsson W890i truly exists. Also, there is no chance for this model’s cost to be revealed, not until the holiday season anyway when all good things will be available. So, just lay back for a while and do it productively, as some money will be needed in the bank for assurance.
