Eldar over at Mobile-review has put up a nice review of the Maemo5 OS running on Nokia N900. He goes through every little detail of the operating system with both pictures and text.
This write up will focus primarily on the software department of the N900, as well as its capabilities (by the way, another phone in this line-up, set to launch during summer 2010, won’t differ from the N900 in terms of hardware). And the best way to break down an OS is to run through every feature an app it has got on board.
LG just announced their newest phone arrival, the LG GD510 (aka Pop). They claim that this device is the most compact touch screen phone with a 3″ screen.
To make it so simple, they have removed the WiFi and 3G radio chip. Both in my opinion a “must have feature” in todays touch screen phones. Instead of those, they have added a solar-panel on the back of the phone. The phone should be released in mid October in Europe, and at the end of October in the US.
Check out the PR video and pictures after the break!
The popular sharing service Dropbox just released their own iPhone application. The application will require you to run iPhone OS 3.1. Both the application and the Basic dropbox service(2GB storage) are free of charge.
Is this a good PR stunt, or did LG release some ultra high-tech phones out of their lab by mistake? Either way, if your phones serial is any of the above, CONGRATS, you’ve just won $10,000 :)
I somehow missed the announcement of LG’s BL20 yesterday, but better late than never ;) This phone will be a cheaper version of the LG BL40 Chocolate Touch.
The BL20 Chocolate will come with a 2.4″ QVGA screen, ARM9 processor, 5MP camera with AF, Bluetooth and a microSD card slot.
Apple today released info about the success of their App Store. So far 125,000 developers have developed 85,000 applications, that have generated over 2 billion downloads since the launch of the Apple App Store a little over a year ago.
What will the figures be when the iPhone gets released in China in a few days.. Guess there will be a huge amount of new developers, applications and downloads. We’ll see how that turns out in just a few days!
