Apple is currently gearing up its PR machine ahead of the launch of the next iPhone generation. American Beaty director Sam Mendes will work his magic in the next iPhone Ads. According to the same tipster that spilled this information, the next gen iPhone is internally referred as the Mammoth or N90.
One of the ads will feature a spot with a mother and daughter having a video-chat conversation using the new front-facing camera that the rumored next gen iPhone will have. Previous leaks and this new information basically confirms video-chat in the iPhone 4G/HD. WWDC starts on June 7, so we don’t need to wait for long anymore.
Today Yahoo! and Nokia have joined forces to create enhanced, online experiences that help you communicate and locate. The pair have been working together over the past five years on a number of projects, from launching Yahoo! Go Mobile on Nokia devices to Nokia devices’ ability to upload pics onto Flickr. This latest venture, their biggest to date, will see improvements to email, instant messaging, maps and navigation services.
Mobileburn has managed to catch the Windows Mobile 6.5 capable phone on video. The 1GHz phone will also have a 3.2MP camera and a full QWERTY-keyboard.
The LG Fathom will be released during this week, so we’ll know more soon!
During the coming two weeks we will be using the Nokia Booklet 3G and write a review on our thoughts on it. I’ll post many mini-reviews when I get them done, and will post a final review when my time with the Booklet 3G is over.
In this first mini-review we’ll cover the hardware and first impressions of the device.
The Nokia Booklet 3G comes with the following specs:

The latest Ovi Music version enables simple One Click Album Download. Now you can also preview a 30 second clip of the track before downloading it (please note that access to some features may vary based on your location and available services). To get the latest Ovi Music client, select Applications > SW update and download and install the update by selecting Options > Start update. This is available for the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic, 5530, X6, 5230, N97, and N97 mini.
In the image you can see both colors of the upcoming iPhone 4G/HD/4. I have to say that the white iPhone 4G looks really cool! This is the first time we’ll get an iPhone with a white front panel.
Apple will most probably announce the next iPhone generation on June 7th, so we still have to wait another 15 days before we get a confirmation on the features. Stay tuned!
