Wondering what the experience is going to be like on Friday when Apple makes its long awaited iPhone Software 2.0 available? Well, wonder no more, Paul Thurrott has got his hands on a near-final version of iPhone Software 2.0 and iTunes 7.7, and he shows you the install experience as well as some of the MobileMe and Microsoft Exchange integration pieces.
Was lucky enough to join the team at msmobiles on Saturday and talk Windows Mobile with Edward and Mickey Papillon from The Cell Phone Junkie. Had a good time and it looks like this may become a more permanent arrangement. You can get the podcast from MSMobiles or download it directly here. Show notes after the break.
If you are looking for a new top of the range Windows Mobile device, chances are you’ll be considering the HTC Touch Diamond and possibly the Samsung i900 Omnia. So you may be wondering which of these two devices is best?
Luckily the guys over at GSM arena have put together an extensive head-to-head review of the Diamond and the Omnia and although they struggle to come up with a difinitive answer as to which one is best, looking through the review should help you make up your own mind.
Anyway, it’s nearly impossible to give a conclusive judgment as to which of these two fine PocketPCs deserves your money better. The Samsung i900 Omnia and the HTC Touch Diamond are both excellent choices with their own set of advantages and shortcomings. The good thing is they hardly overlap, so getting your priorities right is all you need to make the right choice.

Given the success Asus has had with their ever evolving Eee PC it seems only logical that other companies jump on the bandwagon. Acer have the Aspire One and the french Blogeee.net has been Beta testing it. The site is french but thanks to the power of Google translation all can be revealed to the English speaking nation. Also there are videos and photos for covering EVERY angle.
GSM Arena have done a rather tasty comparison review of two rather similar smartphones. Its long, thorough and extremely well done.If you are entertaining the idea of an upgrade to either of these phone, this is a must read.
The LG Secret (LG KF750) was released a few months ago and it’s proven to be a popular phone. This will be the third LG device that we have reviewed recently so I am keen to see what this high-end non-Windows Smartphone is capable of.
The Secret is certainly a good looking phone and one that you’ll probably want to show off to all of your friends. There’s a touchscreen and built in touch panel with haptic feedback, it seems that more and more phones have some element of touch screen action these days.
Here’s our unbox to have a look at while we’re getting the review sorted:

The BBC have released a beta upgrade to the brilliant iPlayer website where you can watch BBC TV from the last seven days, the new interface is much slicker and also there is an iPlayer mobile beta site too, I have just been playing around with it on a Windows Mobile device with Opera 9.5 and it looks great but I haven’t managed to get any video streaming without error just yet.
