WMExperts have posted a quick look video at the Iris Web Browser that runs on the WebKit rendering engine which powers the iPhones Safari browser. Unfortunately it looks a bit slow for prime time use but does render pages very nicely which is a big plus on a Windows Mobile device. Check out the video after the break.
Brando, who have just launched this 6x Zoom Telescope for the iPhone 3G. Now I am not being funny here but who is going to want one of these or for that matter risk being laughed at for using it. Apparently you can overcome the short comings of mobile phone cameras and now take some great shots. More pictures after the break.
Various reports are popping up about the impending availability of the Samsung i900 Omnia on Orange and Vodafone in the UK. According to Coolsmartphone Orange have it in stock now and Vodafone will shortly follow. This is good news as this looks like a really great Windows Mobile device. We should have one next week for review and maybe this device will sway me from the iPhone 3G.
A 1.3 version of the DSTwitter has been released. Where did it come from? Its only been a couple of months since the first incarnation hit the net. Mashable has directions for installation. Of course you will require one of the R4 style cards that are now under threat from Nintendo.
Palm Infocenter have come across some specs of the Treo Pro. There are a couple of software apps that should enhance usage, obviously depending on your operator. Check it out after the break.
Mobility Today have got their mitts on a bunch of high quality pictures of the upcoming Treo. Call it the 850w or the Pro it’s still a mighty fine looking device with some specs to match and easily my device of choice. A couple after the break.

WMExperts have managed to find some more great pictures of the Palm Treo 850 or Palm Treo Pro. This is looking like a sweet device for the front facing keyboard lovers out there. Shame it is only a 320 x 320 screen and carries a lousy 2 mega pixel camera, but hey we cannot have everything. Oh and where have I seen that glossy plastic curved back before? Spec and pictures after the break.
Pictures have surfaced today reported to have been leaked by a Palm training site of the much rumoured Palm 850 series GSM device. This is the GSM version of the CDMA only 800W but does seem to have had a bit of a makeover. I really like the black colour scheme of this phone, makes it look very professional. If these are real this must be launching pretty soon. Check out the pictures after the break.
