Phone Arena has a thorough review of the Samsung Omnia. Plenty of delicious hi res pictures of check out along the way and they seem to cover almost every phone feature. They do manage to dig up a couple of problematic areas and it might be a useful to see a couple of the possible short comings of this phone.

Check after the break for the full list of fixes along with a link to XDA-developers who are hosting the Rom for your download pleasure.
That’s right the jailbreak/pwning software for Windows users running the iPhone 2.0 software, has been released.

Full details and download links after the break.
The guys at crackberry.com have got their hands on the latest Blackberry but this one is a first. The Blackberry Kickstart 8220 is a flip phone type form factor never seen before in the Blackberry range. Originally branded with a device model number of 9100, this has now changed. The BlackBerry "KickStart" is now the 8220 and will feature WiFi, while the BlackBerry "SeaWolf" is the 8210 and will feature GPS.
Its barely announced but Treocentral are giving one lucky person the opportunity of winning a GSM Treo 850w. Why am I telling you? I have my guess of when exactly the Treo 850w is being released in and my fingers will be crossed right up to September. The 800w is getting mixed reviews Stateside, however that is an improvement over recently reactions to their ageing product line.
Looking for small business web development near me, I spotted an interesting article at the Windows Mobile Blog which explains in quite a bit of detail the process involved in deploying new Windows Mobile OS’s along with updates etc and why it takes so long before we actually see them on devices. You know like when they announced Windows Mobile 6.1 way back in February and we are still waiting for updates in July 5-6 months later. You can read the full article after the break.
Gizmodo has a few funny adverts that will raise a smile for some of the new and old tech on the market. Nice to see some recurring themes here. These are the highlights of a competition run recently over at Gizmodo. I think No.2 was robbed of the No.1 spot.
Over at MTV Muliplayer spoke to John Koller the senior marketing manager for PSP indicated greater things for the GPS implimentation:
Sony will launch a GPS add-on for the PSP early next year. Alongside it, there will be gaming applications.
I am visiting France for a family holiday but would really like to be able to stay online while I am away, I have been looking around for the best way to get 3G access but it seems it is going to be a very expensive thing to do. I have a 3 USB Modem and they have no roaming agreements so would charge £3.00 per MB for data which is very very expensive. Does anyone have any cheaper solutions or is it possible to get a pre-pay mobile broadband set up while I am in France, my information is that you can only get mobile broadband in France by signing a 12 month minimum contract which doesn’t help. If anyone has any solutions or suggestions please leave a comment. Thanks
Whilst the n95 is no bad thing, in fact, a pretty funky phone, I couldn’t help a yawn slipping out as I read this brief report about the n96. Nokia seem to be releasing a new phone every single month and you can barely keep up with them. The n95 has been around for a while and I believe it is possibly the most popular phone around the UK at the moment. A bold statement, but count just how many there are. N96 is coming whilst all those n95 fans are still in contract so will probably disappear quietly. Specs after the break:
