Mozilla is planning on bringing Firefox Mobile to the N900 in the next quarter, despite the Finns’ native browser already being built on Mozilla’s framework.
TechRadar managed to nab some time with the new browser, and here are some exclusive screenshots of the new browser, previously codenamed Fennec, running on Nokia’s new flagship device, the N900.
The buzz around the new announced Nokia X6 is quite big although there are devices like the N900 and the N97 Mini which are drawing more attention. However, the buzz is there for a very good reason. The Nokia X6 is the first S60 5th Edition device of the new announced X-Series and can be seen as an evolution of the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic. With the combination of features and services provided with the device, it will definitely appeal to a very large audience.
The candybar touch screen device has a very fresh and trendy look and it really aims to reach the younger generation. Not only are the looks appealing for young users but also the service it comes with. You will get a full Comes With Music license so that you can download as much music as you want, totally legal and without any additional costs. Nokia really encourages the user to download as much music as possible with putting a 32GB built in memory into the slick X6 as well as Wi-Fi. So you can download thousands of song without even worrying about your storage. If 32GB isn’t enough, you can top up the memory with a microSD card. Due to the microUSB port being situated at the very top of the device, you can transfer your music or any other data easily between the X6 and your computer.
Kinoma announced that its flagship product, Kinoma Play, is now available for Nokia S60, the world’s dominant smartphone platform. Nokia S60 users can now enjoy the best way to find, play, and share media in a beautiful, fast, easy-to-use application. More screenshots and video demo’s of Kinoma in action after the break.
It would appear that Windows Mobile 6.5 has a superb new feature – Group Messaging!
This will allow users to send sms and email messages to multiple contacts easily. I’m sure that business users of Windows Mobile will love this new feature as they will be able to message numerous employees just by highlighting them in the normal scrolling contact list.
With only a couple more weeks left until WinMo 6.5 is officially released it will be interesting to see what other new features may crop up.

It would appear that Vodafone here in the UK have a fine selection of devices “coming soon”.
As well as the Nokia N97 Mini & E72 they have a couple of great offerings from Sony Ericsson, The Xperia2 and Satio. These handsets are all going to be in great demand but the one im looking forward to testing out is the HTC Tattoo. We have covered the Tattoo previously and I think it will be a great option in particular for PAYG customers wanting a low cost Android device.
All the above devices are shown on Vodaphones website as coming in October apart from the Xperia2 which should be November. Watch this space for future updates.

From the get go, we knew that Palm had an uphill battle to get apps into its App Catalog. Not an easy task when you have a brand spanking new mobile OS, yes, you guessed it, webOS. And other platforms having the upper hand with the number of apps doesn’t help either. All this – it would appear – is about to change.
The flow of new apps into Palm head quarters has been overwhelming, and many developers have been submitting their applications for consideration. Unfortunately, for them and for Pre owners, they never got a response, and some developers have wonder about the status of their submission. The problem is that there have been so many apps submitted that Palm is having trouble keeping up.
But they finally got a response via Palm’s developer discussion boards from none other than Palm Developer Community Manager Chuq Von Rospach, who posted the following:
Mobile-nova has unboxed the Sony Ericsson Xperia X3 (Rachael), and taken a hand full of pictures. Nothing close up so I’m a little sceptical. The unit doesn’t quite look finished but have a look through the pictures and see what you make of it:
Spb Quad is about as simple as it gets when it comes to puzzle game. Much like Bejeweled, Quads relies on you ability to spot a combination quickly and plot ahead for higher scores. Of course you can just play it blindly and hope for the best as most do in Bejeweled. There are a whole host of simple little arcade puzzles but non come quite so close to the brilliance of Bejeweled.
Carphone Warehouse staff are "rigging" mystery shop customer feedback after claims customers are deliberately scoring them low marks, resulting in loss of bonuses.
Carphone Warehouse removed its staff commission scheme in July, replacing it with a higher monthly wage and target-related bonus earnings.
Stores must also achieve a minimum of 80 per cent from its internal mystery shopper scheme, ‘World Class Service’ (WCS).
Look at those prices! £1.20 a minute. Admittedly, networks are making an effort when it comes to EU calling, but if you plan on venturing further afield then you are going to wince to find out just how much you are going to be charged to call home to whisper goodnight to your child when you arrive at the other end.
