We are big fans of the Kinoma Play software here at Mobile Tech Addicts in fact, Gareth has just posted his impressions of the software in the reviews section. Well it is good to see that they have just released an update to the software to address a few issues and would you believe they have actually told you what those fixes are, not like Apples "Bug Fixes" statement. The update can also be done over the air, nice one Kinoma. Full details after the break.
EA have announced a boat load of new games coming to the iPhone really soon. The App Store has taken a lot of criticism since launch day about the quality of the applications and I have always thought it would take 6 – 12 months for developers to start to produce top quality apps and games. With this announcement at least it looks like we are going to see some great new games. The full list is Yahtzee Adventures, Mini Golf, Lemonade Tycoon, Mahjong, Monopoly: Here & Now The World Edition, SimCity, Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 09, Need for Speed Undercover , and The Sims 3. Also Spore should be in the App Store this weekend, Sunday to be precise. Full press release after the break.

BGR has come across some specs of the Prada II. The Prada I was easily one of LG’s prettiest phones but suffered from nightmarish text entry. The Prada II benefits from a full qwerty keyboard! The Viewty’s interface was excellent and combining that with specs after the break will lead to a rather tasty phone!
The Samsung Omnia is by far the best Windows Mobile handset they have made so far, we reviewed it a few weeks ago, well the downside for our US friends was again the lack of 3G bands for them to benefit from fast data speeds.
