Adverts. Tell it like it is

funnies 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.

Help!!! 3G Mobile Broadband when visiting France

image 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

September for the N96

n96sep 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:

More Samsung phones in the pipelines

teaser_samsung What is the Samsung i908? Global Certification Forum have given it GSM compliancy. The Unwired have an article that guesses this is the North American variant of the Omnia. Hope this means everything is on target for the August release date. This certainly looks like one of the most exciting phones of the year.

HTC Diamond v iPhone 3G browser speed comparison

image Just been tipped off about a video from hdblog.it They have done a great side by side comparison of the Opera Mobile 9.5 browser on the HTC Diamond and the Safari browser on the Apple iPhone 3G opening web pages and rendering speeds. Its a very interesting watch and shows the two browsers are very similar in speed. Of course what we do not know is what speed the HSDPA network is operating at as the HTC Diamond is capable of HSDPA speeds of up to 7.2mb/s against the iPhone’s 3.6mb/s. Full video after the break.
