We have already seen an early version of a Windows Phone 7 device from LG but could this new leaked image be the updated version or even the final product?
It certainly looks pretty nice sporting a new design of the three ‘oh so important’ hardware keys below the screen .
The image was ‘allegedly’ posted onto Flickr by a French Microsoft employee. Not sure if he still works there!
With Microsoft gearing up for there next ‘7’ event at the end of the month could this LG device be the one they will be using?
Either way it looks sweet.

Those Tinkerers over at XDA-Developers have managed to pull this image that might just be the HTC Mondrian, a rumoured device mentioned in the offical ROM leaked out last week. XDA-Developers have also pieced together specs from an ongoing analysis of the registry and RGU files. So far they’ve spotted references to a 4.3-inch WVGA (480×800) display from Optrex and a 1.3GHz QSD8650A/B Snapdragon from Qualcomm.
Earlier today we broke the news that the HTC Wildfire has been announced. Last week I had a decent hands on with the device and what I can tell you is it is real sweet. It’s no contender for the Legend, Desire or Nexus One but it is not meant to be. The HTC Wildfires target market will be young adults who may currently be using a feature phone. The Wildfire will be a budget Android device, a nice stepping stone to a smartphone.
Sporting HTCs Sense UI, the Wildfire is as user friendly as we have come to expect from HTC. Hardware wise we have some decent specs on this cost effective new device. I say cost effective as that’s what I have been told by HTC. We will have to wait and see what prices the networks charge but if I was a gambling man I would bet the HTC Wildfire to be £15-£20 per month on a contract. We will have to wait and see.
Below is a quick video I shot of the HTC Wildfire just to give you a brief insight. We will let you know as soon as we get our hands on a review device. I don’t think it will be long!
Last week I was lucky enough to be invited to a top secret location for an introduction to the HTC Wildfire. After using this new device I can honestly say it’s a beauty. Kind of a mini HTC desire available in four colours. The Wildfire is designed to be a low cost Android device aimed at the younger generation of today. Will it be a hit? It certainly should be. No word yet on price and I think this will be the deciding factor.
I also managed to shoot some video of the HTC Wildfire and we will bring you that later on today.
Check out the official press release below.
It is still early days for the Apple iPad but there are already some nice Twitter applications available and the one I have been using the most is Twittelator. Although I have been using TweetDeck on both my PC and iPod Touch up until recently I decided that it was time for a change when my iPad arrived. After speaking with one or two people that had already used Twittelator my mind was made up and I spent my $4.99 and downloaded.
Paying for a Twitter application is not something I have done before, but now I have the iPad I have become accustomed to forking out a little more money for decent apps. Of course the iPhone/iPod apps still work on the iPad in X2 mode but for the best quality you really need an iPad specific one.
Is Twittelator worth $4.99 and will I be sticking with this application? Read on to find out.
This is the second Bluetooth car kit that Orange have kindly sent me to play with and review. Although this particular one is made by RIM and sold as a BlackBerry car kit you do not have to have a BlackBerry to use it. It will work with all Bluetooth enabled phones.
I recently also reviewed the Parrot MiniKit Slim so lets see how this BlackBerry one compares.
Read on to see the verdict.
Today not only marks the availability of Office 2010 for organizations, but also the immediate availability of Office Mobile 2010 for all Windows Mobile 6.5 based phones with an earlier version of Office Mobile FOR FREE! via Windows Phone Marketplace. Office Mobile 2010 for Windows Mobile 6.5 includes new mobile versions of Microsoft Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote and SharePoint Workspace. These new mobile versions offer a more touch-friendly layout and greater ability to work with documents on the phone – like editing PowerPoint presentations.

Word is that Froyo will be 450% faster than the current Android 2.1 system, and according to a source of TechCrunch who provided this screenshot, will also include native USB tethering as well as the ability to turn it into a mobile WiFi hotspot for sharing your mobile internet connection with other devices. Android 2.2 is also expected to come with full Flash support and will finally allow Android users to install apps on the memory card instead of just limiting them to the phone’s memory.
News has surfaced about the Motoroi release here in the UK. Pocket-lint has apparently gotten confirmation from Motorola that this particular Android handset is indeed coming to the UK, and will come with better features than the Motorola XT701 that was launched in Taipei. Similar to the Motoroi for Korea, the UK-bound model will sport an 8-megapixel camera with Xenon flash, 720p video recording capabilities, but ups the ante with a faster processor, and Android 2.1 as its OS possibly with MotoBLUR.
No specific date was mentioned, but it is expected to be released within the next couple of months. The question at the back of our mind is, due to its delayed release, is anybody still interested in the Motoroi?
Those nice folks at Orange have kindly sent me a rather big selection of Bluetooth car kits to try out. First on my list for testing was the Parrot MinKit Slim which as the name suggests is rather slim. I have used Parrot in car products before and actually owned the predecessor to the ‘Slim’ which was not as slim!
Is this new version any good. Well you will have to read on to find out.
