Acer shows new Windows Mobile 6.5 handsets

the-acer-f1-conceptAcer  has shown off prototypes of its next slew of smartphones at an event in London, with the pick being F1, a full touchscreen costing up to £445 and released in the second half of 2009.

The F1 (its codename, with the proper title to be applied closer to launch) will sport a high resolution screen (which we assume will be HVGA) with home screen widgets and gaming capabilities.

It will also use a 5MP camera with LED flash, and has four simple buttons at the base of the screen for navigation, including call / reject and a home screen link. More details after the break.

O2 helps busy family lives with O2 Joggler

image Press Release: O2 today announces the O2 Joggler, a first-of-its-kind device which will transform the way families manage their busy lives. Taking the place of all the notes traditionally placed on the fridge door, the O2 Joggler is always on and can be used by the entire family. It sends text message reminders which mean every family member will know who needs to be where by when. The O2 Joggler launches in early April.

The O2 Joggler has been built on the insight that family life is hectic and can be difficult to manage. Appointments, birthdays, school runs, work deadlines and more can all be stored on the O2 Joggler’s calendar, which will text handy reminders to family members’ O2 mobile phones.

HP iPAQ Voice Messenger unboxing

Just a few weeks ago we had a look at the HP iPAQ Data Messenger, the review of which will be live in shortly. This week we’re looking at it’s little brother, the HP iPAQ Voice Messenger. This model is smaller and lighter than the Data Messenger and has a 20 key compact QWERTY rather than the sliding QWERTY keyboard.

The HP iPAQ Voice Messenger

 

The Voice Messenger has a candy-bar style form and runs Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard (Smartphone) so there’s no touchscreen. However, we do get integrated GPS, WiFi and a pretty fast CPU coupled with decent ROM and RAM capacity. The front is gloss black and the back and sides are made of polished silver-grey metal which really looks nice if a little Blackberry-ish.

We’re reviewing the Voice Messenger at the moment alongside the Data Messenger and we should have those review here for you soon. For now, here is the HP iPAQ Voice Messenger unboxing video which you can watch to find out more.

First and foremost, you want it to be a phone. You’ll appreciate how easy it is to quickly dial a number on the 20-key keypad.

You can instant message from your phone with your network of friends and colleagues with integrated Windows Live Messenger. And when you need to quickly silence your phone, simply push the convenient ringer/sound switch on top of the device. Familiar Windows Mobile 6.1 Standard Edition means you can skip the “new phone” learning curve.

Palm Pre release could be getting near

Palm Pre release could be getting near

image According to Crunchgear, starting next week, Sprint and Palm are inviting press to a series of webcasts to showcase the Palm Pre.  Fared Adib, Vice President, Device Operations & Logistics for Sprint, and Matt Crowley, Product Line Manager at Palm, will be the ‘hosts’ for the webcasts and they promise to show the three key differentiators that Sprint and Palm can offer with the Pre.

Still no mention of any European availability or network choices so the best guess right now is that we will not see the Pre launched outside of the USA for quite some time yet.
