Pocketnow have posted a YouTube video showing the latest build of Opera Mobile 9.5 and it does indeed support Flash. The video shows the YouTube site and when clicking a video it plays in the browser window and looks great. It has few other new features like a zoom bar. We have the video after the break along with links if you want to give the new version a test.
HTC seem to be giving the French sites a head start on the new range of Touch devices, first the Touch HD got its first hands on video and now the Touch 3G also. We have the video after the break, there is also a review of the device in French if you fancy taking a look.
I would like to present a couple of videos taken from the recent press launch at the newly opened Sony Ericsson Headquarters, Lund, Sweden on the 25th September 2008.
I need to point out that the Q&A video is very much a high level or corporate view of the management thoughts about the future.
Also that there is not a lot to be gained from it for the WM enthusiast.
Of more interest will be the X1 Demo, by Magnus, the man himself.
Grab a coffee, put your feet up and take note of the features, including that there is no accelerometer, but also confirmed that it will come with 384 MB RAM, on top of this there is to be an SDK release to develop and enhance the ‘panels’ concept, the impression is that SE are welcoming development and ideas from individuals as well as Third Party companies to the point that of the 9 panels 8 of them are customisable.
Apologies for the quality, which is not too bad but certainly not professional quality. It is the whole view of the unit and takes approximately 43 mins!
Once again, we are hoping to get our units shortly and bring you the unboxing and review as soon as possible.

Our friends over at windowsmobileitaly have been tipped off that the Touch HD will launch in Italy in December 2008 as an exclusive for Italian mobile operator TIM. The Price (still TBC officially) is likely to be 849 euros, which is the same as the Touch Pro. We have been told that it should hit the UK in November but we shall see and hopefully we will get some official confirmation soon.
Engadget have taken the time to record their unboxing experience with a series of interesting pictures. The device is complex for a media player and therefore it is hard to capture a lot of the features.
Lloyds TSB have launched a new mobile banking application that introduces a simpler access method that does not require the use of a WAP browser. Once the application is installed and set up all you need to access the service is a 4 digit pin code.

Within the Java based application you can view your balances, a mini statement of the last five transactions and transfer money between your own accounts. Transferring money to third-party accounts should be supported in later versions.
We had a demo version of this new application on a Samsung U900 Soul and the navigation was simple if a little clumsy as everything needs to be selected by scrolling through with the arrow keys. This includes when you wanted to ‘OK’ after viewing the mini statement you need to scroll down all the transactions to get to the ‘OK’ rather than pressing the OK button.
In my option whilst the actual application has been made simpler to access there are still improvements to made to the functionality.

PDA.pl have just posted a video of Gigabyte’s answer to Touch Flo 3D. It seems very fluid and moves around the OS very easily but also looks a little simplistic compared to the HTC version. You can see it in action after the break and make your own mind up on this one.
Check out these great drink coasters, based on the iPhone menu icons. Created by the guys over at Brazil’s Meninos design these icon coasters are a great gift for any iPhone addict. All your favorite applications are there, from Maps to Calculator, iPod and Settings. Each coaster measures 85mm square and is made from sturdy MDF plywood, then wrapped with a premium vinyl decal and durable varnish to protect the design. A thin rubber layer on the bottom keeps the coasters from slipping around. Sets of 16 coasters retail for $60 USD over at the Meninos online shop. Now just need to convince the wife these are cool.
