Despite the fact we are talking more about 3G iPhone shortages around the world, it would appear that Orange has just struck a deal with Apple and they will bring the iPhone to the UK. For now only O2, another UK carrier, has the new iPhone for the Brits but Orange is closing in soon. They are said to have the iPhone on display this October.

Rogers did announce they were the first to deliver the BlackBerry Bold. When was that supposed to happen? Well today! Did it happen? Not as far as we know.

The FCC delivers again. We have another phone that has made its way through to the FCC and this time we have a Christian Dior phone, the Dior Mini. It doesn’t look that good from where we’re watching. And as for specs in won’t offer that much either.

Samsung has great plans for their upcoming range of handsets. Samsung likes to experiment various stuff when designing their phones. We’ve seen lots of models, some better looking than the others, and according to some of Samsung’s new cellphone patents, we are going to see more cell phone versions.

The “Mobile phone” (above) it’s similar at first view with the Omnia or the F490. But this one is a sliding phone with a complicated keyboard hiding beneath the screen. Turning all those pieces in various positions will get you a different handset every time. I would assume there are various functions available as well since every new position transforms the mobile phone into a different machine.

The dual display, dual touchscreen phone is a clamshell which has two screens. There’s no actual keypad although on of the screens can be turned into that. LG has a similar idea in the works and we’re sure to see more gadgets like that. As we speak, a dual display dual touchscreen laptop is being created out there.

A different clamshell from Samsung is also patented. Remember the Optimus Maximus or Pultius? How would you like an OLED keypad? Every time your screen would change, so would your keys to give you better control on what you are doing.
The last patent talks about a handset with a flexible display. That would transform your phone intro a netbook or a multimedia device with a bigger screen. I wonder how a flexible display would actually work out. Do we have the technology to accomplish that successfully already?

When these interesting handsets will materialize it will be our pleasure to keep you updated.

Amosu created the most expensive iPhone in the world, the Amosu Ultimo Diamond. The Amosu costs just $177,300. I hope it comes unlocked with that price.
This iPhone has the body encrusted 1179 diamonds weighing 16.18 carats. 660 18 carats diamonds are placed on the lower part of the rear lid while the Apple logo has 61 similar diamonds. Buying this expensive iPhone will get you access to the international all day VIP-service Concierge within one year.

We’ve seen so far the amazing work of iPhone Dev Team who were able to break the iPhone out. Application freedom comes after jailbreaking the iPhone but unlocking isn’t just available yet. The Pwnage Tool was released twice already. The 2.0 version was very soon corrected by the 2.0.1 version.

Just in case you don’t own a Mac, there a Windows Pwnage Tool version for the 3G iPhone, iPhone and iPhone Touch. The Windows version will also jailbreak any of the iPhones or the iPod touch, but it won’t unlock the 3G iPhone yet.

We’ve heard about a colored 3G iPhone version back in April and May when everyone thought it would be cool to make us think they have inside info about the next iPhone. Most of those predictions turned out to be elaborate photoshoped pictures which never came through.

A (PRODUCT) RED is supposedly going to be launched around the holiday period to support the victims of AIDS. A part of all (PRODUCT) RED 3G iPhones sold will be redirected towards victims in Africa.

This one is a rumor too, so we’ll treat it accordingly. Better wait until around Christmas to see what happens!

Sprint-Nextel is going to sell a lot of cellphone towers to TowerCo. What’s funny is that after selling about 3300 towers they will actually own a small number of towers. What do I mean a lot? I mean about 3300 towers worth about $670 million. Not that bad considering they seem to desperately need money for paying off debts.

Motorola has a new PEBL phone for the Korean market. The new PEBL will be offered by SK Telecom and it will feature fast 3G connections with HSDPA speeds of 7.2MBps. Other than 3G there’s not much really: a 3.5 mm headset jack, an Mp3 player, a 2.0 megapixels camera and Bluetooth connectivity.

So if you want to get a purple PEBL, head on over to Korea and check with SK Telecom. If not, might as well wait for the next Motorola release.

I wonder how much time did pass between the moment Apple’s Steve Jobs announced the 3G iPhone and the moment a porn king realized how much money they will make in the iPorn iPhone business.

Fast 3G data will get you going. Lots of Internet browsing and live-streaming video watching will become regular iPhone chores. iRoticNet knows that and it’s no wonder they plan to create an adult video destination for 3G iPorn.

LG is the newest mini-laptop creator out there. For some reason they want in on the Eee-like success business. They might just have what it takes to offer a decent mini-laptop out there. And they chose the perfect partners, MSI which might just be the best Eee competitor to date.

LG & MSI will combine their forces to create the first LG netbook, the X110. We are looking at a 9 inch panel, 120 GB, 2GB of RAM and the good old Windows XP in the shadows. That’s it? No ? GPS? After all LG knows how to implement such features.

Despite their intentions of making it in the mini-laptop business, LG will not create a cheap, affordable machine. They will choose a better design and material quality. A move like that will definitely push prices and it’s rumored an LG mini will sell from $625 to $790.

The LG KF300 or Wine phone, launched earlier this year will arrive in Europe and Japan. If that’s the phone you were waiting for, well cross your fingers than. It might just hit your country soon.

The Wine is a fashionable tri-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE cell phone. It has two displays, as any respectable clamshell. The main display is a 2.2 inch QVCA while the external is a 1.3 inch 128×160 pixels. Just enough for your needs isn’t it? Other features? A 2.0 megapixel camera with auto focus, Bluetooth, 10MB internal memory, media player, microSD slot for memory expansion and that’s about it.

The LG Wine is a good looking phone for some but nothing more. Pricing and availability will probably follow, but better check with your local carrier for more details on that.

Who said that only Apple made money off the 3G iPhone? Sure they did good, but so did other people too. And of all the carriers partnering up with Apple for a fix, AT&T should be at the top with the most profits. After all, they have been for more than a year now involved in the whole Apple phone thing.

So check out the picture? Do you like what you see? Do you have that deja-voodoo feeling? Are we looking at a possible competitor of the iPhone? Does it look similar to the Omnia or Instinct from Samsung?

The W1 is maybe a possible future Walkman series phone from Sony Ericsson. We’ve seen lots of mid range Walkman phones just yesterday. For those that need good music and smartphone features all rolled into one, the iPhone W1 could be the perfect choice for you. When it arrives. If it arrives…

The W1 looks good on paper. It should be a Windows Mobile phone with 32GB internal memory. There’s VGA display, a 6.1 megapixels camera and WVGA video recording. Of course there’s WiFi b/g and TV out. Did I miss anything from that picture? Well read it for yourself again then!

Looking forward to see more details about this phone. And I am sure I am not the only one waiting in line.

Here’s another phone from Motorola. Where did it emerge from? Well the FCC spotted it and it’s our duty to mention it. The EM330 Motorola handset will be known as the Motorola Ischia in the future. Motorola seems not to be giving up their fight. They aren’t doing that great in the mobile business lately but they keep sticking to it. More and more models are rolled over.

The Ischia is an entry level clamshell phone. Looking at the specs we see a VGA camera, support for microSD memoru cards, FM radio. Not exactly the smartphone here but the Ischia will definitely run applications like calendar, alarm, calculator and various Java Games.

Like everyone else, Apple posted their earnings for the last quarter of a profit about $1.07 billion, or $1 share, on sales of $7.46 billion for the Q3 of the fiscal year. Despite that Apple’s stocks dropped as people fear Steve Jobs’s health.

Apple managed to sell almost 2.5 computers, over 11 million iPods and over 700k iPhones. That’s before the 3G iPhone hit the market.

With shortages reported everywhere in the US yesterday, some were estimating the new iPhone shipments to arrive sometime in the following weeks. Well it appears Apple’s supply line from Asia is working better. Important Apple shops in New York and California had both iPhone versions in stock today. Well technically there are three iPhone versions, the 8GB Black, the 16GB Black and the 16GB White. Exactly the colors AT&T had suggested a long time ago.
