  • NLU Products, long known for developing protective covers for mobile gadgets, announced that they will exhibit their line of new devices at the CTIA 2009. The new protective skins are:

    1. BodyGuardz
    2. TatSkinz
    3. ScreenGuardz

    BodyGuardz, TatSkinz and ScreenGuardz complement handheld devices like cell phones, media players, gaming units, Macbooks and other items by helping provide for a longer lifespan for exterior hardware through custom-cut, non-intrusive protection. The products are removable and require no special care or maintenance.

    BodyGuardz, the company’s flagship product, consists of a thin, transparent scratch-resistant layer of the same material commonly used to shield the front of automobiles. The removable skins are cut specifically to fit handheld products such as Blackberries, iPhones and iPods, adhering directly to the devices without leaving sticky residues. The thin material protects device screens without impeding touch-screen functionality. BodyGuardz for handheld devices are now available for US MSRP $24.95.

    TatSkinz provide handheld devices with protective capabilities similar to BodyGuardz while offering stylish, original designs that add personality to the consumer’s device. TatSkinz are available for a wide range of handheld devices, including most cell phones, and allow for regular functionality with specific cuts for the device’s ports. TatSkinz are available for US MSRP $14.95.

    ScreenGuardz cling to handheld device screens without impeding touch-screen functionality, enhancing the interface and experience while providing protection for the device’s most sensitive exterior hardware. The protection is especially important for touch-screen devices where nicks and scratches can impede regular practicality. ScreenGuardz for handheld devices are now available for US MSRP $11.95.

    It is not really surprising to note that the iPhone is one of the most used mobile gadgets in the world today. Aside from being the most popular phone preferred by consumers today, selling over 17 million phones (as reported last week) seemingly justifies this claim.

    The iPhone now accounts for 50 percent of mobile Web traffic from smartphones in the U.S., according to an AdMob Mobile Metrics report released this morning. Over the past six months, the iPhone has taken share from Blackberry and Windows Mobile. In August 2008, the iPhone made up only 10 percent of mobile Web traffic from smartphones. During the same time, Blackberry’s share has gone from 32 percent to 21 percent (with the Curve and the Pearl coming in stronger than the Storm), while Windows Mobile has taken an even bigger hit, declining from 30 percent to 13 percent. Palm is also down to 7 percent from 19 percent six months ago.

    The only other smartphone operating system that is showing gains in mobile Web usage is Android, which has captured a strong 5 percent share just three months after launch. And that is up from 3 percent in January. The gains shown by the iPhone and Android show what is possible when phones are built with fully capable browsers and support a rich array of Web apps.

  • Mobile gadgets and phones seem to have gone beyond the world of communication and messaging. At least that is what this latest report from comScore is trying to tell us.

    comScore reports that the number of mobile game downloaders grew 17 percent from November 2007 to November 2008 when 8.5 million people, or 3.8 percent of mobile subscribers, downloaded a game to their mobile device.

    “The rapid growth in smartphone adoption in the United States has provided a boost for mobile gaming, as 34 percent of those downloading a game in November did so using a smartphone,” said Mark Donovan, senior analyst, comScore.

    “Last year, not one smartphone appeared in the top 10 devices used for mobile downloads. This year, six out of 10 are smartphones, excluding devices with smartphone-like functionality, such as the Instinct and Voyager, which also make appearances.”
