All The Latest Cell Phone, Gadget and Tech News

Remember Microsoft’s Pink project? Well it looks like the folks at Redmond are working hard on future Microsoft phones. Although Steve Ballmer did say a number of times that Microsoft will not launch its own phone line, it looks like those were just words said in order to keep everyone else that’s making Windows Mobile phones happy.
Nothing is confirmed just yet but it looks like a couple of Pink phones have been leaked, the Turtle and the Pure. The phones should be presented in a few months at CES 2010 but Microsoft will not launch them until later when Windows Mobile 7 will be ready to dazzle the masses.
And I hope you’re sitting down for this one, as there’s one more rumor that seems a lot hotter. It looks like Microsoft is preparing a response to Apple’s first tablet. Microsoft will create its own tablet. Will the gadget be revealed at CES 2010? Will we see Microsoft launch it before Apple does? Nothing’s certain so far but the future Microsoft tablet will be based on Microsoft’s Surface technology.

Remember the LG GB270 that was launched in India earlier this year? It was cheap and good, but the LG folks decided to make it prettier by redesigning it. With that being said, the new style is a bit different (for the better) and it now comes in 2 colors: pink and black. Other than that, the rest of the features remain the same. Sadly there is no information about the release date or price of this new LG GB270 version, but we’ll keep you updated!

Earlier today we let you know that Alltel was gearing up to launch the BlackBerry Tour for $199.99 on a 2-year contract. Now, we have another phone set to hit the service except this one is a bit less feature intensive.
The above phone in question is the Samsung Glint, a low cost handset for the budget conscious consumer that features a VGA camera, stereo Bluetooth and comes in pink and blue versions.
The Samsung Glint is reportedly on sale now for Alltel although it has yet to appear on the carrier’s website.

Well sure it’s a Microsoft phone you’ll say, it will run some sort of Windows Mobile version on it! That’s true but what I mean is that the phone appears to be Microsoft-branded. Could this Pink smartphone project be the first Microsoft phone? Microsoft denied more than once that it’s working on an own mobile device but what if that changed?
Sure maybe Microsoft will not call it a Zune phone in which case the company was awfully right when declaring that no Zune phone is going to be created soon. The Pink phone is said to run on Windows Mobile 7 and we can expect some sort of custom UI on top of the regular OS. Pink is also said to be a Sidekick-like phone and it could be manufactured by Sharp or Motorola. Unfortunately we don’t have any hot details about it!
A lot of questions come to mind but we shall leave them unanswered for now. We’ll be waiting for someone to leak that Pink-related ad campaign that Microsoft is reportedly working on.

We’re still recovering from that earlier Zune phone news and now we have to deal with another Microsoft project, the Pink, which, from the looks of it, it’s a smartphone. Now the Pink has some features available. The phone will have a 3.5-inch or even larger multitouch display, an ARM v6+ processor, OpenGL ES 2.0-compatible graphics, 256MB of RAM and 1GB or more of storage. We can also expect a 3 megapixel camera, GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, a compass and an accelerometer. Think we’re done yet? We have even more leaked details for you! NVIDIA’s Tegra platform is also going to be part of the Pink project. TI’s OMAP 3 platform and Qualcomm 8k are also listed. Will Microsoft use all three of them?
That’s how Windows 7 Chasis 1 smartphones will look like but we can’t say for certain how will Microsoft bundle all those specs. According to previous rumors the Pink is not a phone but a project meant to bring Zune software and services to Windows Mobile. Should we assume that Windows Mobile 7 will come with lots of Pink features inside? Let’s hear it Mr. Ballmer? What will it be?

It was just yesterday that we found out how Apple and Verizon are cooking up a new iPhone for 2010 ready to run on Big Red’s CDMA network. And now this: Microsoft and Verizon are working on an iPhone killer. Or did everyone misunderstood the whole Apple and Verizon thing? According to certain sources Verizon is in talks with Microsoft about that whole iPhone killer. Codenamed project “Pink” the phone will be designed by Microsoft and it will come with lots of multimedia features and, of course, a large touchscreen. The new phone is going to run on Windows Mobile but it’s going to be a tweaked version. So what say you Microsoft? How are you going to explain to everyone else that’s using your OS the new phone? After all everyone knows that Microsoft will not develop an own phone right?

After we’ve seen that almost cute Zune HD concept, we have more Zune-related news which also concerns the cell phone business. First and foremost, no Microsoft is not launching a Zune phone.
The new Pink service is about to be revealed as people say that Microsoft is talking to important ad agencies regarding this Zune software for mobile phones project. We don’t have the exact details so far but it’s suspected that Microsoft is going to make the Zune the preferred media software for all Windows Mobile phones. Does that require ad agencies to promote it? Is this such a big announcement? Is anything bigger in the works?

We all know about the Sony Ericsson W595 mid-range Walkman phone. But while that is normally available in the default design model colors, here is something that can somehow sway it to the favor of women.
Sony Ericsson has further expanded their Walkman range of mobile phones with the release of the latest color variant of their new slide model, the Sony Ericsson W595 Pink which joins the existing blue, white, grey and black editions of this sliding Walkman phone line up.
The Sony Ericsson W595 pink offers exactly the specs, technology and music features as the rest of the color variants in the range but exchanges the outer casing color for a new sassy, sexy light pink finish.
With the Pink Sony W595 users get the best in music on the move with its built-in Walkman MP3 player, and they can download their favorite music straight to their phone with T-Mobile’s Mobile Jukebox. Owners of the Sony W595 Pink can surf the internet on the move with web n’ walk or use the phone as a modem for their laptop to go online.

How about getting a Sony Ericsson W350 for that special Valentine of yours? What if it would come in Pink? Would you get one? Well the picture here shows a Soft Pink version of the W350, so go ahead and get it. It will probably sport the same features as the regular W350 but then again you’d be buying one because of the pretty pink color it comes in. And while we’re thinking of pink handsets ready for Valentine’s Day, what phone would you pick? The pink Samsung Instinct or the pink Sony Ericsson W350?

With all the smartphones we’ve seen in the last couple of months the Samsung Instinct feels like such an old phone despite being launched only last June. For a while it was quite a cool phone but then the iPhone came and then the G1 and the Storm. And we’ve had quite a few other interesting phones in between these ones.
Today we have a new Instinct from Sprint. Well technically it is still the same device inside, only with a different pink case to cover everything. Just in time for Valentine you say? Well yes, just in time! Will it have the same problems we’ve seen with the earlier model? That remains to be discussed later.
What will changed is the price. For a limited period of time you will get the pink and the black version for just $99 with a two years contract and a $100 rebate.

How about a pink iPhone 3G I ask you? And I am not talking about a special case to be applied over that black or white case of yours! No, I am talking about the pink iPhone 3G that’s up for grabs on eBay. The pink phone has all the standard print on the back. Is this case made for Apple or is it just another great homemade modification? Are we going to see colored iPhones arriving at Macworld or will Apple phones keep arriving in black or white. If Apple can have cases manufactured in different colors for the new iPod nano why shouldn’t it make colored iPhone 3G cases too?
As we speak the bid is up to £310.00 and there are 18 hours left to bid on it. How much do you think it will sell for?

We heard Microsoft is entering the phone business with an actual device next year. While we’re still waiting for more details we get another Microsoft rumor. The bad Windows maker has a Pink product which will get a weird technology combo from the Zune and from the Danger Inc.
The Pink, whatever it is, might arrive at CES 2009. By then we should figure out if this Pink rumor has anything to do with Microsoft’s phone.

Nintendo has a new DS Lite console for you. It comes in white and it has a Pink Ribbon model on the front cover. The ribbon is the symbol of support for the breast cancer awareness and research causes. For each purchase of the new DS Lite Nintendo will donate $5 to the Susan G Komen for the Cure cancer charity. Nintendo has promised at guaranteed $100,000 but the total donated amount will surely exceed that amount.
Considering that in Japan alone it’s estimated that 50,000 DS Lite are sold each week, Nintendo should donate quite a big sum.
