  • Nokia N97 Mini Thumbed Down

    The brand may be a popular one but that doesn’t mean that they are immune to criticized handsets. That is what perhaps best sums up how the Nokia N97 Mini is as far as reviews from the critics are concerned. And among the main reasons for the thumbs down given to the Nokia N97 Mini is traced to its awful keyboard and downsized memory.

    Up and close, the Nokia N97 Mini is a dead ringer for the N900. So if you compare both phones, why would anyone prefer the other one? In short, there may be little resemblance if no improvement at all if you are considering the newly approved N97.

    The only thing going right now is what other features and pricing the Nokia N97 Mini has planned. Hopefully though there are more features to look forward to like perhaps a touch-screen feature? Keep your fingers crossed!

    Just as we had learned at the end of the July, T-Mobile has put HTC’s Touch Pro2 handset up for sale for $349.99 with a 2 year contract.

    This device features a Qualcomm 528MHz processor, 3.6-inch touchscreen, full QWERTY keyboard, 3.2MP camera with auto focus, GPS, WiFI, a microSDHC slot and Windows Mobile 6.1 with TouchFLO 3D.

  • Altek’s T8680 camera phone

    It seems that a handset manufacturer by the name of Altek has come forth to announced their 12megapixel touting T8680.

    As you can see, this phone is as close as you can get to being a digital camera while still retaining calling features. Coupled with its 12MP sensor is a 3x optical zoom, xenon flash and video recording features making it a perfect alternative to an actual digital camera.

    Other features include a 3″ touchscreen, Bluetooth, USB, TV out port and tri-band 900/1800/1900 GSM/EDGE capabilities. Unfortunately, there is no word if Altek ever plans to bring this phoen to North America but, as always, we’ll keep you posted.

    The rumormill has one again begun, this time hinting at a release date and price point for Apples much rumored “iTablet” . News comes to us from the China Times that says the Tablet will be shipping ot the public for $800 this October.

    Additionally, they have told us that Foxconn, Wintek and Dynapack will be the device’s primary manufacturers. Make note that back in May, Wintek was the company whom supplied Apple with a bunch of 9.7″ touchscreen displays, see a connection?

    Let’s just hope that we get an official announcement from Apple soon so we can lay these rumors to rest once and for all.
