Would be 007’s of the world are united in awe today as a new spytastic cellphone is released not by Q or Mi5, but by LG.
LG have displayed their new ‘watch phone’ concept at the MWC in Barcelona.
While not coming to market the concept phone is sure to fire the imagination of all those still awaiting the much fated shoe-phone promised us by Get Smart. And while we are at it where are my under-water bubble cities? I need answers people.
After watching this video I say we start a petition to LG HQ to get these on the market. What do you say, would you get one?
Your friend got lots of music, video and photos that you have to have? Forget the laborious chores of yesteryear and just use your Bluetooth cell phone to bulk transfer on 802.11.
The new technique involves using existing architecture to ‘piggyback’ on 802.11 to allow bulk entertainment data transfers at short range without the need for cables or wires.
This may be useful for the synchronization of music libraries between PC and MP3 players, to bulk download photos to a PC/printer or sending video files from your phone to your TV/computer.

You would be forgiven for thinking this latest attempt at green technology had just escaped from 80’s teen flick Weird Science, but alas the movement powered device heralds technology of the future, apparently.
The Atlas Kinetic Cellphone operates on the same technology most consumers are more familiar with from Kinetic watches, namely it is powered by the use of “oscillating weight to power a mainspring.” Put plainly: if you walk the walk, you can talk the talk.
With Nokia having recently announced a recycled phone and recent news of portable solar chargers, green is the new buzzword in the blogosphere and this is sure to set tongues wagging.
While you may never have to worry about remembering to charge your phone, you may want to consider using your spare time typing code into your computer to create the perfect woman that will respond to your every whim. Oh wait.
With the whole world falling in love with Touch UI following the influence of the Apple iPhone it’s somewhat of a dissappointment that Finnish giants Nokia should release such an average update to the popular OS from their Nseries handsets such as the N95 and N82.
It looks like more of the same from Nokia but those enhused by sensual interplay of hand and handset the new UI smartphones should be able from late 2008.
Nokia have released there latest game which is a series of mini-games, that allows users to create there own unique games for the N-Gage platform. The Yamake game, short for you make the game, allows users of such phones as the Nokia N78 and N82 to create and share their personally designed games via N-Gage arena and by MMS N-Gage and S60 compatibles.
This early foray allows games along the lines of “quizzes and puzzles” so don’t expect Halo 4 just yet. For more info read the press release here.
Unless you have been under a rock you will now that everyone is talking about the new Google Android SDK. Will Google do to the mobile OS what they did yo internet search and email? Should Nokia Symbian based phones such as Nokia N95 and Windows based HTC TyTN II start waving the white flag?
