With the mobile accessibility option optimized for iPhone its probably safe to say your swish new cream with Times Roman card isn’t impressing anyone.

Anyone with a touchscreen UI can understand the ongoing frustration of two handed operation. Enter Mitsumi with their haptic input device allowing users perform operations single-handedly on the back-mounted control center.

In an apparent shakeup of naming sructures, Sony Ericsson looks to be updating its model names for future releases. Though they will still feature a letter followed by 3 numbers, the new system will indicate the series, market, version and form factor of the phone.

As you can see from the diagram:
*The first letter, C = Cybershot, W= Walkman, S= Snapshot, X= Xperia.
*The first number indicates the models overall position in terms of high end vs low end, 9 being the highest.
*The second number seems to indicae the version of the phone, i.e same series but updated as per K800, K810, K850.
*The final number is the form factor. 0,1 and 2 for Candybar, 3 and 5 for Slider, 6,7 and 8 for Clamshell and 9 reserved for ‘other’ form factors.

Readers that were a little unsettled by last weeks’ Tattoo phone may find the new elastic, self-cleaning Nokia Morph nanotechnology concept a little more palatable.

The result of a collaboration between Nokia’s Research Center and the University of Cambridge, the morph concept demonstrates a future of flexible, stretchable and translucent electronics with self-cleaning surfaces.

Just when you thought the LG watch phone was the definition of cool the morph concept envisages a wrist phone that frankly puts LG well in the shade.

All this finger-print free tech could edge its way into handheld devices within 7 years. So watch the video and start crossing your calendars.
