Sling Media today has announced a new mobile client for those wishing to access their television programming while on the go. It is known as the SlingPlayer Mobile for UIQ on Symbian OS. It will run you around $30 for this software once it is released.

The SlingPlayer™ Mobile for UIQ on Symbian OS brings to compatible Symbian based mobiles the ability to watch and control home television when a Slingbox is installed at home. All of this is done over a wireless Internet connection, be it cellular or Wi-Fi. SlingPlayer Mobile also lets one “control their home digital video recorder (DVR) to watch recorded shows, pause, rewind, and fast forward live TV and even program and watch new recordings while away from home.”

Those BlackBerry users out there that have real jobs and actually get out of the house every now and again, unlike me, may find Blip to be an interesting and useful application. Using Blip you and your friends, family and co-workers can show your location to other people in your group.

Blip is from BlackLine GPS and according to BlackLine Blip users have complete and total control over who can see their location information. No one the user hasn’t approved can see the info. I can see this as both a good and bad thing. I guess it would be cool to see where in your city or block your pals are. However, if your boss, otherwise known as “The Man”, puts this on your BlackBerry he can see where you are as well. Kind of kills that opportunity to grab a long lunch break when you are out of the office working.

Samsung is jumping in the market joining the ranks of LG, Apple and others who have put out mobile phones featuring a touchscreen interface with the new AnyCall Haptic SCH-W420 mobile phone. Touchscreens have been all the rage for the past year or so, and already there are enough that companies have to come out with some unique features to help one stand out from the other.

To the AnyCall Haptic, Samsung has added some vibrating tactile feedback to the touchscreen. In fact, they’ve added 22 different types of feedback to your fingers from the screen, depending on what you’re doing with the phone such as dialing a number, moving objects around or spinning a dial. Whether or not your fingers are able to distinguish between 22 different type of vibrations is another story, but at least some feedback helps quite a bit if you’ve every tried to quickly dial a number on a flat touchscreen.

This is probably a hoax, but if not then I’m sure this was given to Tenacious D by the devil, so they can keep in touch and have more rock-offs. Aside from being obviously horny, it claims to have a stunning 666 days of standby time.

I don’t know about that, but this handset has a 32,800mAh “super battery” and features a dual SIM, GSM900/DCS1800 support and a 3″ display. It retails for $128, but you can probably work something out where you save the money and sign away your soul.

Nokia announced a new color for its ever popular N82 today. A new sleek black N82 will join the line alongside the Silver N82 that we wrote about in November of 2007. Other than the color change the black N82 is the same feature wise as the silver one.

The N82 sports the ability to operate on the WCDMA 2100 (HSDPA), EGSM900, GSM850/1800/1900 MHz (EGPRS) frequencies. The phone weighs 114g and has up to 100MB of dynamic internal memory for messaging, ring tones, images, video clips and more. A hot-swappable microSD card slot is available for memory expansion.

Today AT&T announced the availability of their own new version of the BlackBerry Pearl with the 8120 as a replacement for the 8100. The BlackBerry Pearl 8120 comes to AT&T with some new features that are already enjoyed by Sprint and Verizon, but most notably has WiFi added to its connectivity and forgoes the GPS.

An external-facing microSD slot, regular-sized 3.5mm headphone jack, 2 megapixel camera with video recording and an improved browser round out the updated features on the new smartphone. It also of course has all the features of the 8100 model as a quad-band GSM/EDGE (850/900/1800/1900MHz) world phone along with the slim candy bar design, Bluetooth and the almost-QWERTY keyboard.

This Chinese mobile smartphone doesn’t appear much different form many of the mobile devices on the market today but the manufacturer is claiming that it does have at least one significant difference. The makers of the the LionKing800 are claiming that it has high-capacity battery that gives it up to “about” 365 days of standby time and 3-5 days of continuous talk time.

It does have a 16,800mAh lithium battery which is significantly more than you would probably find in your current cellphone, so maybe it could be possible if the phone sat in a dark, quite room without being touched for a year. Either that or someone is just confused.

Alltel Wireless has scored an exclusive slider phone with a touchscreen interface from LG and plans to launch it March 13. The phone is called the LG Glimmer and it will price at around $250 after rebate and two-year contract.

The LG Glimmer, besides the aforementioned items, is geared towards media lovers with its 2-megapixel digital camera with video recording, built-in MP3 player and streaming video support. It’s also outfitted with an expandable memory card slot and is GPS capable.

There are a lot of people out there rocking the Treo, even though newer and cooler devices like the iPhone are available. If you are fond of your Treo and want to keep it pristine as the day you unwrapped it, OtterBox has your back.

OtterBox has a pair of cases designed for different Treo models, the 1920 fits the Palm Treo 650 and 750 and the 1921 fits the Treo 680, 750, and 755p devices. The cases are designed to keep your beloved phone safe from rain, dust, dirt and hopefully 3-year olds– the bane of all smartphone’s existence.

It looks like Samsung and Adidas have paired up to take on the likes of Apple and Nike+ in the fitness gadget market. The miCoach F110 mobile phone brings on similar workout tracking capabilities and then some.

The miCoach comes packaged with a heart rate monitor and a “foot pod” for tracking your steps wirelessly to the phone. The device will then keep track of your pace, distance and heart rate giving you audio feedback on your progress and exercise level during your workout.

Sony Ericsson today launched the T303, a small new slider mobile phone that offers a some style in a pocket-sized package. The T303 comes in a metal housing to give it a sold feel with a chrome finish and a sexy mirrored display.

The new handset isn’t breaking out into any bleeding edge technologies by any means, but looks to be a solid handset with some basic features and basic smooth looks. The small size is definitely something to take note of as well. The phone’s length measures just 3.3 inches when closed and weighs 3.3 ounces. It also has 65k color TFT and 8MB of internal memory for media, but does not appear to have any type of slot for external memory.

T-Mobile customers in European markets will later this year be able to exclusively get their hands on a rather sweet new Nokia mobile. It is called the Nokia 6650 and you can expect it during the third quarter of 2008.

The Nokia 6650 is designed to offer up access to several different wireless features, including integrated GPS and FM radio. It sports a 2.2-inch QVGA color display and high speed HSDPA data connectivity. There are also dedicated keys for the built-in media player.

Sprint is ready to bust some balls in the cellular phone industry by unveiling today a all you can eat plan to cover about every mobile need you’ll have. It is called the Sprint Simply Everything plan and it will run you about $100 a month.

This is a good iPhone alternative for those who like a far less polished look and favor a more rugged and tough design. EMobile’s new S11HT EMONSTER is far more macho and lives up to it’s name.

According to EMobile, it’s Japan’s first multi-functional smart phone. It does have a bunch of nice features, like a neat tilt-up 2.8-inch QVGA display screen, Windows Mobile 6, GPS functionality, microSD, Bluetooth 2.0, and a slick QWERTY keyboard. If you dislike the iPhone, or want to stand out against the converted masses, you can pick up your EMONSTER on March 28th.

Here’s an interesting way to pimp out your toddler. Korean company YoungToys released a cellphone/digital toy aimed directly at kids and toddlers. “Zeki” uses Near Field Communication(NFC) technology to communicate between mom and kid, or kid and kid, up to an 80-meter distance. Some other features include mp3 playback, voice & video recording, SMS and alarm function and the ability to absorb kid germs.

Zeki also supports the exchange of data between devices, so kids can exchange songs and videos, or plot the demise of an adult. The $105 device is made from materials harmless to their rugrat bodies and the phone is apparently shielded against electromagnetic waves, so you do not have to worry about your kid’s brain being fried. This would go well with the Sweetpea MP3 player he/she has already drooled all over.
