I am not a big fan of streaming music personally, but in theory services like Slacker sound cool. Rather than buying individual tracks, Slacker lets users create personal radio stations. The service is available for mobile phones and computer users.

Slacker has announced that its application for the Blackberry line of smartphones has now been downloaded a million times via the Blackberry App World. Using the application Blackberry users can listen to personal or programmed radio stations over a wireless network.

The online collaborative applications suite, Zoho, is expanding its mobile territory to Android, BlackBerry, and Symbian. It was initially for the iPhone and Windows Mobile. The new Zoho Mobile includes all the new platforms and is accessible from http://mobile.zoho.com/.

You’ll get Zoho Mail, Zoho Calendar, Zoho Writer, Zoho Sheet, Zoho Show, and Zoho Creator. Zoho Writer, Zoho Sheet, and Zoho Show files are in read only mode while Zoho Mail lets users compose, and send email and can access their Zoho Creator applications. The company plans to expand the feature functionality and the portfolio of Zoho applications.

Hualu has been showing off its latest Mobile Internet Device known as the UCG501 at the Hong Kong Electronics Fair. This new MID features a 5-inch touchscreen display with 800 x 480 resolution, a high-performance integrated graphics card and Windows OS.

It also features a built in mini-optical mouse, Bluetooth 2.0, CDMA communication, GPS system, web TV, web radio and a 4700mAh Polymer lithium-ion battery. Nothing on pricing and availability yet, but we are asking ourselves why would someone buy this over an iPhone?

Knockoff phones must be pretty profitable for those who knock them off. After all, they just keep coming. This one is an oddball because there is no such thing as a Vertu Lamborghini phone, making this clone something of an “original”.

Thing is, it isn’t an authentic Vertu, and they don’t have the support of Lamborghini. But hey, some people just have to try to look classy with fake stuff.

Hey, that looks familiar. Where have I seen that before? Oh yeah, now I remember. The China-produced NokiPhone N3000i is an iPhone ripoff with N95-type dual slider capabilities. The GSM smartphone features a 3.2-inch QVGA screen, WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0, dual SIM support, microSD slot, and video recording capabilities.

It will cost you $129 right now, on sale from its $400 MSRP. At least it has features. China, will you never learn? Combining two great things into one is clever and all, but when will you make a knockoff that really captures our hearts?

We’re still waiting on confirmation of an iPhone nano, so HiPhone of China decided to get the job done in true knockoff fashion. They came out with their own version known as the HiPhone Nano. It’s a flip. Take that Apple.

The exterior features dedicated music playback controls that look just like an iPod Clickwheel, and you can even get the time on a monochrome display. Flip it open and inside there is a 2.4″ touchscreen display and a numeric keypad. How about dual-SIM support?

I hate it when I am driving around in an unfamiliar part of my own town or am visiting another town and need an ATM. Finding an ATM can be a pain if you aren’t in familiar territory. Once you do find an ATM the fees that the machine charges are usually high as well.

MasterCard has announced a new app for the iPhone and iPod touch called ATM Hunter that makes sure no matter where you are you can find an ATM to get cash. The application uses the location services platform of the Apple devices to find ATMs near the user.

Forget the RAZR. The Rong Zun 758 Razor Phone is a real shaver. It claims to be the world’s first mobile phone with a shaver. For talkin’ trouble and killin’ stubble. Just open the cover at the bottom and expose the shaver, hit a switch and have a shave.

The Rong Zun 758 Razor Phone is a dual SIM card phone with a 2.6-inch touchscreen, 0.3MP-camera, audio and video player, FM radio, stereo speaker, Bluetooth connectivity and a microSD slot. It is running on GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900 MHz networks. Check out a video below.

The internet is a dangerous place for unprotected computers. All sorts of attacks can happen if you aren’t protected from viruses to phishing and identity theft. Most computer users have several types of protection in place including antivirus and firewalls.

However, smartphone users often overlook protecting themselves form attacks when online. Trend Micro has announced a new, free app on the iTunes App Store for the iPhone and iPod touch. The app is called the Trend Smart Surfing application and it analyzes websites, email, and file queries in real-time for possible attacks.

In the market for a fashionable handset that will stand out and is not an iPhone? AU KDDI of Japan has a newly created brand called iida, that is aimed squarely at fashion-conscious users. One of their first handsets is the G9 slider from Sony Ericsson that is actually kinda sexy in a retro way.

Some features include: Built-in 1Seg TV tuner, Stainless steel body with titanium coating, CDMA 1X and GSM network compatible, 3″ touchscreen display at 480 x 854 resolution, 3.2-megapixel camera with autofocus, microSD memory card slot, Bluetooth connectivity, and GPS navigation support.

Oh China, why do you hurt us so with your unlicensed cheap knock-off products? This one really hurts my eyes. The phone is bad enough, but the packaging also shows a scene from the worst Spiderman movie ever. Spider Man 3. That’s the one where he went all emo and girlly.

The Spider-Phone has a 2 Megapixel camera, a swivel color display, a microSD card slot and dual SIM card slots. It supports GSM 800/900/1800/1900 networks and is priced at HK$1180 (US$152). What are the odds that we’ll see a Goblin phone to accompany this?

At CTIA, PCD showed off the strange yet interesting looking TXT8030. The handset’s lower section features a gadget mullet, with business in front and a party in the back. On one side you get a QWERTY keyboard and on the other you have your speakers and the music controls.

The display is 2.2-inches, while the memory is expandable via microSD. It also packs a 1.3 megapixel shooter, and the whole deal is 4.5 inches long X 2.4 inches wide, X1/2 an inch thick. Nothing on pricing or availability, but we hope to see it one day soon.

This Baketan 2 Ghost Radar cell phone charm strap thing comes out of Japan. If you happen to feel a sudden rush of cold air or have just moved into the Amityville house, there’s probably a ghost nearby. But how do you know for sure?

Just push the button the on Ghost Radar. If it blinks blue, you’re safe. If it blinks red, run like hell! There are ghosts in your vicinty! Keep it attached to your cellphone so you’ll always be safe.

The MOTORAZR2 V9 Ferrari Special Edition is constructed using plastic, metal and glass with a gloss black finish that is sure to get all smudged up with fingerprints. The handset will be available as a special edition in Malaysia.

Priced at $384, the phone is pretty much the same as the normal version of the phone. The MOTORAZR2 V9 Ferrari also features special edition Ferrari screensavers, wallpapers and ringtones if you’re into that sort of thing.

It doesn’t matter if you are a homeless New Yorker or an uber rich businessperson; most of us have one gadget in common — the cell phone. There are few people today that don’t have a mobile phone, though the type of phones we use varies greatly. Many geeks carry the iPhone and your mom may have the cheap phone that comes free with her plan. The mega rich also have their own type of cell phone.

Mobile phones like the Vertu Signature Dragon have been available for the elite for a while. A new handset is now available for the well-heeled buyer called The Chairman. The device is from SCI Innovations and watchmaker Ulysse Nardin. The main design feature of the phone is a functional watch rotor. The phone is offered in solid gold and steel/gold versions as well as all steel versions.
