Nokia BMW video phone concept

Posted in Nokia by Conner Flynn on September 11th, 2008

Nokia BMW video phone conceptMeet the Nokia BMW Video Phone. Take one look and it’s obviously the BMW of cellphones right? A thing of beauty. It’s what you get when you combine the ultimate driving machine with the ultimate video mobile phone.

The Nokia BMW mobile phone has an interesting standout feature called “push to open” which is a mechanism that rotates 90 degrees. Push the button and your phone is a handy-cam. We’re thinking they should get on this one real quick, but experience tells us that they’ll take their own sweet time and let someone else beat them to it. Someone like Sony for instance.

Touch Screen Audi & BMW cell phones

Touch Screen Audi & BMW cell phones
We loved the Ferrari cell phone and we knew that it was just a matter of time until more cars joined in on the fun. If you’re not the Ferrari type, or just need a new car to use as a cell phone, you might want to try an Audi or even a BMW.

You’re gonna look silly talking on it, that’s a given, but if you’re brave enough to buy it, you’re probably brave enough to use it in public. You can get the Audi in white and the BMW in black. Both sport touch screens, a 1.3 megapixel camera, MP3 player, 3GP and Mp4 support, Bluetooth and 1GB of memory. They’ll cost you $160 each and unlike the real deal are electric powered. Try not to get caught playing with them on your desk.

D299i quad band cell phone watch
This Cell Phone watch is pretty nice looking with a number of cool features, like a camera, E-Book reader, vibration, card slot and bluetooth, plus a built in 1.4 inch touch screen display.

You can actually write on the screen as the watch has hand writing recognition capabilities. I am not sure how many words you can write on a screen that size, but if you keep it simple you should be alright. The camera is 1.3 megapixels. It will cost you $249.99.

RIM files patent for familiar-looking QWERTY slider

Posted in Legal by Darrin Olson on March 1st, 2008

RIM patents a QWERTY slider phoneA new patent application showed up recently on the USPTO website from Research In Motion (RIM), the makers of Blackberry mobile devices. The application shows a slider phone with a hidden QWERTY keyboard behind and looks an awful lot like some mobile handsets we’ve seen recently from HTC.

The device is described by RIM as a Hybrid Portrait-Landscape Device With Trackball Navigation and Qwerty Hideaway Keyboard. I don’t think we’ve seen any devices from HTC that have a trackball which is somewhat of a trademark of RIM, but is that enough to make this a novel invention? We’re also wondering if this could be the new touchscreen BlackBerry that we’ve been hearing rumors about for quite some time now.

Zeki walkie-talkie with SMS and MP3 for kids

Zeki walkie-talkie with SMS and MP3 for kids
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.

Nokia’s flexible cellphone rolls up, stretches

Posted in Concepts by Conner Flynn on February 25th, 2008

Nokia’s flexible cellphone
Nokia’s new Morph concept phone is a futuristic beauty. The idea is that it would use nanotechnology to give it a flexible body with a transparent display. It would feature the ability to re-shape itself to the user’s needs, which is a quantum leap away from today’s solid and chunky phones.

The electronics inside would be transparent and flexible as well, so that the whole phone could be twisted and stretched into bracelet shapes or even a tablet. Thanks to nanotech, it would even clean itself. It was developed with some help from Cambridge University, and can be seen at the MoMA in New York. One day even this will seem obsolete, but for now, it’s the future. The future looks awesome.

CB Radios + Bluetooth, looks like we got us a convoy

Posted in Bluetooth by Conner Flynn on February 21st, 2008

CB Radios get Bluetooth
It’s amazing that the CB radio has not already been given the Bluetooth treatment. Well, now there is a Bluetooth-enabled CB radio, so the CB can keep on truckin’. 10-4 good buddy. Cobra Electronics 29 LTD BT CB radio is Bluetooth-enabled, allowing truckers everywhere(and others of course) to receive cell phone calls wirelessly into the CB unit.

It even comes with a noise canceling microphone perfect for truckers. Those trucks aren’t exactly quiet you know. Tactile controls let the driver feel where the dial currently is in its rotation, so the driver no longer has to take his eyes off the road. The 29 LTD BT will be available this summer for $189.95. Until then, I’ll catch ya on the flip side. Keep the bugs off yer glass and the bears off yer tail.

Second Life coming to mobiles

Posted in News by Conner Flynn on February 20th, 2008

Second Life coming to mobiles
Soon, Cell phone owners won’t have to be left out of the Second Life world as Vollee plans on rolling out technology which makes it possible to play the game Second Life on 3G handsets. This thanks to Vollee’s streaming media service. This does seem like a tall order, with Second Life being very graphics intensive. It would require a LOT of streaming data.

So, it might be a good idea to start thinking about an unlimited data plan unless you want a huge bill at the end of the month. Only time will tell what the end result of this will be, but at least someone is trying.

Kiss phone detects the intensity of virtual kisses

Posted in Mobile Phones by Conner Flynn on February 18th, 2008

Kiss phone detects the intensity of virtual kissesApparently cell phone kissing is a hot activity in Japan. I had no idea. The kiss phone makes it easier to kiss your loved one from a distance via mobile. This isn’t just video and making loud smoochie sounds either, the kiss phone from PROinvention can detect the intensity of the kiss. It senses not only the pressure you use, but also the heat of your lips and how hard you press or suck. (I’d say you suck pretty hard if you buy this phone)

Warning: Creepy territory ahead. Your partner, who also obviously has a Kiss Phone, just presses their lips against the fake plastic mouth of the phone…and they will feel the partner’s simulated mouth on theirs. Yes, it has now come to sticking your mouth on plastic objects. If you like, you can also leave kisses on the answering machine, and replay them over and over, until your lips hurt.
