The Nokia N900 is still on a pre-order basis, but that’s apparently not an issue with Amazon as they’ve further lowered its price to just $479.99. This price is inclusive of a $50 mail-in rebate which previously stood at $560. We’re not sure why they decided to drop the price of the Nokia N900 by [...]

Motorola may not have been very competitive in the past couple of years, but they did manage to come out with a hit product this year in the form of the Motorola Droid which I personally believe is the best smartphone for 2009. With a decently-sized 3.7-inch touchscreen, 5-megapixel AF camera with dual-LED flash, WiFi, [...]

We never thought we could get one this cheap. The Meizu M8 for only 199 euros? The original iPhone clone and erstwhile iPhone killer for only $295 unlocked. Why, that’s at least $100 cheaper than the original price. This is the same 3.2-inch touchscreen phone with a 720 x 480 screen resolution. The same Meizu [...]

After Rodimus Prime and Alphatrion PMPs, Ainol frinally announced the V9000HDX Megatron. The 4.8-inch PMP is simply seething with villainy with a capacitive touchscreen and supporting full 1080p HD videos and comes with an adequate 16GB built-in. I’m also like the 800 x 480-pixel resolution LCD and the 2450mAh battery. No pricing yet, but then [...]

Owners of the Motorola Droid must be looking like the Incredible Hulk by now. Not only do their counterparts in Europe get to enjoy multi-touch, something U.S. Droid users have to do without–but in Europe, the price of the identical smartphone being sold by carriers has come down to almost nothing. For 1 euro, Germans [...]

The touchscreen Samsung YP-R0 has now made it to Korean retail stores. As we noticed before, this PMP doesn’t really stand out. Samsung has had some nice Yepp PMPs, and for a time we have even put them side by side with the iPod Touch for comparison. Not anymore. I’m sure the UI is pretty [...]

The Finnish giant is sais to be abandoning the S60 over Maemo for its smartphone. The Nokia N900, which runs Maemo, is now available in Nokia stores in the U.S. Distribution of the N900 will be a little limited but the device will go unlocked. Yes, there aren’t a lot of GSM carriers out there [...]

Many users and reviewers have noticed (duh) that the Motorola Droid’s camera autofocus feature isn’t working properly. It just snaps out all of a sudden. Now, all of a sudden, the problem is gone. The crazy thing is, they must’ve sneaked in a bug fix. People are getting paranoid, except that maybe there’s no bug [...]

Just when you think everyone will be jumping on the Windows 7 bandwagon, we’re getting more reports than usual of devices running Windows XP. Here’s another one from DigitalRise. The PC-729 Tablet boasts a 7-inch touchscreen, WiFi, Bluetooth and an Arm9 processor. I’m quite concerned with the 480 x 272 resolution of the 7-inch touchscreen [...]
