More on Samsung’s new Palm-powered Smartphones

And to add to the overload of posts about Samsung today, MSMobiles has a roundup with details of the South Korean manufacturer’s three new Palm-powered smartphones, the SGH-i500, the SPH-i500, and the one everyone has been talking about lately, the SGH-i505.

Is Samsung’s i600 Smartphone finally coming out?

Samsung’s i600 Smartphone might be available from Verizon within a month. At least that’s what someone who visited a Verizon store in Wisconsin wrote to Smartphone Thoughts, saying that a rep at the store there let them actually play with a demo unit and indicated that the phone was close to coming out.

Sony’s 9.1 channel surround sound amplifier

A 9.1 channel audio/video receiver from Sony that we think just might be about the most number of channels we’ve seen yet in a consumer-grade surround sound system. If you actually have the space for nine speakers plus a subwoofer, there’s a good chance you can afford the huge price tag as well. The TA-DA9000ES…

A slow week for gadgets comes to a close

Is it us, or was this a really slow week for new gadgets? There were a bunch of big launches earlier this month (the Treo 600, those three new Palms, the N-Gage, that Voq Smartphone, etc.), but there’s been virtually nothing major of note this week, except for that new Segway HT.

First impressions of Viewsonic’s V36 Pocket PC

BargainPDA takes a first look at the Viewsonic’s V36 Pocket PC, which is one of the first Pocket PCs to come with a built-in digital camera. You may recall (though we’d forgive you if you didn’t) that Viewsonic first came out with their V35 Pocket PC, followed soon after by the V37, skipping the V36…

Loving the Treo 600

We’ve been getting a TON of email about the new Treo 600, mainly from readers who have gotten one and can’t believe how good it is. We’re pleased to report that we received one from Sprint to review just yesterday morning and have been having a lot of fun playing with it. The keyboard is…

First review of Samsung’s YP-910GS MP3 player

First review we’ve seen of Samsung’s new YP-910GS 20GB hard drive MP3 player, the one that’s designed to be used with the new Napster 2.0 music download service, though obviously using Napster with it is optional. The YP-910GS has a few built-in features that the iPod lacks, like a line-in jack for making recordings, an…

The death of the PDA?

It’s become fashionable lately to declare the demise of the PDA, and the Economist is the latest to jump on the bandwagon, or at least they appear to in the headline of the article. But if you read the piece all the way through, they actually concede that it’s really more a matter of opinion…

The iPod accessories are out

Those two iPod accessories we hinted at this morning are the real deal. The iPod Media Reader (pictured at right), which is made by Belkin, connects to the iPod via the port on the bottom and can read Memory Stick, MMC, SD, Smart Media, and CompactFlash Type I and II memory cards. It ain’t cheap,…

The Cyclone disposable cellphone

A “disposable” cellphone — one that came with a half hour or an hour of talktime, and that you could either then refill with minutes, recycle, or just throw away — isn’t such a bad idea, but so far no one seems to have gotten it right yet. One such attempt, the HopOn, was massively…

More fun with remotes

We actually got one piece of vaguely comprehensible hate mail in response to our post yesterday about how high school kids are using gadgets to cause all sorts of mischief (such as the kid who used a universal remote and then walked through the hallways surreptitiously switching on all TVs in the classrooms), but then…

Buyer’s remorse

Another interesting article about gadgets in yesterday’s New York Times, this one about people who buy lots of new gadgets and then never end up using them: People acquire these things — hand-held personal digital assistants, flatbed scanners, compact disc copiers and a host of other objects — because they promise to make life more…

Sharp’s Bowlingual phone

Right off the bat we’re wowed by Sharp’s new V601SH cameraphone, which is another new handset being carried by Vodafone in Japan beginning in December. It has a built-in 2 megapixel digital camera (with an auto-focus lens!) that can record high-definition video clips, a video out port for watching those clips on a TV, and…

Review of the Photo3-D 303

Dan’s Data review of the Photo3-D 303, Mission3-D’s kit for taking three-dimensional photographs with almost any digital camera that we first mentioned a few weeks ago. It does work, but you need those red and blue 3D glasses to look at the resulting images, but Dan says that with a little effort you can probably…

Keeping it old school

Scott Kirsner of FastCompany says what a lot of people are probably feeling and what execs at Nokia, Sony Ericsson, and Samsung really don’t want to hear: that he doesn’t need a fancy new cellphone and that he’s perfectly happy with the handset he has now: Want to tick off the CEO of Nokia? Tell…

Creative’s 60GB Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra

We already knew about this one because J&R Music World accidentally leaked the news a few weeks ago, but Creative has officially announced the Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra (which is the regular Jukebox Zen but with a larger display), and it’s even better than we’d originally reported. J&R listed a 40GB player on their site,…
