First Japanese TV phone

We almost missed this: Vodafone says that starting in December it’s going to carry NEC’s V601N cameraphone with an analog television tuner. You can’t record TV shows and save them for later with the V601N, but it can capture still images of whatever you’re watching that you can use as wallpaper or email to friends…

Flattered though we are that Wired Magazine would borrow from Gizmodo to publish an email newsletter, this analysis by Adweek is blushmakingly over the top. “Although it’s rare for any publisher to do a press release about an e-mail newsletter — much less throw a launch party for it at New York’s Starfoods restaurant —…

Gadgets in the classroom

Article in the New York Times today about the use and abuse of gadgets in high schools these days and how teachers are almost totally clueless about what’s going on.

No surprise here: the N-Gage tanks

This probably won’t come as much of a surprise to anyone, but The Register is reporting that the first week of sales have been rough for the N-Gage, Nokia’s gamephone, at least in the UK. A poll of 6000 game stores in Britain found that only 500 were sold, which is going to make it…

Dell releases details on their new Axim X3 Pocket PCs

Dell was rather skimpy with details when they announced their new Axim X3 series of Pocket PCs a few weeks back, but now they’ve deigned to tell us what’s inside of them (not that we didn’t know most of this already through other sources). The new X3’s will be lighter, shorter, and thinner than the…
