The Treo 700w: We Are Observing A Moment Of Silence

Yes, all the news of Palm teaming with Verizon is very exciting—which is why we wrote about it back in August. The addition of Windows Mobile is interesting, if troubling. But I guess it’s better to have Palm survive at all than to see it lose any more ground to the RIM Crackberry. https://gizmodo.com/is-this-the-palm-treo-700-116830 Palm…

Orange Joins Windows Mobile 5.0 Fray

All this talk of Windows Mobile 5.0 PDAs has got European mobile giant Orange in tizzy with its new SPV M5000. Saying that this is an actual alternative to a laptop may be a bit of an overstatement, but Orange insists its QWERTY keyboard is “slightly larger than such keyboards on many PDAs.” It also…

Palm Treo Class Action Lawsuit

Either the Treo really stinks, or Palm pissed off the wrong law firm. A class action lawsuit filed in California today claims that Palm Treos: “suffered from extremely poor sound quality and buzzing, choppiness, speakerphone problems, poor and broken screens, phone crashes, software crashes and electrical surges. When Palm replaced phones in response to these…

iTunes On Sony Ericsson

Surely, this is the final nail in ROKR’s coffin. Tea Vui Huang has created a “Windows-based iTunes Add-on for Sony Ericsson Walkman Phones, Sony Clie PDA and Sony Ericsson P900/P910 Smartphone”—it’s called the Mass Storage Synchronizer. Here’s the gist: MSS makes Sony devices show up as a folder in iTunes, and then through some crafty…

NSA Cellphone – Stop Looking at It! Stop It!

The NSA put out an RFP for a secure cell phone/smartphone and L-3 won with this Treo-esque smartphone called the Secure Mobile Environment Portable Electronic Device or SME-PED.

Motorola Losing Its EDGE

From the ‘while you were out to lunch’ department comes the news from Phonescoop that Motorola has been revising the specs on its most-anticipated handsets. I’m talking about hugely publicized phones such as the PEBL and SLVR, as well as the E895 and A910. What’s changed? These phones will no longer launch with high-speed EDGE…

Smartphone, Dumb Strategy

We all know that when it comes to the mobile phones that come stateside, it’s the carriers who hold all the cards. So it’s nice to see that Cingular is letting us have a cool phone (that of course, has already been out in Europe) right here in the US. An e-mail sent to developers…

Nokia 6682 Reviewed (Verdict: Thin and Smart)

The as-of-yet unreleased 6682 apparently ended up in the hands of the Phonescoop folks who like what they see. This smartphone runs Symbian and has quite a bit of range, even in harsh radio environments. Overall, it’s a cool, keyboardless contender to some of the better smartphones out there.
