The folks behind the project have taken a…

Remember the Palm Foleo? This REDFLY Mobile Companion is just like that, except it's for Windows Mobile phones. The MC looks like a small 8-inch screen laptop (styled in Famicom colors), has a keyboard and touchpad, but weighs 1.9 pounds and measures 9x6x1 inches. The point of this?

What Missing Sync did for $39, SyncMate does for free—syncing your contacts, calendars, notes and favorites from your Windows Mobile phone onto your Mac with little to no hassle.

It's good news day for Sprint users! Not only do you get the BlackBerry 8830, your corporate overlords have just released a data sheet detailing what you'll get with the upcoming PPC-6800, or HTC Titan, as it's better known as.

We've seen sexy renderings of phones before, but we've yet to see anything we can actually touch with our own two hands. A company called Zenum has a similar promise with their Opus Operis WM5 phone—slick, but vaporware as long as there are no real photos.
