New Nokias and HTC Drops the Dream

Monday, August 25th, 2008

What a beautiful Monday… Just getting toward the end of summer, with cool mornings and warm evenings, this week is starting off right. Especially when you consider the new handsets with which the tech world is blessing us. From Japanese concepts to those Nokias we were promised, here are some of the highlights in cell-phone news for this week.

A Pair of New Nokias

Nokia said we’d have a couple of new products to toy with this week, and they have followed through on their word. Today the N79 and N85 are launched, giving us a peak at yet another potential iPhone killer (the N85) that is rumored to mirror Apple’s precious candy-bar, full touch-screen shape and low, low price, when purchased with a plan.

The Google Phone is Here!While we’ve been hearing much about the HTC Dream for some time, the first Android phone appears to be on its way. With many video trials and FCC approval, there’s no doubt that it will be any day now that we might be able to hold this beauty in our hands. With amazing screen resolution and full internet access, not to mention a super-chic, smaller-than-the-iPhone body, this is share to be the phone of your Dreams.

Newest Japanese Concept Phone Inspiration: PLYWOODIf there’s any chance of this thing actually getting to market, KDDI’s Ply phone could quite possibly blow some of these other touch-screen, super-smartphones out of the water. With “an expansive touchscreen backed by a number of layers that represent the phone’s various functions”, it’s rumored the Ply comes equipped with a printer, a pico-projector and (although I’m not sure why) an analog clock. While it may be inspired by a particularly unattractive, I’m a big fun of the pink, layered look the mock up is sporting on Engadget.com.

New York Times: T-Mobile To Sell HTC Android in October?

Friday, August 15th, 2008

Fall is approaching and that means only one thing … new phones will be released.  New York Times reported that T-Mobile will be the first carrier of the highly anticipated HTC Android, and its release could be as soon October.  Engadget reports that the HTC phone will go one sale in the U.S. “before Christmas, perhaps as early as October.”  The nifty device is still waiting for FCC approval with a three-way Google, T-Mobile and HTC announcement expected as early as September.  The best thing about the HTC Android?  It is expected to be exclusive making it the only Android phone available in the U.S. this year.

A Look at the HTC Dream

While there isn’t many specs released about this sought after smartphone, the 5-row QWERTY keyboard slider is a hit and there is talks of a trackball and 3D graphics processor.  Check out the video below … and be awed.
