Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 Full Review

Many serious phone users like myself have been itching to get their hands on a Sony Ericsson Xperia X1, ever since the phone was first announced in January.  I finally got my hands on one two days later, and after giving it a good run for it’s money over the last couple of days I’m [...]

Compare Mobile Broadband Deals With Broadband Expert

The growth in interest in Mobile Broadband in the UK this year has been amazing to see.  More and more ordinary customers want to get fast internet speeds when they are on the move with their laptops, and sales of Mobile Broadband dongles are rocketing in the UK.
What is mobile broadband?  Well just a like [...]

Who Do You Fring?

Applications for the Apple iPhone aren’t taking up the internet bandwidth and space. Actually only one company have developed an VoIP (Voice over IP) application, the Israelian company fring.
If you haven’t heard about fring, then perhaps you know one of the people behind it – Avi Schechter. He was one of the founder of the [...]

25 Must Have Applications For Your Nokia N95

Week to week, I’m not sure if I like my Nokia N95 or HTC S620 more. It’s a tough battle between Windows Mobile 6 and Symbian, as I love the QWERTY keyboard on the HTC S620, but then I start missing the Nokia’s browser and better phone features.
I think for now the Nokia N95 [...]

LG Viewty – Class-leading Cameraphone

Just before I flew to San Francisco last month, my Nokia N95 died on me again, which was really annoying. The N95 refused to ‘boot’ so I had to send it off for repairs.
Luckily, thanks to the generous folks over at LG, a LG Viewty arrived for me to review and to play with. [...]

3 Launch Skypephone In The UK

As expected I received 2 free Skypephones today courtesy of 3’s PR machine, as part of the new 3 Skypephone service launch today in the UK. The new mobile will allow users to make free calls to other Skype users, as well as free instant messaging. It’s a cute little handset, but I’m [...]

BT Fon Launched: The World’s Largest Wi-Fi Community

Ever since BT invested in Fon, I’ve been on the lookout for the launch of a joint BT/Fon service in the UK, and as expected, word of the launch of ‘BT Fon‘ , creating the world’s largest Wi-Fi community, has just hit the wires.
The partnership between BT and Fon is very ingenious, bringing together BT’s [...]

Friday Fun: How To Kill 5 Mins (or more….)

Today is Friday and I think I should post something entertaining. When you work for 14hrs of work time, time kills itself and you have little time for going out and having fun. If you have a busy life then this post is not for you! These time killers are very addictive – you [...]

How To Become Your Own Wireless Internet Service Provider

It’s rare for Google to invest in a company–usually they just buy them outright–but Meraki is a rather exceptional company.
I had the pleasure of sitting down with the CEO of Meraki a couple months back when he paid a visit to the New York offices of Scientific American, where I work. Prior to this particular [...]

02 Pull The Plug On i-mode Service Blaiming Device Limitations

O2 pulled the plug on its i-mode service, citing that ‘a limited range of devices has restricted its growth and we don’t see that changing’. I found this very surprising as I really think handsets are close to being able to deliver services that the mass market will want to use, and doubly surprising [...]

Will You Buy An iPhone Survey

I’ve deliberately not written about the iPhone over the last couple of days as I don’t think the amount of hype is justified. However, I am going to post the results of a iPhone survey that Read/WriteWeb have been running.
Out of 845 readers who were asked whether or not they were going to [...]

Nokia N95 Battery Leaves A Lot To Be Desired

I had my first big day lined up for my Nokia N95 yesterday.  I had a full day out the office and I assumed the Nokia N95 battery would last the whole day, but it died at around 4pm which was very disappointing.
Here’s what I managed to do on a full charge:

T-Mobile Wing: Take The Strength Of Your Desktop With You

T-Mobile has recently released their new smartphone, the T-Mobile Wing, which will be replacing their 2006 MDA model.
The T-Mobile Wing is the first ever Windows Mobile 6 Professional device to step foot in the U.S. and, so far, reviews from individuals who have managed to get their hands on them have been quite reassuring and [...]

Wi-Fi In Laptops Dangerous To Kids

I try to not use a laptop on my lap because I’m sure the heat isn’t going to do much for my chances of fathering kids, but now I’m wondering if I should worry about the WiFi antenna. A UK government mobile phone safety research committee is advising that kids shoud use laptops. [...]

Business SmartPhone FaceOff – Blackberry 8800 Or HTC S620?

All good things must come to an end I guess. After holding out for a very long time, my boss is going to force me next month to get a business smartphone so that I’m always in touch.  I’ve never been a big fan of Crackberries as I hate seeing people constantly checking [...]

gDisk: Mac Freeware With More Space Than The Costly iDisk Software

If you, like many Mac users, are not comfortable with forking up the $99.95/year for a .Mac subscription (DotMac) but you still need some software similar to iDisk, then Google’s gDisk is the best alternative on the market for your storage needs.

What Phone Should I Replace My Nokia N80 With?

I’m coming up to my mobile phone anniversary, so I’m starting to think about what I should replace my Nokia N80 with. Usually I know exactly what phone I want to go for next, but this time I’m at a bit of a loss as I haven’t been paying much attention to handset launches [...]
