Later than planned LG has announced the LG KF700 handset for the UK market – but still no specific details of availability…
Samsung officially announces the Soul handset, but do we still care, two months later?
We may’ve first heard about this phone in early February, however it’s taken Samsung until today to officially announce it for their European market.
Hopefully you can remember the specs, but admittedly there has been an awful lot of releases since then, so here’s a quick round-down. The HSDPA GPRS/EDGE Tri-Band handset features a 5.0-megapixel camera with LED flash…
Make some phat drum 'n bass mixes with the BeatEd app for Nokia S60 phones
Those Nokia handsets that run on the S60 OS can do anything, I’m now convinced.

Will the Nokia Tube handset be the saviour of mobile TV?
Over at the Nokia-obsessed blog NokNok, a very valid point has been raised. We’ve all been banging on about the recently-announced-but-still-unannounced Tube handset, but have never once pondered on the significance of the name.
At a recent press conference in Helsinki, their Head of Internet Services, Niklas Savander, spoke about mobile TV, claiming “it’s all a bit in turmoil”, and that Nokia “have seen that there are multiple segments who are not interested in the broadcasting, but rather…

Hop-on disposable mobile phones head to Europe
