Video Review: O2 Cocoon mobile phone
Getting sick of that O2 Cocoon phone yet? Susi takes yet another look at it, this time in the swanky confines of our Shiny Towers, instead of at the O2 Wireless festival like last time, busily quaffing champagne and canapes. Ahh, it’s a hard life.

Shiny Video Interview: Kat chats to Head of Entertainment at T-Mobile about their Music Jukebox service
As Stuart reported on Tuesday, T-Mobile has launched a new service, Music Jukebox, which allows users to download music tracks straight to their mobile phones or PCs. I took some time on Tuesday to chat to Damian Byrne, the Head of Entertainment at T-Mobile…
Rumours abound about RIM's BlackBerry Pearl 2 (Komet), again
More rumours are floating about the intertubes regarding the BlackBerry Pearl 2 we reported on a week ago, this time with even more pants-wettingly attractive features than before. Plus, the internal code-name has been leaked also – Komet. Kind of like a poor man’s reindeer, non?
It was first thought that the Pearl 2 would have a 2-megapixel camera, but it’s since been reported by Boy Genius Report that it’s even better than that – a whopping 3.2-megapixels will ensure your upskirt-shots will be crystal clear and jail-worthy. However it won’t be as subtle to take photos as before, as the camera will be located horizontally on the Pearl 2, much like the high-end camera phones which like to masquerade as proper digital cameras…
Doro flashes 525 Pink DECT phone
Time to get excitied, ladies! The Doro 525 is pink, which means it’s for you. He’s not allowed near it. His big, dirty hands would crush it in seconds and leave a nasty brown residue down the side of its sleek, curvy buttons. He would also make it smell of sweat and feet AND take it into the toilet.
Shiny Review: O2 Cocoon – the 02 phone with "consumer style"
You saw the video review Susi did last night of the O2 Cocoon, now take a moment to read the review…
Although the O2 Cocoon isn’t due until August, it’s sure to make advance gossip waves with its sparkly, original design. A sleek, white clamshell, the display appears as if from nowhere to display time, “now playing” info, caller ID and even text message previews. The phone is definitely music-friendly, packing 2GB (500 tunes) of memory on board with extension to 4GB using a micro SD card. It even plays iTunes Plus DRM-free AAC files. That’s on top of the FM radio and the calling options that give you the choice between quiet background music during a call or complete pause…

Shiny Video Review: O2 Cocoon mobile phone
Last night Susi from our pink-obsessed sister site, Shiny Shiny, was lucky enough to attend the O2 Wireless Festival in London, where she checked out The White Stripes and foolishly ignored Queens of the Stone Age. Anyone who’s seen them live will agree with me that was one foolish move!
Anyway, it wasn’t just a day of skiving for her, as she got to check out the new O2 Cocoon phone, which, if you stay tuned to Tech Digest this afternoon, you can see a review of shortly…
Shiny Video Review: HTC P4350 Smartphone
It may not be a touch-screen like the recent offering from HTC, but this P4350 from the smartphone company still manages to impress….
Shiny Video Review: Toshiba Portege G500 Smartphone
We’ve been cranking out the smartphone reviews of late, because really, what is a mobile phone these days without office features and push-email? Alex has taken a few minutes to run through a video demonstration of the Toshiba G500, a 3G, HSDPA, feature-packing smartphone (in a relatively compact case).

Shiny Review: Toshiba Portege G500 Smartphone
Hot on the heels of the laptop / tablet PC we reviews last month, we’ve taken a look at a smartphone from the same Portege range.
Replete with Windows Mobile 5, fingerprint security, WiFi and Bluetooth, there’s a lot of potential packed into this smartphone. It’s not the slimmest or most compact of sliding phones, but there’s a lot to recommend it nonetheless.
