Nokia abandoning S60 for Maemo on future N-Series devices?
Posted on November 18, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Handsets, Software, Nokia, Linux, Symbian
Confused by Nokia's dual-platform, Maemo 5 and S60 5th Edition smartphone choices? You're not alone. Fortunately, things are starting to become a bit more clear thanks to some loose-lipped members of Maemo's marketing team attending an official N900 meet-up in London last night. According to The Really Mobile Project, Nokia will drop S60 from all of its flagship N-series consumer devices in favor of Maemo. Apparently, Nokia has been pleasantly surprised by the enthusiastic response to the N900 OS even though the enthusiast package is not quite ready for mass-market appeal. Mind you, the transition won't be instantaneous as anyone with an N900 (and a clear mind) can attest -- the OS, services, and apps just can't compare to the mature S60 platform regardless of Maemo 5's superior user experience. As such, we'll continue to see N-Series handsets already in development pop with S60 on board alongside mass-market Maemo devices as the platform matures to the point that Nokia can make the full switch by 2012. Assuming, of course, Nokia doesn't end up adding webOS to its portfolio somewhere along the way.

Samsung responds to Symbian claims, says it’s still supporting it
Posted on November 12, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Software
Contrary to popular belief (and reports from yesterday), it seems that Samsung actually isn't planning to ditch Symbian anytime soon -- or at least it's not prepared to tell the public. Shortly after announcing its own Bada OS, rumors began to fly that Symbian support would fade in the near future; according to a company representative speaking with Mobile Burn, however, that's simply not true. To quote:
'Course, just because it's "continuing" to support Symbian doesn't mean that the hammer won't fall tomorrow, but at least for now it seems the Big S is safe from seeing one of its own jump ship. Phew."Samsung is an initial member of Symbian Foundation and continues to cooperate with Symbian Foundation. At the same time, Samsung supports various existing open operating systems including Symbian, Linux, Android, and Windows Mobile. To provide more choices to meet consumers' many different tastes and preferences, we will continue our 'multi-OS' strategy."Samsung responds to Symbian claims, says it's still supporting it originally appeared on Engadget Mobile on Thu, 12 Nov 2009 21:18:00 EST.

Review: iFrogz Timbre earbuds w/mic and Luxe case for iPod touch
Posted on October 20, 2009 | No Comments
Short Version:
What we've got here is a failure to communicateiFrogz's Timbre headphones w/mic and their iPod touch 2G & 3G Luxe case. In a nutshell, the Timbre headphones (which work with both the iPhone and iPod touch) provide decent audio playback, a reasonably comfortable fit (thanks to the three different ear bud choices), and the convenience of a built-in microphone for voice memos, Skype, etc albeit for the slightly higher than desirable price of $49.99. As for the Luxe, it is mediocre at best with a suspect design and very little going for it, especially considering it runs $29.99. -
The HTC Hero is now available from Sprint, just an FYI
Posted on October 11, 2009 | No Comments
Sprint isn't doing itself any favors recently by breaking retail's first rule: Customers are dumb, so don't give them choices. But now at Sprint, consumers must decide between the Palm Pre, the BlackBerry Tour, and $179 (after $100 MIR & 2-year agreement) the Android-powered HTC Hero. I mean, they're making it awful hard on customers these days by offering more than one must-have phone.

The return of the TV-B-Gone
Posted on July 6, 2009 | No Comments
Just when you thought it was safe to go to a consumer electronics show, some clever individual has come up with a way to make that most infamous of TV remotes, the TV-B-Gone, even smaller. Now you have a few more choices on where to conceal your weapon of mass distraction as you are searched by a security guard.
While the original TV-B-Gone wasn't exactly clunky, some people just can't leave well enough alone. So we end up with a smaller model of the same technology, again capable of causing all kinds of mayhem and foolishness at your local electronics retailer.

Toshiba NB205 Reviewed: Great keyboard and trackpad, 8.5+ hour battery
Posted on June 17, 2009 | No Comments
Ah, the standard 10-inch netbook. It's everywhere. With restrictions imposed by Intel and Microsoft on just how powerful these little machines can get, manufacturers have to focus more on aestethics, good keyboards, and battery life to differentiate themselves inside the overly crowded arena that is the 10-inch netbook.
