  • LG kicks off T-Mobile relationship with Sentio, dLite, and GS170

    LG kicks off T-Mobile relationship with Sentio, dLite, and GS170

    Don't look for any crazy Android hardware here, but these three dumbphones are more notable than you might think: they mark the first time LG has hooked up with T-Mobile USA, believe it or not. The Sentio (pictured left) is the most interesting of the trio, featuring a 3-inch touchscreen, 3 megapixel cam with video capture, and support for visual voicemail. The dLite flip (middle) offers a nifty concealed LED array upfront -- a feature you see occasionally on Japanese and domestic Korean handsets, but rarely on American models -- along with a 2.8-inch display and a pair of color choices ("bubblegum" and "electric blue"). Both the Sentio and dLite also feature T-Mobile's Social Buzz app for aggregating social network status updates, a helpful feature that's quickly becoming the norm in this class of device. Finally, you've got the GS170 flip -- a phone so basic that LG apparently didn't deem it worthy of a proper name -- offering a VGA cam, Bluetooth 2.1, and "large visible keys." All three phones will be available this Summer for yet-to-be-disclosed prices. Follow the break for LG's press release.

  • Another iPhone 4G prototype shows up, bares all including Apple’s own A4 chip

    Another iPhone 4G prototype shows up, bares all including Apple’s own A4 chip

    This is just silly now. Another iPhone has leaked onto the Internet. What kind of ship does Steve Jobs run over there at Apple? This time around they aren't going to be able to bust down the owner/seller/stealer's door seeing as it all went down in Vietnam. Then again, anything is possible with the Apple gestapo. But somehow a Vietnamese website got a hold of the device. The back story really doesn't matter right now. They got and posted pics and video -- good for them. The site went a bit farther than Gizmodo, though. They actually tore it apart, revealing a nice little surprise.

    This is either the Nintendo 3DS or an over-the-top mock-up

    We’re not sure what to make of this thing. On one hand the design is clearly out of the box in a way Nintendo tends to think, but the twisting and turning seems just a tad too far from the norm to be real. But the Japanese site says it’s the real deal so it [...]

  • A Trojan Horse Arrives In The Internet-Connected TV Room

    A Trojan Horse Arrives In The Internet-Connected TV Room

    It's not the norm for a startup based in London's Silicon Roundabout (yes, it's our little bit of the Valley) to be in the hardware business, let alone the highly competitive world of consumer electronics. But that's precisely the position that 3view find themselves in. The company's Internet connected set-top box, which marriages the worlds of over-the-air broadcast television and Internet TV (IPTV), is poised to compete directly with TVs and set-tops from the likes of Sony, Pioneer, Sharp, Humax, Pace and others, and to some degree, the online video and media playback capabilities of Microsoft's XBox 360 and Sony's PlayStation 3 game consoles.

    Sony Ericsson keeps ‘em coming with Xperia X10 mini and X10 mini pro

    More Android handsets are on the way from Sony Ericsson as the handset manufacturer just announced smaller versions of the Xperia X10: the X10 mini and X10 mini pro. Clever names, right? These handsets are quite sexy, if I say so myself, and the pro version has the nice addition of a slide-out QWERTY keyboard. [...]

    Hands-on with the Plastic Logic Que

    And we have another ebook reader! This time around it's the Que from Plastic Logic. Just because it's not the Kindle or Nook, don't write it off. This device, and the software it runs, might be special enough to make a mark in the ebook reader scene.

    Palm Pixi Review: Not for everyone, but it fits a niche

    Palm and Sprint have taken a very different approach to the launch of the Pixi than they did with its slightly older and slightly brawnier brother, the Palm Pre. In the days leading up to the Pre, both parties were on full attack mode; keynotes were held, massive tradeshow booths were built, full page newspaper [...]

    The i-Toc: A very cool watch

    The i-Toc is really what you would call a "mystery watch." It has two overlapping disks that are graduated from light to dark and the point of absolute black - or whatever color you've bought - marks the hour and minutes hand. Pretty sly, right? Designed by CG reader Sean, the i-Toc is a mere $99 and comes in six colors including silver, blue, purple, red, and orange. It has a 41mm case and has a silicone strap with butterfly clasp. Heck, they even have a screen saver so you can add a pink i-Toc to your PC or Mac.

    Sony outs the chic MDR-770LP headphones

    Normally we don't spend valuable Internet real estate on ordinary headphones, but this new pair from Sony is just so damn sexy. At ¥5,900 ($65 USD) I'm sure the MDR-770LP headphones sound good enough, but that's not why I dig 'em.

    Heartbeats by Lady Gaga: Garish headphones for the pop star in you

    Say what you will about Dr. Dre, but the man is a hip-hop legend. Say what you will about Lady Gaga, but she's terrible. So you can either consider the fact that “Heartbeats by Lady Gaga” was just announced as one of two things: a callous cash grab, attempting to earn (?) more money while Lady Gaga is still popular, or... no, that's the only reason these things exist.

    Always being ‘connected’ is ruining our way of life

    It sure is great to live in the developed world. No having to worry about having enough to eat or finding clean drinking water or anything like that. Nope: we freak out when Twitter momentarily goes down, or when we can't use certain software on our phones. Or, conversely, we complain about the undue influence certain technologies have over our lives. We're all over the place.
