First Google phone on sale this month

After several false starts, the first Google-powered mobile phone - HTC's Dream - will go on sale in Australia on Optus post-paid plans from the middle of this month.

But the Dream, sold overseas as the G1, could be rendered obsolete before it even arrives as a US telco executive has said a successor would be launched overseas "in the coming weeks and months".

It also faces tough competition from Apple's iPhone, which has similar features but a more elegant design, analysts say.

The 3G touch-screen device has a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, 3.2-megapixel camera and the ability to synchronise email, calendar, contacts and documents stored on Google's suite of online applications in realtime.

The phone, based on the Google Android operating system, will initially only be available on plans from Optus starting on February 16.

Exact details of the plans have yet to be announced but there will be four plans, starting at $59 a month, while monthly data allowances will range from 500MB to 3GB. Customers will be locked into two-year contracts.

Last year, Melbourne consumer electronics maker Ruslan Kogan made waves when he announced his brand, Kogan, would begin selling the first Android-powered phone by Christmas. The launch was pushed back until January 29 but, on January 16, Kogan announced he was aborting the release, citing "potential future interoperability issues".

The Dream, sold in the US and Britain since October last year, is the only Android phone on the market today. The Australian launch will be the first time an Android device has been sold in the Asia-Pacific region.

But other manufacturers including Motorola, Lenovo, Sony Ericsson and Samsung have all announced plans to begin selling phones based on the Google operating system this year.

U.S. Nokia Tube Phone Misses the Mark

The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic device is no ordinary phone. Nokia positioned it as its first mass-market touchscreen device. But what piqued consumers interest was the free year-long music subscription called 'Comes With Music' that came with the phone.

The Comes With Music feature could help the device compete with Apple's iTunes in popularity, especially in Europe said some analysts. Last month Nokia said it sold one million XpressMusic 500 phones.

But the $400 price tag is likely to be too much for recession-hit American consumers.

Consumers can buy iPods for cheap (a 1GB iPod shuffle costs just $49) and iTunes already rules with the largest market share for online music buyers. Breaking that mold will be impossible for Nokia with its expensive phone.

Nokia hasn't commented about the U.S. telecom carrier that will offer the XpressMusic 500. But unless it can convince one to drop the price of the device through a big subsidy, the Tube is likely to get lost in the shuffle.

New Samsung Phone Joins the Megapixel Race

It's the attack of the clones. After releasing its 8-megapixel touchscreen phone on T-Mobile last week, Samsung has announced a similar device but with a physical keyboard. The latest Samsung Ultra Touch S8300 phone is a slider that comes with a bright OLED-based display and a 8-megapixel camera.

The phone has a 2.8-inch AMOLED or active matrix organic light emitting diode anti-scratch touchscreen. OLED screens draw less power than a traditional LCD-based one and are thinner. They are also offer more vivid color displays.

Samsung, which announced the phone ahead of the Mobile World Congress conference in Barcelona next week, says it is positioning the device at premium customers who want a powerful camera phone.

The phone is just 12.7 mm thick though it has a physical keypad. Its 8-megapixel camera is being touted as its highlight by Samsung. Along with the geo-tagging feature and the built in GPS navigation, it makes the phone a good choice for shutterbugs, says the company.

There's no word on when this phone will be available and if it will come to North America. But so far, we are not impressed. Last week, Samsung released its 8-megapixel touchscreen phone called Renoir on T-Mobile The Ultra Touch slider doesn't add any more value to it.

By Ahmad on February 6th, 2009

Acer DX900 Smartphone: The new Acer handset is a rebranded version of the E-Ten Glofiish and is the result of Acer’s buyout of the smaller company in 2008.. The two differ only in a few superficial aspects, such as new colors on the exterior.

Feature-wise, the handsets are identical, sporting the same 2.8-inch, 640×480 touchscreen, dual SIM card support, a GPS sensor and Wi-Fi radio. There is also a 3-megapixel camera and the operating system is Windows Mobile 6.1. While no ship dates are known, the Acer DX900 is available for pre-order at the UK’s Clove Technology web-store for the equivalent of approximately $660, including tax.

Sony Ericsson F305 Hello Kitty Phone

Sony Ericsson F305 Hello Kitty Edition will lure much more preteen and teen girls rather than boys, but that’s probably its purpose anyway. It’s not clear yet what’s the special stuff the Hello Kitty edition of the phone offers – save for the cutely-painted case, which, in the end, should be enough for real fans. According to Mobile-review, the Hello Kitty F305 will be soon released in Russia, for a price that’s not known for the moment. It might be outed in other European countries too, but there are no clear details about this yet.
