From a distance, this thing looks just a little too much like the BlackJack (the old one, not the new) for comfort — but when you zoom in a bit, it looks like Samsung’s spinning a few cute touches into its SPH-i325 “Ace” for Sprint. Mobiledia has this one pegged for the […]

While there’s certainly no shortage of ways to get your photos off your cameraphone and onto your PC, Belkin and Kodak seem to think they’ve got a better way of doing things, with the pair now rolling out a new Bluetooth adapter / software combo that promises to make things even easier. […]

Paperless boarding schemes aren’t exactly revolutionary, but they’re still far from common at US airports. Now, however, Continental Airlines has announced that it will be trialing a cellphone-based boarding setup at Houston’s Intercontinental Airport, which will enable single passengers (as in, one barcode per person, per device) to show personnel a jumbled […]

We already had a pretty good indication that this one was coming thanks to our pals at the FCC, but Nokia has just now gotten official with its 3G 6263 handset which, as we previously suspected, does indeed appear to be nearly identical to the Euro-centric 6267.

We’ve seen some fairly intuitive home security creations in our day, but this little wonder ranks pretty high up there. Utilizing a couple of cameraphones, a microcontroller, solenoid relays, a photoresistor, wires galore, a soldering iron and a robust picture messaging plan, this cameraphone activated cameraphone can be used to snap […]

If mama taught us one thing about free offers, it’s read the fine print. Unfortunately, it was missing from Nokia’s unusually tight-lipped “Comes with Music” announcement yesterday. Fortunately, Ars Technica unearthed the dirty details for us. Nokia’s service is actually a first to fit under Universal’s Total Music plan whereby carriers […]

While it’s still not clear if it’s actually going to go so far as to join the Open Handset Alliance (as previously rumored), it looks like Verizon Wireless is at least getting behind the Android platform, marking a fairly significant shift from its previous position on the matter.

The just-announced 3110 Evolve candybar from Nokia is big on features. Not features of the gizmo sort, though — quite the contrary, actually — rather, features of the “Mother Nature will thank you” sort. As its name suggests, the phone appears to be an evolved version of the rather plain 3110 classic, a […]
