Microsoft Project Pink Mobiles Made Official

by Jay Garrett on February 13, 2010

The MWC is a matter of hours away and most eyes will be on what Microsoft will be bring to parade on centre-stage.

Windows Phone 7 is almost a given but it seems that the Project Pink phone, Sharp’s ‘Turtle’, as been FCC’d (Federal Communications Commission).

The diagram on the right for model PB10ZU shows more than a passing resemblance to the Turtle pic I posted about in September.

According to the paperwork the PB10ZU will be loaded with dual-band CDMA, EVDO, Bluetooth and WiFi connectivity.

Engadget spotted that the FCC filing’s details are being withheld until March 29. That’s just after the potential Zune Phone unveiling that is rumoured to take place at the CTIA conference in Vegas.

Expect more about lots of other new phones over the coming few days ;)

Puma and Sagem to out a Sporty Little Phone at MWC

by Jay Garrett on February 10, 2010

Fashion phones don’t usually get my juices going.

They are what they are – a fashion statement first and a gadget second…. or even third.

So, when I heard that the result of a Puma and Sagem love-in was set to be unveiled at Mobile World Congress next week a whole lot of ‘meh’ hit me.

Since visiting the site though – it’s all gone a bit weird.

The site is light on details about the phone but it is heavy on oddness.

The phone will likely be an Android blower with fingerprint ID and, judging by the pic, a solar-powered jobby. I’d expect it to have a pulse/heart rate monitor, perhaps a pedometer and some circuit training things – you know, like the Nike +.

On that site there’s the countdown to the day of Sagem’s Mobile World Congress press conference but there’s also a selection of bonkers videos of animals that have apparently inspired the creators.

What are you expecting from this sports-phone?

Ok – so this is actually new tech and not something from when flint knapping was actually a life-or-death skill to have.
There’s a new company going by the name of Cranberry who is selling a DVD made from high-tech stone (yes, stone) that will store data for up to 1,000 years.
That obviously dampens the [...]

First picture I saw of this little Panasonic lead me to believe that it was a neat portable LCD Television.
Gah – how wrong and foolish do I feel now?
What it is, in fact, is Panasonic’s new MW-10 “multimedia audio system photo frame”.
Not only will it show pictures held on either its 4GB of internal memory [...]

When the Cupcake update for the G1 Googlephone was announced T-mobile also kinda mentioned a new Android handset without giving any real details.
Now, I reckon that it’s safe to assume that the particular beast in question is the T-Mobile G1 Bigfoot, discovered in leaked documents by TmoToday.
The phone is also going under the title of G1 v.2 so more [...]
