In With The New


As cell phones get more advanced, we are moving away into a new world, a new era of smartphones. The arrival of Android, promised Windows Mobile 7, iPhone OS, webOS, Maemo, Symbian, and other operating systems are bringing improvement after improvement. I feel the need for a new phone!

It's been a great few weeks for phones. I'll make a little list...

- Sense interface comes to HTC Magic! Clicky
- Firefox, the popular web browser comes to Maemo! Clicky
- Nokia n97 gets improved calling, improved scrolling, and more! Clicky
- Nexus One with multitouch, Google Goggles, more? Clicky
- iPhone/iPod Touch 3.1.3 out! Clicky

Have fun, and always feel free to donate a phone or two to me. It's no problem.  :)

For free, why not?



Nokia's navigation system for their phones, Ovi Maps has been updated and is available for free. Free stuff is always cool, like the racing game they've created. Any map, choose a car, let's go riding.

They are over 1.4 million downloads already since the update. This apparently translates into "a download per second, 24 hours a day."
