Nokia 7070 Prism

Nokia 7070 Prism

Granted, the Nokia Prism isn't exactly the best looking handset in the world, but somehow Nokia engineers don't seem to get it by releasing yet another Prism phone in the form of the 7070. It looks pretty much the same like its higher-end counterparts, and is highly personalizable with a host of themes and wallpapers to choose from. Other features include MP3 ringtone support, a built-in handsfree speaker and a voice recorder. At $80, it looks pretty tempting as a beginner's handset bar the design which is of an acquired taste.

Windows Mobile 7 Spotted

Windows Mobile 7 has just been spotted after Microsoft unveiled it at CTIA today, and it has also been called Windows Mobile Photon - presumably in order to prevent confusion among less tech-savvy folk with its upcoming Windows 7 desktop operating system. Accompanying the Windows Mobile Photon announcement was the Windows Mobile 6.1 update which offers easy zoom in and zoom out functions whenever you browse photos by using the volume keys on your device.

8x Telescope For Voyeurs

8x Telescope For Voyeurs

Come on now, it is time for some confession. You know the swagger of a confident lady from afar, but somehow she doesn't seem to walk by your way in order for you to have a better look. With cell phone cameras improving by leaps and bounds these days, why not take advantage of that by augmenting your handset's camera with the 8x Telescope? Each purchase is bundled with a tripod and a cell phone holder so that your voyeuristic shots of her will never end up blur. No idea on how much it costs and when will it be released though.
