T-Mobile Launch the ‘Wireless Pointer’ [Oddest. Named. MiFi. Ever]

by Ben Smith 3rd November 2010

The news is 2 days old now, but we missed all the fun then so… T-Mobile have got their act together and launched a Mobile WiFi device (MiFi) akin to the Three and Vodafone ones already on the market. I wrote up what little info there is for my Mobile WiFi Challenge Blog, but we’ll […]

Review: Sanyo Xacti CA-100 Waterproof HD Video Camera [Guest Post]

by Guest Contributor: Mike Stead 28th October 2010

A few months ago I spotted a press release that Sanyo were launching the Xacti CA-100 - the ‘World’s first 1080p waterproof camcorder’, which got me immediately excited.

File this firmly in the ‘unconfirmed’ tray, but a super-secret source contacted us a few days ago with news that the Symbian Foundation is to be wound up. The wheels are - apparently - already in motion and today’s news that CEO Lee Williams is leaving (immediately) for ‘personal reasons’ appears to chime with this. This move […]

by Ben Smith 10th October 2010

It’s finally here. Some six thousand (ish - I forget) years after it was announced the N8‘s shipping and I’ve got an Orange one. There’s plenty being written about it already so let’s keep this brief…

by Martyn Davies 1st October 2010

Samsung today abandoned Symbian support with an email blast to their developer community. According to Samsung Mobile Innovator, the shutters will come down rapidly, with the developer forum closing and even the existing content being purged at the end of December this year.
