Filed under: Handsets, HTC, Motorola, Samsung, Sanyo, Sprint, Windows Mobile, EV-DO, CDMA Though the document doesn't exactly look magazine-quality, this is a case where we'd argue that it doesn't have to be to be real; it's clearly for internal use only, for one thing, and secondly, we don't know where else the picture of that new Sanyo Katana Eclipse would come from. The Eclipse is just one of several pretty nifty releases claimed to be lined up between now and September, with the Motorola VE20 Vegas and a pair of data cards joining it on August 17. September should bring the Motorola i365 and V950 Renegade, Samsung m220 and m320, and the HTC MP6950 -- which we assume to be either the Touch Diamond or Touch Pro -- clearly in desperate need of an actual name by the time it launches.

Motorola A810 gets official in MING series' shadow
09.07.2008 09:17

Filed under: Handsets, Motorola, Linux, GSM The new A1600 and A1800 out of Moto's touchy MING series have already been fully outed, but it turns out Moto wants to bundle a third touchscreen Linux piece in there to make a complete set: the A810, which goes to retail without that MING name attached. In the press release, Motorola comes right out and calls it "entry-level" -- and considering that the 2 megapixel camera and polarizing styling fall well short of the more elegant, luxuriously appointed MINGs, that's no big shocker. It's available in black and white, features an integrated 3.5mm headphone jack, and is available now in Chinese retailers.Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments

Filed under: Handsets, Softbank Mobile, Apple It's T-minus iPhone 3G and counting and the international queuing has begun in earnest... and in Tokyo. This is the line outside of SoftBank's flagship store in Harajuku as captured by Akihabara News. Now, let's forget about the first guy, look at our boy number three, Mr. Anonymous Good Posture. With 2 more days 'til launch and the unboxing and reviews already done, pictures of his rapid state of dishevelment might be the most interesting thing we see come Friday. One more picture of the absurdity after the break. Continue reading iPhone camping rule of thumb: don't wear a suitRead | Permalink | Email this | Comments

Mysterious new Sony Ericsson Walkman phone spotted
09.07.2008 05:15
engadgetmobile.com
Filed under: Handsets, Sony Ericsson Yes, it could be a knockoff or a rendering -- but given Sony Ericsson's storied history of being unable to keep unreleased phones on the down-low, we have every reason to believe we're looking at a real phone here. Besides some interesting texture on the case, we can see some Walkman branding on the bottom and the lower edge of the keypad, so it looks like we're dealing with a candybar; rumor has it there's a 2.4-inch screen up there somewhere, too. The rest, though, is pure guesswork at this point. Want more? Well, we're only half joking when we say we bet this'll be on eBay by next week, so line up that cash flow now just in case.[Via SEfanatics]Read | Permalink | Email this | Comments
