Re: Computer Talk!!

The Chinese forum predictions (leak) are spot on with the new announcement of the new iPhone. We need to trust the Chinese forums more :)

The camera on the original iPhone isn't that great, I hope the new one is much improved.

Speaking of Apple, does anyone here fiddle with OSx86 stuff?

Re: Computer Talk!!

Sony Ericsson is losing money from every orifice in the body. I don't necessarily give them a good chance to survive, not without making a major policy shift to smartphones, and away from feature phones. Already they're showing a new Sony Walkman that is powered by Google's Android.

Nokia is actually the world leader in smartphones by a technicality, because they installed Symbian in a large base of their T9 keypad phones. Technically, any feature phone that has Symbian is considered a smartphone, because you can install third party applications of your own choosing on it. But by far most Symbian phones are used no differently from feature phones.

Samsung is just all over the place, with no vision, releasing all sorts of Windows Mobile, Android, Symbian and proprietary OS smartphones with Java. Its like they refuse to take a stand on which platform they want, and just blows into any direction of the moment. That's why they don't have the brand value of Apple or Blackberry.

At what point do those things become gimicky rather than practical, remember those watches that came out with a zillion functions, how many people actually used them?

Does anyone know what Huawei's consumer products are like?

China's Huawei Rides the Smartphone Wave
The Chinese company launches two new phones, one powered by Windows Mobile and the other by Android

Huawei Technologies yesterday showcased two new smartphones at CommunicAsia—the Android-powered U8230 and the C8000 supporting Windows Mobile.
The U8230 allows users to switch between full and half QWERTY keyboards and to navigate programs via a 3.5-inch LCD touch screen. The handset uses the Google Chrome browser which supports a variety of Google applications such as Google Maps, Google Search and Google Talk.
The battery has a capacity of 1500 mAH, which the companies claims is the the longest battery capacity among Android-powered handsets currently available.
The C8000 has a 3D menu interface and a unique independent display adapter that enables the smooth presentation of video files and DVD-quality pictures on a 2.8-inch touchscreen. With optimized power management, Huawei says the handset is capable of playing video files continuously for six to eight hours.
After joining the Open Handset Alliance last year, the company has quickly expanded its line of high-end handsets powered by Android and Windows Mobile.
Glory Chueng, spokesperson for Huawei Terminals said: "These two models take the interactivity experience of smartphones to a whole new level."
She said Huawei plans to launch a series of touchscreen handsets that support W-CDMA, CDMA and TD-SCDMA standards in the second half of 2009.
