Samsung’s NV Line
The Samsung NV line of cameras have arrived. They are more fashionable then the average camera and look different to the modern looking cameras we are used to seeing these days. They are Black aluminium with 2.5″ LCD screens. The real show winner is the NV7 which has 7x optical zoom and measures just 0.8 inches thick. They have some nice touch pad buttons down the side of the display and also ASR (advanced shake reduction). The NV7 is the only optical one which will work with that though. Full details can be found on the next page.

Mitsubishi D902iS
The Mitsubishi D902is is a new slider phone that will hit the market imminently¦ in Japan that is. Europe has to sit and wait to see when this will hit its shores, but when, and if, it does, this phone will be sure to raise some eyebrows. It is packed with a ton of features. All of its features are crammed into it’s 110 x 49 x 19.9mm chassis. It has a huge 400 x 240 screen, a better then average 4 megapixel camera with MP4 video recording.

Samsung P300
The P300 is the latest in the line up of mobile phones from Samsung. My first impression was that this looks like a calculator. It is a phone though 😉 and I am sure it does have a calculator on it too.
The P300 is the size of a credit card and not much thicker either. It’s dims are 8.6 x 5.4 x 0.9cm. It’s screen is a 1.8″ LCD which is very good on the eyes.
Important stats include Bluetooth, tri-band (900/1,800/1,900 MHz) GSM/GPRS network connectivity and a 1.3 megapixel camera with flash and 4x digital zoom. If that wasn’t enough the phone manages to pack in an MP3 player supporting MP3, AAC, AAC+ and e-AAC formats, a video recorder with playback and video messaging capabilities, and 80MB of memory.

Sony Vaio Type U
I have had my eye on the the Sony Vaio Type U. According to Sony, is to switch from a 20/30Gb model to use a 16Gb flash memory. This is great news in some ways because it gives the device an increase to 4 hours. Other specs of the device have not changes from the 1.06Ghz/1.2Ghz depending on the model as well as the 1.3 Megapixel motion-eye camera. It goes on sale on the 13th July for $1798.

Nokia N93
The Nokia N93 is a little too big to be used as a phone in the oppinion of some. It does have plenty of nice features though such as a 3.2 megapixel camera, 50Mb memory, wi-fi, U plug and play, and a nice 2.4″ screen. It is powerful! No doubt about that.
