Sprint and Samsung have announced the long awaited upgrade of Windows Mobile 6.1 for the Samsung ACE. The new upgrade features Windows Mobile 6.1, Office Mobile 6.1, GPS, and the ability to install unsigned applications.

Just in case you follow DigiTimes, I wanted to quickly address a claim they have on the new Samsung NC10’s battery life. I’m sure the information they were provided was either from marketing materials or someone in the Samsung PR department, but I’m not buying it. The claim I mean… the netbook looks tempting. [...]

You know, for an amateur designer, Andrew Kim’s “Lavender” concept cell phone for Samsung is pretty great. I like the pebble-like asymmetrical shape, the graphics on the interface are clean and easy to grok, and I think the notion of a swap-in perfume dispenser is great. Pretty awesome work for a 16-year-old kid. Someone should [...]

AT&T’s Samsung SGH-a837 Rugby claims to have been tested again Military Standard MI-SID-810F to withstand vibration, rain, humidity, solar radiation, dust, and extreme temperatures. That’s all well and good but the folks at MobileBurn.com wanted to see if it really could stand up to its claims. Watch the video below where they toss it [...]

My quest for the perfect netbook just got harder with photos of the new Samsung NC10 appearing on a French web site. Samsung looks like they put a real keyboard with proper key positioning on the NC10 and with the 10.2-inch screen this baby probably offers a nice typing experience. The NC10 looks like a [...]

T-Mobile has shown without a doubt how excited the market is getting over Android with the buzz generated from their press event announcing the G1 phone. Other handset makers have noted the interest too but a couple of the biggest ones are going to be late to the party it seems. Samsung and LG, two [...]

Samsung Pixon is half phone, half point-and-shoot camera. It’s just a millimeter thicker than the iPhone but includes an 8-megapixel camera — one with the ability to record video. One bummer, though, is the listed “16x Zoom”, which from what I can tell is all digital zoom, not optical, making all those megapixels a bit [...]

Steve at UMPC Portal jumped on the Ubuntu Mobile image that was released earlier this week and first impressions show that it’s a fine mobile computing environment. The actual image was developed specifically for the Samsung Q1 Ultra UMPC, so you’ll see that all of the device hardware is well supported: WiFi, the touchscreen, screen [...]
