| Extremely Popular Samsung U600 or the Sony Ericsson W580i 2007-08-22 10:24:28
The UK Mobile Contract Tracker charts have shown to hot mobile phones in first and second places.
In the number one spot it’s the extremely popular Samsung U600 which has been unbeatable for the last three months, but now the Sony Ericsson W580i music slider phone has jumped up 19 spots to take 2nd place in just 2 weeks.
Could this phone be the one to knock the Samsung U600 from its long-standing pole position?
I am not sure how much Carphone Warehouse has had to-do with the Sony Ericsson W580i success, but by them offering a free Nintendo Wii with the W580i on an 18-month O2 contract has helped.
What phone do you like best? The Samsung U600 or Sony Ericsson W580i.

There are 3 new models in this line, the YP-P2, YP-S5, and the YP-T10. All look very sleek and are about the same size. The great thing about the YP-P2 is it has a touch screen, and nicely implemented I must add. The designs on all of them are quite good, and if I didn't already own an iPod, and had my music collection on Windows Media Player, I might consider getting one of these. The YP-S5 and the YP-T10 both have normal navigation controls, which I think are of the touch sensitive variety ala previous versions of the player, but with no touch screen. The all can play music, video, and radio. With the YP-T10 having radio recording. And the really neat thing about all of these players is the built in bluetooth. This enables the use of wireless bluetooth headphones, or possibly transfering music files or something of the sort. Anyways, if you're in the market for a new MP3 player, | | Las patentes apuntan al Samsung video game phone 2007-08-15 09:41:00 Después del éxito que ha tenido Nintendo DS otros fabricantesbuscan hacer un gran negocio en el mercado móvil, este es elcaso de los fabricantes de celulares, en estos momentos loscelulares enfocados a los video juegos no han tenido tanto brillo,como ha sido el caso del Nokia N-Gage el cual no causo muchoestruendo como el que ellos esperaban causar.

Estos datos provienen del informe del trimestre abril-junio de IDC Worldwide Quarterly Mobile Phone Tracker. En total, en estos tres meses se han vendido más de 270 millones de terminales, un 16 % más que en el mismo periodo del año anterior. De esos más de 270 millones de terminales, 100.8 llevaban el logo de Nokia en su carcasa. La compañía aumentó así su dominio que ya sitúa en el 37% del mercado mundial. El mayor avance lo hace Samsung, que con un incremento de terminales de casi un 50 %, se coloca segundo con una cuota de mercado del 13.7 %, dejando a Motorola, Sony Ericsson y LG detrás.Fuente: Xataka Movil > ElPaisUn Sal | | Bright Violet Samsung L600: just for ladies or not 2007-08-11 04:37:15
This is the new bright violet Samsung L600 which does stand out with its odd color, but the real question is “is this phone just for ladies or men as well?”
Also is it safe to say that ladies would even like the phone, feel free to give your opinion from a man or women’s point-of-view.
Other than the bright violet look the Samsung L600 also sports 15 MB of internal memory, Bluetooth, an microSD memory card slot, FM radio, a 1.3 megapixel camera, MP3 player, Vibration, WAP 2.0/xHTML Browser, TFT 256K colors 176 x 220 pixels display, 220 hours standby and 3 hours 30 minutes talk time, sized at 97.5 x 44 x 16.5 mm and weighs 84 grams.
Sadly the Samsung L600 Violet has no 3G, WLAN, HSCSD or Infrared port.

| | Samsung Claiming From Insurance due to Power Outage Damage 2007-08-06 06:14:37
Almost a day after the significant power-cut that the factory received, Samsung is going to “get insurance payments from a local insurer for the damage received during Friday’s power outage.”
The current estimate of the figure that will cover Samsung’s damage is said to be roughly $40 million, which is huge, yet understandable considering their huge losses thanks to the blackout.
Many analysts have predicted that it “would take weeks for the plants to reach full capacity,” which if is proven to be true, expect the same high prices and likely to remain constrained.
The exact cause of the power outage is yet to be known, but after weeks of investigating I’m pretty sure the poor insurance company that’s paying Samsung will find out.
