First HSUPA handset by Samsung

Samsung are renowned for making attractive sliders, be they thin or thick. Now, they've done it again, with the M470, their first mobile phone to feature HSUPA connectivity. HSUPA allows up to 5.8 Mbps uplink speed.

But, the M470 is not simply a one-trick pony. It runs on the latest Windows mobile OS, features Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity to boot, complementing HSUPA. The M470 also sports a 2 megapixel camera. It should retail for around $600-$700 USD. Unfortunately, it is unlikely that this attractive handset will see the light of day outside Southern Korea.

W760 - a new line of slider from Sony Ericsson Walkman.

According to the manufacturer, this is the first musical machine company that supports the range of three third-generation networks (in Russia is, unfortunately, yet irrelevant).

The main characteristics of Sony Ericsson W760:


Support for GSM / GPRS / EDGE 850/900/1800/1900 and UMTS / HSDPA 850/1900/2100;
2,2-inch display with a resolution of 240 pixels h320;
Camera 3.2 Mp;
Bluetooth and USB Interfaces;
40 MB embedded memory;
Slot Memory Stick Micro (M2);
GPS receiver;
FM tuner;
Technology management SensMe gestures;
Dimensions - 103 h48h15 mm;
Weight - 103 g.

At the time of the sale proceeds W760 in the second quarter of 2008, buyers will be available three color solutions: silver, black and red. The latest price has not been announced yet.

How about spicing your Mobile dream with Asus M930 communicator

We’ve mentioned that Asus planned to release its new M930 communicator in Nokia E80 Communicator style. This time the French-language GPS&Co has posted pictures and specs of it. The new product is made in a clamshell form-factor and equipped with a numeric and a QWERTY-keyboard and two displays. The M930 opens at 90 and 180 degrees. At the picture we see that the internal display is of small size and has enough empty space around it, so we don’t know whether the final version would look this way. Supposedly, the European sales will start in 1Q 2008.

The specs of Asus M930:

• Network - GSM/GPRS/EDGE (900/1800/1900 MHz), UMTS (2100 MHz) HSDPA up to 3.6 Mbps
