Today Emoze announced a free, network operator-independent mobile email offering. Emoze will support Java-based mass market handsets from Motorola, Nokia, Samsung, and Sony Ericsson. Users interested in the service can download the Java client for free from the Emoze web site. The mobile email service makes use of technologies from Sun, and offers a much richer user interface than many other mobile email products. It will support Microsoft Exchange, POP3/IMAP servers, as well as Web mail servers like Gmail. The service will be rolled out in waves. The first handsets to be supports will be Nokia's Series 40 phones. Others will be added over time.

Samsung announced that starting July 22, OMNIA will launch on the
Italian market. This is the first European country to get the
all-in-one multimedia-friendly smartphone, but others will follow and
it will be available through major carriers as well as in open markets
before the end of August.
Italians now can already pre-order
the OMNIA, taking advantage of a promotion, giving them a free Xbox 360
Arcade. The unsubsidized 8GB variant will cost 499 EUR ($793), which is
a pretty good price for a high-end phone, and a bargain for the same
phone AND a console. Prices in other countries will vary.

Ericsson and 3 Italia announced successful trials of enhanced HSPA
technology that boosts upload speeds to 5.8Mbps, under optimal
conditions. The improvement also reduces latency dramatically, which
speeds up interacting with mobile web-based content. The two companies
were able to reach those speeds using 3 Italia's commercial network.
Increasing the uplink capabilities of cellular data networks will allow
users to send content from their phones, such as email or MMS files,
faster. more at Mobile Tech News »

16th June 2008, 9:47 AM by Eric M. Zeman Researchers
at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology
and the University of Tokyo in Japan have created new Flash memory
technology that would allow Flash memory chips to have a lifetime that
would span hundreds of years. Current Flash chips have a life
expectancy of about 10 years, depending on how much they are written
to. More reading/writing can cause the cells within Flash memory chips
to expire sooner, rendering the chip useless after less than 10 years
of life. The new ferroelectric Nand Flash memory cell developed by the
Japanese scientists can be written to 100 million times, scaled down to
10 nanometers, and uses only 6 volts of electricity, less than
one-third of today's chips' 20-volt draw. MicroSD cards, which are
widely used in cell phones to expand file storage, rely on Flash memory
chips.

The website Will-it-Blend.com got
really popular by… well, by blending stuff in a high-speed super
blender. They've put all kinds of gadgets in that blender and none has
managed to escape the relentless blades yet.
The story behind the Will-it-Blend campaign is in fact a clever
marketing strategy for promoting and selling those super blenders by
Blendtec. Nonetheless it's so fun watching all those things go down the
blender really fast - some even go ballistic.
Yes, the first-gen i

14th July 2008 by phonearena team In Taiwan, the home of HTC, the manufacturer offers a new variation of the Touch Diamond,
its latest and greatest smartphone. Code-named P3702 Victor, the new
phone trades the Diamond-like back cover for more traditional dull
black flat one. Getting this you will lose some of the cool look but
will not worry that the back of your phone is dirty all the time. Also,
it is a pretty decent option for getting a “rare Diamond version”.
