Tomorrow will be the big day of iPhone. It’s been couple of days or weeks consecutively that news and reviews, good or bad coming up on several news sites and blogs. But I couldn’t be bothered to catch up with anyone of them. Anyway, there is one element sounds quite promising to iPhone’s future. Well, it’ll get pretty good support from the pornography industry, i.e. the adult entertainer, Digital Playground is preparing about 158 trailers ready for iPhone users. This is an important element that almost confirms a bright future for iPhone. Oopps! Sounds like it’s just a PR trick, which Digital Playground only makes use of the big name of iPhone. As what they’ll do is to upload a load of old trailers but all are in standard mobile video format, not really only for iPhone.

The Samsung’s new music phone, SGH-F210, although is pretty skinny, which its whole body measures only 88 x 31 x 20mm, but it’s got pretty rich features crammed into its little body. It’s got built-in 1GB memory and further expansion for another 2GB via its microSD slot. It includes all basic features such as 2 megapixel camera, USB 2.0 and Bluetooth 2.0. Its keypad design is similar to its successor F200, which features 3 keys in a row and it’s smaller than any other keypads due to its slim body. It’s also got a metalic dial pad below the LCD screen, which makes navigating through the menu fairly easy using its buttons. It supports network types of GPRS class-10, tri-band (900/1800/1900). For its music functionalities are background music play function, music library of 3D sound effects etc. Anyway, it’s definitely more suitable for girls. Not a bad choice as her birthday gift, if she ain’t interested in the one that’s gonna be launched on Friday.

It’s been couple of days what we have been hearing is all about iPhone. And we’ve almost forgotten a cell phone that Google was talking about a couple of months ago – the Google Phone. In Europe, they just got the new LG KU580 yesterday and those outlets are simply calling it a Google Phone. Anyway, lets look at this so-called the Google Phone – the LG KU580. It’s loaded with a handful of Google utilities such as GMail, Google Maps and Google search etc. That’s why it’s been crowned the title “Google Phone”. It’s a 3G phone, carries a red-on-black color scheme, which is similar to LG Chocolate but with wider screen to suit all the Google apps. It’s got quite a number of great features, such as FM radio, MP3 player, 2 megapixel camera, video calls, microSD card expansion slot etc. Although its 2-inch screen is wider than any other LG phones, but I still feel it wouldn’t be fun at all for having to use Google apps on its considerably tiny screen.

If you think Apple iPhone is cool, then you’re absolutely wrong. In Japan, they’re now working on the next generation cell phone, which they’re putting more emphasis on the cellphone’s camera technology. And the hardwork is to turn the camera of the cellphone to work like X-ray, so it would let you see anyone naked, even up to the skeleton. Well, this is a joke. Isn’t it? A mock-up 5005X is being developed? If it’s true, then I guess all guys here would sacrifice all their assets in order to secure one!

Did we talk about iPhone was deemed too expensive for consumers? Yes, we did. And now there is rumor floating around that Apple is working on some cheaper versions of iPhone. According to the American Technology Research analyst Shaw Wu that Apple needs to lower its iPhone price in order for it to achieve the success of iPod, which had sold over 100 million units. Please note this is only the prediction of Mr Shaw Wu. Although this guy has been right for couple of guesses before about Apple’s move on its products. He even claims to have heard that Apple is currently working on a lowest-cost iPhone prototypes and the release date still remains unknown. As illustrated above, if this is true, we’d probably see couple cheaper versions of iPhone. Similar to iPod, which you will get Nano and Shuffle versions as well? Well, the picture is just a hoax, don’t take it seriously at this very early stage.

There are only about 9-10 days before the actual release date of iPhone, June 29th. Although, I’ve heard enough about iPhone, but anyway just to catch up, at least to know what Apple’s latest plan about it here. So, the most recent announcement by Apple is it’ll give it an upgrade even before its release. And the upgrade will involve longer battery life and quality glass for its surface instead of plastic. So, we’ll get to see iPhone to come with battery that can provide up to 8 hours of talk time, 6 hours of Internet surfing, and 250 hours of standby time. Other than the battery life, as mentioned, another upgrade is iPhone will get optical-quality glass for its surface instead of plastic, which will be more durable to stand scratches and give better optical clarity. Does Apple feel strong competition from those iPhone-look-alike and the Chinese clones, so they now rush for a upgrade in order to stay competitive?

This is not a new idea of making use of the natural forces to generate power for gadgets. Orange, the cellular network operator is going to show us its wind-powered cell phone charger, which the prototype will be able to make use of wind power to charge your cell phone. The prototype weighs only 150g and can be mounted on a tent. Basically, to use it, you just mount it up during the day, it’ll then store up charge generated from the wind power, so you could charge your cell phone at night. As shown in the small picture, this wind-powered charger shall carry a little propeller, which should be sensitive enough to spin, even though it’s only little bit windy. Else, it’ll only be usable in those really windy countries such as UK or Holland.
