It’s no baloney. It ain’t no phony. Learning from the cult success of the song Banana Phone, LG presents its LG-SV280. This banana shaped slider phone features silky smooth looks and a sleek design, shaped aptly like John Cleese’s head (compare the two we swear it’s true). This marks the first time LG has created a fruit-cellphone hybrid. Measuring in ...

We in Asia have to wait till 2007 for the iPhone to arrive, the recent report from FCC has shattered dreams of millions since the widgets were to be substituted by Cingular’s monopolistic services for the mean time, the sole support for 850 and 1900Mhz would make parallel import (or roaming) to most parts of the world impossible.

Don’t you hate that cellphone cameras always have a way of not capturing what you want them too? This WYSIWYG design concept phone might just be the key to ending camera phone woes.

Good news, fellow guitar shredders. Hands-On Mobile announced today that they have made an agreement with Activision to bring Guitar Hero to your mobile devices, which really, really rocks. OK, the thought of Guitar Hero wherever we go sounds awesome, but how does Activision/Red Octane plan on producing a mobile version of a game which relies on its awesome peripheral? ...

We thought the Xun Chi 138 was the smallest cellphone we were ever going to see. Despite their lack of operation, these weeny sized Mini Japanese cellphones are ridiculously smaller than anything else on the market.

Today we saw two pictures of a supposedly Nokia premium phone with QVGA screen, this is speculated to be the brother of 8800 Sirocco: the 8600 Luna.
