Virgin Mobile in India


That Branson guy is crazy. Yeah, that same old, boisterous, flamboyant Chairman of the Virgin Group, Sir Richard Branson. First he sends a telescope in the JAM office inviting us to the launch of Virgin Mobile in India. Then he goes right up Hilton Towers and does a bungee jump (like his bones are not more than 30 years old) on the unsuspecting Mumbai masses. Once thats out of the way, he comes into the press conference dressed as though he is out for a walk on the beach. White shirt, plain light brown pant and floaters. May I warn you, Sir, Paani Poori on the Mumbai beach, will put you in hospital for the remainder of your trip.
I was all excited when he came in the conference hall (which was literally bursting at the seams, the media love someone quotable and flamboyant). Why, you ask? Because, dahling, I thought some sexy Virgin Atlantic air-hostesses might be hanging around. There were none. Like, damn.
Branson seems to have apparently rung Ratan Tata and told them, “Hey big man, we want to do something in India. Anything!”. So Tata sets up Virgin Mobile as a service available under the Tata Tele banner which allows Virgin to escape all the legal hassles and use someone else’s existing network too. Elementary business branding, pumpkin.
Virgin seem to have done extensive homework and all this is targeted at the youth, which everybody and the press kit were hell bent on reminding us. Nevertheless, their homework deserved an A grade from me, so to speak. They seem to have studied the pattern of the youth quite smartly. And I couldn’t quite deny their research. I’ll tell you one outrageous thing. You receive talktime for receiving calls from any network. Also, the person who handles your complaint at the call center will continue to do so till you cling on to Virgin Mobile. That’s outrageous!And with all that they have bring their expertise of handling Virgin Mobile all across the globe too. Vodafone and Airtlel, be scared. Be very scared.

i phone-3g


Introducing iPhone 3G. With fast 3G wireless technology, GPS mapping, support for enterprise features like Microsoft Exchange, and the new App Store, iPhone 3G puts even more features at your fingertips. And like the original iPhone, it combines three products in one — a revolutionary phone, a widescreen iPod, and a breakthrough Internet device with rich HTML email and a desktop-class web browser. iPhone 3G. It redefines what a mobile phone can do — again.

nokia n95


Nokia's original N95 had one major Achilles heel: It didn't support the 3G data frequencies used by US cell phone networks, which relegated this speedy phone to accessing the Internet over a slow EDGE connection. That's rather like buying a Ferrari, only to find that the transmission is broken and won't let you drive over 35.
Nokia addressed this issue with this new version of the N95: the N95 with US 3G support. Apart from the updated radio, they also made a number of cosmetic changes, and added more memory. Although these changes may seem minor, they make a big difference. The 3G data connection is much faster, and makes the N95 with US 3G support a much more flexible phone; you can now realistically use features like the 5 megapixel camera to upload high res images and video to the Internet.
And the extra memory makes the phone much more responsive; it can now run several programs at once without choking. These changes make the N95 into the powerhouse phone it promised to be, and it proves to be a seriously powerful device. But it ain't cheap; the phone is sold unlocked, so you pay the full price for the handset ($699 direct from Nokia). You get a lot for your money, though; a phone that can effectively replace several devices (GPS receiver, music and video player, plus a camera and camcorder) in one handy package.
Note: this version of the N95 goes by various different names, including the N95-3 and just the plain N95. To avoid confusion between this model, the original N95 and the other new N95 (which doesn't support US 3G, but does have 8GB of RAM), we are referring to this model as the N95 with US 3G support.
Tour & Design - The new N95 has the same basic design as the old N95, with a few minor tweaks. It's still not what we would call stylish, but the design is practical
Audio Quality - The audio quality of the N95 is mixed: sent sound is good, but the received sound is a little off the limits we test against.
Imaging - The N95 has an excellent camera that takes good photos and video.
Making/Receiving Calls - The Keypad of the N95 is a little small, but we were able to dial relatively quickly.
Messaging - There's no built in support for instant messaging, but the email and SMS client is good.
Organizer - The N95 has a good selection of organizer features that should satisfy most users.
Multimedia - The N95 is a good audio player, but video playback is disappointing.
Software - Running the Symbian OS, the N95 has lots of options for installing third party applications.
Battery Life - The US 3G data support may be faster, but it also eats into the battery life.
Connectivity - There are lots of options for connecting, including 802.11 b/g Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 2.0
Hardware - The keypad on the N95 is a little slow to type on.
Other Features - The N95 includes GPS and tethered modem support.
Value & Comparisons - The N95 is a premium phone at a premium price.

Samsung UpStage announced by Sprint


The Samsung UpStage is Sprint Nextel's latest effort in the expanding music phone niche. We first saw this handset at CES when it was called the Samsung Ultra Music F300, but since that was a GSM device there have been a few changes. The UpStage keeps the unique 2-face styling in an iPod nano-esque shape. Executives for Sprint joked that the name UpStage comes from Sprint's desire to steal Apple's iPhone thunder. Though the spec sheet shows the UpStage is not made to compete with a high-end product like the iPhone.
Features of the Samsung UpStage include:EV-DO 3G dataStereo Bluetooth 2.0 with spoken caller ID1.3 megapixel camera45MB built-in memory plus microSD card slot, 64MB card includedPetite size, 4.07" × 1.73" × 0.37"Sprint Music Store for OTA downloads, new lower priced $.99 downloadsSprint Music Manager application to load music onto device
Sprint expects to begin selling the Upstage in the first week of April. It will be priced at $149.99 with a new 2-year contract. Sprint looks to be betting big on the Upstage and will be aggressively marketing it.

Sony Ericsson W580i announced


The Sony Ericsson W580i is the latest Walkman music phone for the North American market. With yet another music announcement, CTIA's first day has a very familiar feel. The W580i builds on the Walkman platform which has so far been the most successful line of music handsets.
Features of the W580i include:Quad-band GSM plus EDGeWalkman 2.0 music player (MP3/AAC/AAC+/e-AAC+/WMA)512MB Memory Stick Micro in box2 megapixel cameraStereo BluetoothJust 14mm thickFull HTML Browser with RSS
The Sony Ericsson W580i will ship in two color combinations, white (shown right) and grey (shown below). It will begin shipping in Q3. Carrier partners have not been announced, but AT&T or T-Mobile would be likely candidates.

Sony Ericsson Z750 HSDPA handset


The Sony Ericsson Z750 is a new HSDPA handset targeted at North America. What that really means, though not technically announced, is it's destined for AT&T (Cingular). While the 3G connectivity is surely big news (it's Sony Ericsson's first HSDPA phone for North America), the Z750 is also one of only a few consumer focused handsets to support Exchange ActiveSync push email. In addition, the Z750 is Sony Ericsson's first handset based on the Java Platform 8. That should make it easier for developers to create innovative applications.
Features of the Sony Ericsson Z750 include:Quad-band GSM/EDGE plus tri-band HSDPA (850/1900/2100)2 megapixel cameraMemory Stick Micro M2 card slotBluetooth 2.0 EDR + with A2DP stereo supportQVGA screen with 262k colorsPOP3/IMAP4/Exchange email supportFull HTML browser with RSS
The Z750 should begin shipping in the third quarter. It's available in two color schemes, rose pink (shown right) and phantom grey

LG VX9400 TV phone launches on Verizon Wireless


Verizon Wireless has launched its second MediaFLO mobile TV handset, the LG VX9400. Mobile TV has been a major talking point at the CTIA conference and LG has been showing off the VX9400 proudly. Sporting a unique form factor (the screen swivels into landscape orientation) and MediaFLO, the device is designed to work with V Cast TV.
Features of the LG VX9400 include:QVGA screen with 262k colorsEV-DO 3G dataBluetooth with A2DP stereo support1.3 megapixel cameramicroSD card slot
Because of the TV technology, Verizon Wireless will keep an exclusive on this handset. It's available now for $199.99 with a 2-year contract. Note: V Cast TV is only available in select markets, but the list is expanding.

iPhone days are running now


It's June 29th and Apple is finally ready to let the public play with the iPhone. The past six months have shaped up to be the highest profile mobile phone launch ever, Apple has conjured up an amazing amount of buzz for a device that only a handful of people have actually held. While the early adopters are busy waiting in lines across the country to be the first iPhone users, others are busy betting (real money!) on what bugs will be found.
AT&T came out in support of its EDGE network today amid heavy criticism from the first round of iPhone reviews. The combination of a "2.5G" data technology and a HTML/CSS compatible browser can mean some heavy wait times (expect about a minute to render a complex page like nytimes.com). Most phones, even many inexpensive models, from competitors Verizon Wireless and Sprint ship with 3G data support.
Apple has not announced how many units it has on hand, but analysts believe it's around 3 million. Steve Jobs noted that Apple has "built factories to build these things" so supply may not be an issue despite the lines outside stores. Apple employees are set to get free iPhones starting in July.
Get it tonight starting at 6PM. If you're an early adopter and would like to share your iPhone impression with us, get in touch.
Update: After getting a chance to sit down with the iPhone, our first take is that it's a big step forward in the industry and should help force all the major players in the space to focus on software and user experience. There are a number of serious limitations with the iPhone, but it's a solid first try and we're excited to see future revisions.
