TechRadar Choice: Top 10 mobile phones in the world today
Techradar - All the latest technology news — Believe it or not, the Nokia 3210 is now over 10 years old. Selling over 150 million units, the 3210 was the first mobile to truly hit the big time and it was many people's first time phone.

Techradar - All the latest technology news — The one thing everyone knows about the next version of Windows Mobile is that it's late. Back in September, Steve Ballmer told the Venture Capital Summit that he wished Windows Mobile 7 had already launched but that the team had been "completely revamped"; "we've pumped in some new talent" and "this will not happen again" two VCs tweeted him as saying.

Motorola planning 20 new smartphones for 2010
Techradar - All the latest technology news — Motorola appears to be ready to capitalise on the demi-success of its Dext and forthcoming Droid phone by releasing another 20 handsets in 2010. After what seems like years in the mobile wilderness, Motorola is now claiming that 2010 will be a big year for its smartphone push, with CEO Sanjay Jha quoting 'multiple tens' when asked on how many phones Moto is planning next year, and firming that to at least 20 when pushed. Interestingly, the company is well documented in having said it will be focusing only on Android and Windows Mobile in the future, so how the split will be made will give us an idea on which customer segment the firm is after. With Google already stating that it ...
