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 ...
Samsung's Android 'lite' phone closer to UK release
Techradar - All the latest technology news —
Samsung's follow up to the moderately well-received Galaxy Android phone, the i5700 Spica, has now popped up in Scandinavia. First available in Russia last week, users in Finland and Denmark are now able to buy the new device later in November. Prices vary between the two countries, but the phone is still expected to cost around £400 when converted. Teach the world to speak The phone itself is the same one released for launch in Russia (although with a different language pack obviously, unless Samsung is trying to force every customer to learn a new language). This means an 800MHz processor (fast), a 1500mAh battery (long lasting) and a 3.5mm headphone jack ...
Nokia N97 Mini UK release date pushed back
Techradar - All the latest technology news —
Nokia's forthcoming N97 Mini, which was tipped to launch on 23 October, now seems likely to be pushed back to November. The official site is stating that the device has a 'tentative release date' in November, meaning that those that have pre-ordered it will be waiting up to a month longer. However, Vodafone's N97 Mini landing page has removed the 'coming soon' tag, so perhaps November is as close as Monday morning. Delays Either way, it's another mobile delay for Nokia, with the N900 recently also being pushed back for release beyond the expected launch at some point in October. The Nokia N97 Mini is a confusing device as well, given that it ...
