LG has released its new LG-KS20, a HSDPA-enabled handset featuring a large touch-screen, both WiFi and Bluetooth compatibility, 128 MB of internal memory, one-button e-mail, and other groundbreaking features.  In fact the LG-KS20 is so loaded down with technology, many are hailing it as the “iPhone killer.”

The LG-KS20 certainly looks stylish, with a 2.8 inch wide LCD flat touch-screen.  And at only 12.8 mm thick, the LG-KS20 has a slim and clean design, with smooth lines and a larger than expected touch-screen.

But despite its cool appearance, it’s what’s under the LG-KS20’s hood that has mobile users intrigued. The handset runs on Microsoft’s Windows mobile six, ensuring compatibility with existing mobile software. And the LG-KS20 is compatible with the new HS PDA high speed mobile network, allowing users to enjoy speeds of up to 3.6 MB per second when surfing the net.  This makes it not only possible, but actually a breeze to download music or video clips and other content online.

The LG-KS20 certainly does seem to be designed as an Internet surfing phone.  For example, full Internet browsing capability, including full-screen display mode is supported.  You can also save sites to your favorites and add shortcuts.

While the iPhone looks the business, and has advanced MP3 playing features, the new LG-KS20 is the first true high-speed Internet PDA/smart phone that allows users to surf the Web just as they would on their home PC.

The LG-KS20 has just been released in Europe, and will be hitting the American market within the next three months.  We’ll have to wait and see if it’s the “iPhone killer” gets cracked up to be.

Remember back in the day, when a cell phone used to be called a “cell phone?” Well not any more. Nokia has just introduced the N77 “Multimedia Computer,” a beast of a smartphone/mobile TV/MP3 player/computer that includes integrated DVB-H technology.

Nokia’s new N77 is so packed with features; I honestly had to read all the way down the bottom of the brochure to find out if it actually WAS a cell phone at all! The biggest selling point of the N77 is its integrated mobile TV, which uses DVB-H technology for up to 16 million colors and high definition stereo sound.

The N77 will be launched first in Vietnam, where consumers are already used to mobile television services, and in fact the country now boasts several TV programs made specifically for mobile TV viewers. No date has been set for a US release at this time.

The N77 is certainly a neat little gadget. It remembers the last Channel viewed when you switched it off, and will also allow you to set up alerts for when your program is about to begin. You can view a program guide up to seven days in advance, and it use a TiVo like 30 second replay function to “rewind” and watch something you may have missed.

The N77’s music functions are just as impressive, with 2 GB of memory and integrated stereo speakers. Storage space is provided for up to 1500 songs in a variety of popular formats including MP3, AAC and WMA.

And when you get tired of watching mobile TV or listening to music, you can surf the Web, manage all your day-to-day e-mail and calendar tasks easily, or take pictures with the inbuilt two megapixel digital camera. The new Nokia N77 attempts to be all things to everyone — and mostly succeeds.

With every major wireless player introducing so-called “smartphones” into the marketplace, you might easily overlook the new T-Mobile ìDashî as just another attempt to cash in on a trend.  But the Dash has a few tricks up its sleeve to ensure it won’t get lost among the myriad of other smartphones currently competing for shelf space this holiday season.

Weighing only 4.2 ounces, the Dash is small for any cell phone, but especially small for his smartphone.  And with a slim, sleek design (only .5 inches thick); the Dash is both tiny and attractive.

Texting and e-mail input is accomplished with a full QWERTY keyboard, and there’s a 1.3 megapixel camera around the back for uploading photos online or via e-mail.

Technically the Dash is a four band GSM phone, with both Bluetooth and WiFi capability. WiFi connectivity is automatic when ever you’re within one of T-Mobile’s 7200 WiFi hotspot locations around the US.  There’s also a MicroSD slot for increasing the phone’s memory by up to 2 GB.

Dash uses Windows mobile operating system, which includes the mobile versions of Internet Explorer, Word, Outlook and Windows media player, just to name a few.  Syncing the Dash to your home PC or laptop is easy, and mostly automatic.  You can also sync up via USB to exchange larger files like photos, MP3s or video.

And unlike many so-called “smartphones,” the Dash appears to have plenty of battery life, running for 48 hours or more before needing a recharge.  Most regular cell phones would be happy with this kind of battery life, but for a smart phone is very impressive indeed.

Although Europeans, especially northern Europeans, are often introduced to new wireless and computing technology before it is released in America, they’re now finding out how it feels to be on the other end of technology curve. Apple’s iPhone will hit the European market this Friday, beginning with releases in Germany and Britain.

Of course the iPhone has been available in North America for four months now, so the Europeans are slow getting their hands on the new technology — at least for once.

Many phone and wireless technology manufacturers routinely release products in Europe months before they make it to the United States. Nokia devices, for example, are almost always released in Europe well ahead of the American market. And it is surprising to many Americans to learn that the new cutting edge phone they just purchased is already old news in places like Finland, Norway and even Iceland!

But at least for now, the Europeans are getting a taste of what it feels like to be second in line for a high technology release. Prices for the iPhone in the UK will be roughly the same as they were for its launch in the United States, and sales are expected to be “brisk,” according to Apple’s UK headquarters.

German sales are expected to also be substantial. CNBC Europe is reporting that pre-registration demand for the iPhone was “strong” in Germany. In fact Apple’s German headquarters expressed concern over whether they had enough devices to meet consumer demand.

Following the German and UK release, the iPhone will be introduced in France and Scandinavia on November 29th, and most of the rest of Europe in the weeks to follow.

Research In Motion, the manufacturer of Blackberry smartphones, has launched a new software application to allow Blackberry users to browse the face book social networking web site easier from their phone. The new application allows Blackberry users to receive face book notifications and send and receive messages much easier.

The software builds on Blackberryís already robust e-mail program, so users can read and compose messages within the face book software whether they are online or off.

T-Mobile USA will be the first US carrier to provide the new software to its wireless customers. Research In Motion is expanding its software applications for the Blackberry to include more social networking and lifestyle programs, as well as new games and multimedia offerings.

Analysts see the new move toward social oriented applications as an attempt to attract consumers outside of Blackberry’s traditional business user market. Besides the new face book software, Blackberry users can expect to see a variety of new programs being offered over the next year, including many online collaborative game programs, and possible extended support for other social networking sites such as YouTube and Myspace.

But will hard-core business users of the Blackberry be put off by Research In Motion’s attempt to make their flagship smartphone more “fun?” After all, the one area where the Blackberry excelled was in business connectivity. Expanding the Blackberry to a more lifestyle-based consumer market could potentially detract from its appeal as a business tool.

Whether the Blackberry can effectively become “all things to everyone” remains to be seen, but it is clear that Research In Motion is attempting to appeal to a new demographic, while presumably, keeping the business users they have. Only time will tell if they can pull off this balancing act.
