Nokia N900, a multitasking smartphone

Nokia N900 is different from other smartphone. Most disturbing feature of a smartphone is that most of them are not supporting multitasking, which means, if you want to browse more then one task simultaneously you can’t, but Nokia N900 is supporting multitasking. Nokia N900 is just like a computer. The N900 comes with a large WVGA touchscreen with a slider and a landscape-oriented keyboard.

It’s high-resolution of 800x480 pixels way more than the iPhone's same-sized screen. N900's spec sheet has the same highlights as the N97, including a 5MP camera and 32GB storage, a new Linux-based Maemo 5 operating system.

Morph phone concept- NOKIA

I guess that Greenpeace report, slamming Nokia for the razor-sharp drop-off in environment friendly practices. Within a week of the report make public Nokia Evolve 3110, to some extent updated version of 3110 classic, with a “green” outlook.

Since then the headship of green initiatives was taken up by Nokia research division.

First somebody has got Nokia Eco Sensor concept, then Nokia Remade environmental phone. We’re receiving some nice-looking pictures of potential future phone designs. Today here is treated with one more attention-grabbing “green” phone concept – Nokia Morph.

The most important initiative behind Nokia Morph concept phone is utilized of nanotechnology based flexible materials, clear electronics and self-cleaning surfaces. These materials should make possible Nokia to produce a mobile device that “…may be flexible and stretchable, allowing the user to convert their mobile device into completely different shapes”.

You see in the picture different shaped devices, is really the same one mobile handset, which transforms itself into the solid shape according to the user wishes.

The concept was developed by Nokia research center in collaboration of Cambridge University and is on show at The Museum of Modern Art in New York.

HTC EVO 4G is really Big, gorgeous, and Blazingly

Sprint's HTC EVO 4G is its size: this smartphone is big. And so is its display, which measures a monstrous 4.3 inches. But pick up the EVO 4G and you'll be blown away by its swiftness. This is one lightning fast phone even if you can't experience the phone in all its 4G brilliance. HTC EVO 4G the fastest data speeds of any U.S. wireless device available today. 4G is still a latest technology and the network isn't so far available in many places.

Measuring 4.8 by 2.6 by 0.5 inches, the EVO 4G is bigger than any other smartphone. The EVO 4G weighs 6 ounces, which is obviously heavier. The transaction for that size is the giant 4.3-inch screen, which offers plenty of real estate for viewing Web pages and typing with the on-screen keyboard. It's as well dazzling and crystal clear, boasting a high resolution (800-by-480 pixels).

HTC EVO 4G features two cameras: an 8-megapixel camera on the back and a forward-facing 1.3 mega pixel camera. Front facing camera be able to be used for video conferencing, at the same time as the back camera can captures still photos and video clips. The camera can capture video clips at a resolution of up to 720p with snappish images and strong audio.

The EVO 4G offers one touch right of entry to Amazon's MP3 store for DRM free music downloads. It also features an FM radio, but you'll have to buy a headset with an antenna to take benefit of that feature. Video features include a YouTube and multiplicity of Sprint services, and including Sprint TV, which offers a mix of live channels and content that has been specially packaged for viewing on your mobile phone.

You can pay a premium for all that speed, though. Sprint is offering the HTC EVO 4G for $199.99 when you’ll sign two-year service conformity. That's an extremely levelheaded price for such sort of full-featured phone.

I mentioned about premium, well, you'll be paying it every month. Sprint needs a PDA/Smart Device service plan with the HTC EVO 4G, such while the carrier's $69.99-per-month all Data plan. Other than Sprint also requires a $10 per month Premium Data add on for its 4G service, and that add on plan is needed even you live in an area with 4G coverage or not.

The EVO 4G's features is exclusive, especially if you--like most people--live in an area without 4G service. The HTC EVO 4G is one of the most impressive smartphones available today.
