Philips Presents: X800 TouchScreen Cellphone

In these past few weeks there was a "rumor" or a "buzz" about Philips and her new xenium cellphone that is about to give a serious fight against apple's iPhone.

Philips announced that they're new X800 cellphonw will have a "e2e" (edge-to-edge)touchscreen, 256K colors, just like apple's.
Some of the features; the X800 have are a enabled Wi-Fi, browser, orientation sensor (familiar someone?)



















Works on a GSM Network, has a size of: 240 x 400 pixels, Polyphonic (64 channels) audio speaker, has vibration, bluetooth, USB and a camera of: 2 MP, 1600x1200 pixels.

But, this iPhone wannabe has something really missing - he'll not be a 3G cellphone.
And besides the Dutch company is pushing all its efforts on the asian/far east market — don't rush to buy or even to see this X800 on the U.S anytime soon.





















Philips still has no release date on the X800 neither a price.

3.5mm Audio Jack Patent

If you're a "klutz" according to the reviewer at CNET; this next thing is a great buy.
I am talking about a 3.5mm (standard) audio jack patent - what it basiclly do is saving your jack plug of any audio devices. When too much force is appled, Replug simply detaches from itself, preventing high damage to your audio device. Simply reattach plug to tip and you’re ready to go. your audio jack is been saved thanks to this great, small gadget.











What this audio patent device really does is to transforming any 3.5mm audio jack into a breakaway connection which protect your audio jack from the rigors of daily use. It is comprised of a plug tip and a body which grips the tip using a resilient elastomeric ring. Simply reattach plug to tip and you’re ready to start fresh.














Replug has came out with some cool and handy audio cables and plug tips for all kinds of audio devices, they now also have: a breakaway headphone adapter for a regular audio device with 3.5mm audio connection, besides that they are planing on making a whole series for the iPhone,
such as: Headphone adapter, Extension cable, Special Plug tips for iPhone and more. All of these will be available in June 2008.

New 3D Game for iPhone - Raging Thunder Demo

Check out how much power does the iPhone has for runing games with high 3D quality, here comes the Raging Thunder demo that should make you giddy for what's to come. Not only does the game use the accelerometer, which acts as a more-than-adequate wheel, everything's rendered in pretty decent OpenGL 3D graphics as well. It's no GTA IV, but you can download it from Installer.app now. Will We be seeing Multiplayer games over the iPhone internet soon? Thats Nice :)
