Android handsets are cool, but their prices are way too high for an average earner. That’s why Orange UK has started selling its affordable and budget-wise android San Francisco handset for only $156. Specifications included are 3.5-inch touchscreen display, 3MP camera, 150MB internal, 2 GB external memory using microSD card, Wi-fi connectivity, Bluetooth, 3G, Mp3 player and FM radio. Sad to say but this Orange San Francisco handset is powered by Android 2.1 only.

Nokia’s Latest Mobile Concept: Nokia Kinetic

Vinson — Tue, 20 Jul 2010 15:26:39 +0000

While browsing the net early this morning, I’ve found this nokia’s latest concept of mobile called Nokia Kinetic. Jeremy Innes-Hopkins is the creative designer of this latest technology, the said concept is that when the phone receives a call or a message, there will be an electromagnet force in the base of the phones and the weight will be transferred causing the device to stand up. To dismiss a call, the user can simply give the phone a gentle tap, causing it to fall back down again and return to standby mode. As of now there are no confirmations whether the design will come true, but this concept was really cool isn’t?
