HTC announced 2 new devices at MWC in Barcelona today and of course Noah from PhoneDog.com was there to get the details.
Both look pretty nice with the new TouchFlo system but the Touch Pro 2 just looks great.

Palm Pre Update

From earlier posts you’ll know I’ve been following the Palm Pre since its announcement at CES earlier in the year. Noah from PhoneDog.com is currently at the MWC in Barcelona and got a hands on demo of the Pre. From the demo the Pre definitely looks like it’s going to live up to the hype and seems to be still on target to hit the street in the early summer.

Nokia N97 makes my phone choice list

Joe — Mon, 16 Feb 2009 20:51:53 +0000

Last month I posted how I want a new phone and since then I’ve added other posts with updates on the different phones.

Today I’m adding the Nokia N97 to the list. I’ve just watched Noah from PhoneDog.com get a hands on demo of the N97 at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. The phone looks pretty good and packs in some big specs. It’ll be interesting to see how is fairs in the real world after the huge disappointment of the N96.

But anyway I’ll look forward to seeing it launched in May and hopefully I’ll get my hands on one to see what it’s like and again if the good people of Nokia want to send me one to have a look at I’ll be very happy to accept.
