When the main business is wrapped in emerging markets, Nokia is therefore best to know a little KIRFs one thing – they are cheap clones of the handset that our Chinese friends often an end more quickly than the time it takes to ship the Nokia handset after notification. The members of the Nokia Board, Esko Aho, says that one in five mobile phones now sold worldwide (mainly in Asia, Latin America, and in some parts of Europe) is an illegal or unauthorized clone. certainly we saw over itself when browsing the Shenzhen market in China. Gartner claims the number even higher than 20 percent. Although we do not spoil it KIRFs their nasty software, comically similar branding (Nokla!), and the cheapo materials, clearly they have become a very serious problem for top-level mobile phone manufacturers. How do we see a serious January 27, when Nokia will publish its fourth quarter results.

We do not know, but we are going to learn … and something tells it’s awesome. DoCoMo broke this week that the three titans of industry has become an “enterprise collaboration” design “to provide mobile customers experience greater convenience and the fast-growing market in Northeast Asia region.” They are specifically say that they are eying the “international roaming services to businesses, LTE and other networks, smartphones and common platform” – and when we heard the “partnership” and “roaming” in the same sentence, not We can not help but wonder if it could be very good news traveling among the carriers involved.

    Even though games like Infinity Blade can be great fun on the iPhone, there’s no getting around the fact that touchscreen-centric, buttonless devices don’t offer the best gaming ergonomics. A modding project gone horribly right, however, might just fix that right up for all of us. Shane Wighton set out to build a robot to try and beat his favorite iPhone game, replete with a webcam and an Arduino setup, but in the process of doing so he “just realized that [he'd] made a mechanism to play tilt based phone games with a joystick.” Yes indeedy, one of the most awesome DIY gaming accessories was built by fluke as much as design. See it revolutionizing mobile gaming just after the break.

    I currently have a motorola cliq running android 1.5.

    Does the quality of the text to speech voices improve when the operating system is upgraded to 2.1?

    Also, what is the best text to speech app? I DON’T need an app that reads your texts. I need a text to speech app that speaks what you type into the phone, because I’m non-verbal.

    Pantech‘s bringing a new wrinkle to the mobile hardware space with its newly announced Vega Xpress handset. This 4-inch Android 2.2 beastie will come equipped with an unspecified amount of DDR2 RAM — yes, the stuff that usually goes into x86 laptop and desktop computers — which Pantech will have you believe is going to blow the competition out of the proverbial water. The company claims the new phone doubles 3D graphics performance relative to its previous best, while power efficiency is also said to be two to three times better. Other specs include a 5 megapixel autofocus camera, 802.11n WiFi, an 800 x 480 resolution, and a 1500mAh battery. Yours, provided you’re anywhere near Korea, some time soon.

    If you’re looking for something a little smarter than Tonino Lamborghini’s Spyder series of luxury phones (and we mean “smarter” in the operating system sense, not the wisdom of purchasing such a device), look no further than the Evoluzione. This puppy runs Android 2.1 (Froyo might be available in the future), but falls well short of its automotive namesake by sticking with a middling HVGA display of 3.2 inches and a 600MHz processor. Can you picture a Murcielago with a V-6? We can’t. Good news is that it costs a whole hell of a lot less, too: S$788, which works out to about $600.

Amazingly, this will mean that the network is some twenty years old by the time the agreement is up in 2013, after which they’ll either need to be ready with their CDMA replacement (bearing in mind that QChat already failed) — or we imagine they’ll need another contract renewal. Oh, and this won’t just be a run-out-the-clock situation, either: there’ll be at least some new hardware, with Sprint saying that “several” handsets are on tap for the first quarter of 2011 including the i886 (“stylish,” rugged, and landscape QWERTY) and the i686, an update of the i680 with improved waterproofing. Follow the break for the full press release.

    You remember iGloLEDset, right? How could you forget? The multicolored, WiFi-enabled strip of LEDs is basically a party waiting to happen — assuming you’re ready and willing to pony up the $300 entry fee — but until now, they’ve only been controllable with iOS devices. Well, good news, Android users: your ticket to ride the light wave just arrived, and iGloLEDset’s makers have celebrated with a little demo video you can see after the break.
