Nokia is hinting at the upcoming Nokia N900, through the medium of YouTube oddness. Its teaser video makes it look like the phone could decide to chew its way through your trousers and stab you in the earhole. We like it. We’ve already seen a prototype Nokia N900, and it’s a slick-looking, speedy-moving fox. The …

Where in the world is the Nokia N900? We’ve been drooling over this Maemo-powered smart phone for what feels like forever, but it looks like we’ll have to wait a week longer. We’ve had our hands on the N900 to preview the Firefox Mobile Web browser, and we’ve gawked at Nokia’s slightly frightening N900 promo video. But we want to …

The Motorola Milestone is making grown men cry and young girls scream over in the US, where it’s called the Motorola Droid. It’s the first phone to use the 2.0 ‘Eclair’ release of Google’s Android operating system, and its stunning screen and slide-out Qwerty keyboard has our colleagues at CNET US swooning.

Carphone Warehouse has kicked the Sony Ericsson Satio out of its shops, after too many customers reported software problems with the smart phone, Reuters reports. You can still find the Satio on Carphone’s Web site, but no tariffs are available to buy. The Warehouse said, in a statement, that the Satio had “issues” which may “result in a customer experience …

The cheapest mobile phone contract in Britain right now will lock you in for more time than the minimum sentence for burglary — but it’s only a fiver a month. Orange’s ‘Orange 5’ plan offers 50 minutes and 50 texts a month for £4.89, and throws in a free Nokia 2330. We haven’t reviewed the 2330, but Nokia can be …

RIM wants to elbow its way into the pockets of touchscreen-lovers, but it didn’t make much headway with the original BlackBerry Storm. Plenty of bugs and performance issues led to a flawed drizzle rather than a perfect storm. Now RIM hopes the BlackBerry Storm2 will prove a more reliable weather event. The new touchscreen smart phone is coming first to …

We just wrote our mobile Web browser showdown and browsers are already improving — not that we want to take all the credit, but Opera is releasing Opera Mobile 10 beta for Windows Mobile today.
