Motorola a finalement dévoilé son i1 (ex-Opus One), ayant la particularité d’être le premier mobile Push-To-Talk. Comprenez qu’il utilisera en fait le réseau Nextel Direct Connect de l’opérateur Sprint pour permettre à ses utilisateurs d’utiliser le mobile un peu comme un talkie walkie. A côté de ça, il dispose d’un écran tactile HVGA 3.1″, d’un capteur 5 megapixels (avec flash), d’un slot microSD, du Bluetooth, d’Opera Mobile Mini ainsi que de la technologie Swype. Il est également résistant à la poussière, à la pluie, à la pluie, et j’en passe.
Par contre, inutile d’espérer que ce téléphone soit disponible à l’île Maurice avant la fin 2011.
The Motorola H17 Bluetooth Earset features the easy-to-use RapidConnect on-off switch. Flip open to talk; flip closed to end the call and save battery. Includes CrystalTalk dual-mic technology for excellent audio. Lightweight, comfortable fit. List Price: See Details $99.99 Price: $41.99 Shipping: FREE SB Link Address

Sony Ericsson has put India ahead of UK for the launch of their most awaited handset Xperia X10. This set would be available in India on 26th March 2010 i.e. first day first show of Xperia X10 is on next Friday. Then this phone would make its debut in the month of April in UK.
This would be first Android based smartphone from Sony Ericsson in India. Ericsson fans have been waiting for this phone from a long time. Reasons that make this phone worth a buy are:
1GHz processor.
384 MB RAM.
8 Megapixels Camera.
Capacitive Touchscreen.
4.0 inches of Screen.
1 GB internal space along with 8GB card in it (Support up to 16GB card).
Android OS 1.6.
Sony would be offering Android update very soon then people can upgrade their OS from 1.6 to 2.1. This would make amazing hardware specs supported by great software to be exploited to its fullest.
It is expected to be priced somewhere near to Rs 30,000. It would give direct competition to HTC HD2 which has same processor but higher ram but Xperia win in term of better camera and lesser prices. Let’s see next moth is also going to witness more smartphone in Indian market especially Motorola Milestone which is already a big success in US with the name Droid.
Oh, bollocks! After hearing for days that Verizon Wireless would be pushing out the highly anticipated Android 2.1 update to its stable of Droid users, along comes this. Internal company documentation clearly states that the aforementioned update won’t be going down today, and there’s no clear indication of when it will. To quote:
“The OTA software update for the Droid by Motorola is TBD. A new date will be communicated as soon as possible.
The 3/18 OTA software update will not happen as planned. A new date will be communicated as soon as possible.”
We knew things were just too quiet after the noon hour, and now we know why. An impromptu support group meeting has been scheduled for 1:30PM ET, though we’re hearing the location is still being decided…
Google launched the Nexus One back in early January. Running the latest version of the Android OS. It was a very advanced phone. Outing the Droid as the best phone around. Now about 74 days after being launched the Nexus One is a failure. Conservative estimates point to only 135,000 phones being shipped. In similar time frames after introduction both the iPhone and Droid sold a million plus units each. The major question that should be asked is why such low sales for the Nexus One?
The answer seems simple, but it is a bit complex. The first major issue is that it was launched on T-Mobile, the fourth largest mobile carrier in the US. This cuts the possible install base that they could reach down to only 34 million. Typical smartphone users are increasing, but they are still only a percentage of the overall user base. The second issue was that is was launched for sale on Google’s website. The online only offer even furthers to reduce the number of people who will get the phone. Most cell phone subscribers purchase their phones through a brick and motor store or through the carriers website. Since it’s launch the Nexus One has finally hit AT&T’s wireless network bands. To be fair you can’t by the phone with an AT&T contract, yet. Now Sprint has joined the Nexus One bandwagon, and that makes four. Verizon’s Nexus One was announced back on launch with a spring 2010 release date.
With the Nexus One slated to appear on all the major carriers will it see increased sales? Possibly, but not in any significant numbers. The problem is by the time it will hit these networks new and better Android devices will be already on them or just about to launch.
Verizon is rumored to be a few weeks away from launching a new HTC Android handset called the Incredible. The Incredible is supposed to be running a 1GHz Snapdragon processor underclocked to 768 MHz, with 512 DRAM and around 6GB of Flash RAM with an MicroSD expansion slot. The camera has been upgraded to 8MP from the Nexus One’s 5MP camera. The underclocked processor may turn off users, but it should be able to be restored back to it’s 1GHz speed with some 3rd party code. The incredible will also be sold in Verizon’s store along side the Droid and other Android phones. In my opinion this is a better buy then the Nexus One, unless the N-1 is priced very attractively (which I don’t think will happen).
Sprint is getting the HTC Supersonic later this summer. The Supersonic is going to be the first 4G Android handset running on Sprint’s WiMax network. It is supposed to be running a 1GHz Snapdragon processor with 1GB of ROM, it’s been called an HD2 running Android 2.1. More information is supposed to be released at CITA when Sprint is rumored to announce the phone officially.
Now AT&T has just got it’s first android handset the Motorola Backflip. It has been gutted horribly, Google search ahs been replaced with Yahoo and you can only install apps from the Android Marketplace. This to me screams like AT&T wanted to get on the Android bandwagon and phone this in. I think it’s just iPhone love AT&T has, it will be interesting to see if a true Android device actually hits the store. T-Mobile has had the Nexus One from launch and it has not gather much sales. Will we see it in the stores? Who knows, but I have a feeling another powerful phone is being prepped for T-Mobile for a later launch. I consider AT&T and T-Mobile non factors for true Nexus One carrier support and I don’t think it will find a home on any of the other two carriers.
The Nexus One has failed, long live the Incredible/Supersonic.
