Nokia N82 Black version

The Finland giant Nokia silently released the highly expected and speculated Nokia N82 Black version. The phone appeared nowhere else but in the USA Nokia online store with an "Unlocked" status. The sleek Nokia N82 Black version is already available for purchase at a price of $629.00 with free shipping for USA.Let's refresh your memory with the Nokia N82 main features, starting with the HSDPA with video calls and quad-band GSM support. The 100MB of integrated memory is complemented by the microSD memory slot. The 2.4" 16M color QVGA TFT display is among the other highlights.Nokia N82, a phone we reviewed in detail, is pretty much identical in hardware to the N95. It has 5 megapixel autofocus camera with Carl Zeiss optics, capable of capturing 30fps MPEG4 videos at VGA resolution, and has a TV-out port to watch those on your TV set.

The most significant difference to the Nokia N95 is however the built-in xenon flash which highlights the photo-centric nature of the Nokia N82, as well as the screen auto rotation.

LG Wine Phone

Yes, she is the prettiest woman to have ever held a new cell phone model, for me anyway. The new LG fashion phone she is dubbed LG Wine. Yes, it rhymes with Shine and it’s also cheaper at 300,000 KRW or $322. Unlike the LG Shine and the LG Prada, the Wine has very little to boast about in terms of its specs. It is equipped with a 1.3MP camera. The LG Chocolate and its several iterations had 1.3MP cameras for the longest time, and it has been among the top complaints, along with the touch controls, of users of such a sophisticated phone.The Wine phone or LG SV300 will be available for Koreans starting May 25. As a successor of LG’s successful fashion phones - e.g. Chocolate, Shine, Prada - it has a distinctly feminine appeal to it. I would assume with its relatively low price and understated sophistication, it’s the younger women that will be most attracted to the phone.
