In this case, probably not. I’ve heard rumblings from various media sources lately that a great majority of cell phone manufacturers are going to begin producing phones that accept a universal charger. I’ll let you recover from your disbelief. Continue Reading

Not yet my dear friend, but you will soon see the beloved Adobe application on most smartphones.  At the 2009 GSMA Mobile World Congress this week in Barcelona, Adobe announced the lightweight Flash Player 10 that will bring much of the same desktop functionality to the phone.  A vast improvment over the struggling Flash Light that just doesn’t provide the full functionality we all desire from our devices. In early 2010, expect to see phones with Windows Mobile, Google Android, Nokia S60, and the Palm garnishing the new Flash player.

iPhone lovers will have to continue to wait as the new version of Flash is still incompatible.  The standard line of “the two comapanies are working together” is all any Adobe or Apple officials are willing to say about the situation.   Whatever the case, Apple better work to get it in gear.  While the iPhone is a magnificent device, unmatched in elegance and style, the draw away from the phone do to functionality is getting more and more compelling.  Apple’s saving grace right now is the App Store with an unmatched collection of niche programs that provide users with any and every advanced funtiionality they can imagine.  This certainly begs the question; how long are iPhone users willing to wait for basic functionality?

The dPhone certainly lacks the ring off the tongue like that of the Apple iPhone but, if rumors are correct, Dell will enter the mobile phone market early in 2009.  Continue Reading

So there’s been tons of buzz lately about a new, snaller version of the most popular phone on the market, the Apple iPhone.  Rumors flew earlier in the year that this product would be released before Christmas, but with 2 days until Santa slids down the chimney, the only way of that happening will be a Christmas Miricle.

iPhone Nano & iPhone Shuffle

The fuel to this fire seems to come from XSKN who produces high-end covers for iPods, iPhones, and many other devices.  Before many Apple launches, they have “broken” the story and put up renderings of new products before anyone knew.  Some beleived this was just a publicity stunt, but they’ve been right before.  If you check out their website you will plainly see they have iPhone Nano labeled as a category.  Whether they are just hoping to get into the game early or if they have a good source, we won’t know for awhile.

This also makes us here at Go Go Gadget Boy wonder if the less loud rumors of an iPhone Shuffle may also come to fruition?  If this was 2 years ago, I think there’d be a good chance, where tiny phones were IT.  Now people are realizing that small phones are ridiculously hard to text on and not much fun to find.
