Nokia has launched its 6260 slide, which is the first ‘S40′ (Series 40 software platform) with GPS, Wi-Fi and a 5 megapixel Carl Zeiss camera with flash. Pictures taken can be easily shared and uploaded to Nokia’s Share on Ovi service or other picture and video sharing site. Ideal for social networking addicts like myself! The Nokia 6260 slide is equipped with the latest 3G technology plus high speed uploads (HSUPA) and downloads (HSDPA). It also features quick access to search engines and points of interest straight from the home screen, the new 360° navi-key also allows a whole new mobile Internet experience.

Like a few other high street brands who have worked together with mobile firms in an attempt to produce a stylish ‘brand name’ phone, Hugo Boss has now decided to follow the same route. The Hugo Boss phone will be based on the Samsung F480. The functionalities of the phone will still remain the same (5.0-megapixel, touchscreen, HSDPA) but the internal software like the icons and wallpapers of TouchWiz interface has been changed to Hugo Boss style and also preloaded with a collection of ringtones from Hugo Boss. As pictured, there will also be a Hugo Boss bluetooth headset go with the phone.

We’ve talked quite abit about the new BlackBerry Storm has it was first unveiled, you will also remember we featured a hands on first look at the phone last month. This week we received an update from Tom over at Stuff.tv about their latest review of the new flagship and we highly recommend you watch it (below), it’s got great detail on some of the features which many were hoping to find out more about.
For example, RIM’s clickable touchscreen technology which really is quite something if you know how difficult it is for these to work properly. Also like we mentioned before, on the BlackBerry Storm you can create texts in the horizontal or landscape position without having the install an additional paid application, for some odd reason Steve Jobs never thought of this on the iPhone. The user interface and additional functions like GPS all seem to work pretty well, however the major downside in my view is the lack of WiFi which means you’re having to rely on HSDPA via Vodafone.
