It’s got a 8 hour battery life for talk time, it comes with multiple ear cushions to get the right fit, and it also comes with a charging case, travel charger and carrying case.

Hello Kitty Solar Power Charger to Use With Your HK Cell Phone

If you got yourself one of them then you might want to get this Hello Kitty Solar power charger to use with it.

AOL MyMobile Beta for Smartphones Rips Off Yahoo Go 3.0, But Who Cares

In an effort to keep their email users from leaving, AOL has released a cool new software app for smartphones called AOL MyMobile Beta. Compatible with most popular Windows Mobile devices, like the Blackjack II, it lets you access AIM, AOL Mail, Mapquest, AOL pictures, AOL Cityguide, Moviefone, your AOL contacts, and the weather all via a neat and organized app. Did we say neat? It’s actually very familiar - they no doubt took cues from Yahoo Go 3.0 which lets smartphones users access Yahoo popular services like Yahoo Mail, Flickr, etc, using a similarly styled interface. Both Yahoo Go 3.0 and AOL MyMobile are currently in Beta and have some kinks to work out, but they are must haves being free and all - especially if you are a Yahoo Mail or AOL mail user that has a compatible Windows Mobile Device. However our guess is that Yahoo Go 3.0, being a 3rd incarnation, is probably the superior app. Anyway, this gets us thinking - forget Microsoft buying Yahoo, we want AOL & Yahoo to merge so we can have the best of all of their free services meshed together.

VEPTU the VERTU Knock-off Sports Diamonds But We’re Skeptical

Would you like a VEPTU phone? No, no I didn’t spell that wrong, I know, you think I’m saying VERTU… Well I’m not. So here we go again with that old saying that imitation is the best form of flattery. The VEPTU is a luxury mobile cell phone that looks awfully like the VERTU by Nokia. The company is based in China, gee what a shock. The VEPTU looks distinctly like the VERTU in design and is supposedly gold plated in 18 or 24 carat (I’m sure they mean carrots). There is even a model with diamonds. It has all the typical bells and whistles of any average cell phone these days but the one thing it does lack is the concierge service VERTU offers their customers. [Read more]

Personal Pocket Translator Looks like a Blackberry but Isn’t

From far you may think this is a pretty old looking Blackberry. But no it’s not its actually, it’s a Personal Pocket Size Translator that translates up to 6 languages: English, French, German, Italian, and Spanish. It will also supply you with the local date of where you are, a calculator, and the exchange rate. For $19.99 this is a steal and certainly worth it when you go to London and wonder why that tea just cost you $25 American dollars. On an side note, I think the on-line store selling this device could have used it themselves when they spelled “Personal Pocket Translator - 6 Languges” wrong on their product page.
