HTC Mondrian: HTC’s first Windows Phone 7 device?
Windows Phone 7 was one of the big announcements at this years Mobile World Congress and ever since then we’ve been chomping at the bit to get hands on with Microsoft’s shiny new mobile operating system. Odd, considering we’ve yet to see any official devices that will actually run the operating system! Thankfully, the helpful bunch over at XDA-Developers have been digging through a leaked Windows Phone 7 ROM and unearthed a new device called the HTC Mondrian.

Could this be the LG Windows Phone 7
We have already seen an early version of a Windows Phone 7 device from LG but could this new leaked image be the updated version or even the final product?

How to Access Email on the Move
A few years ago, as the possibilities of the mobile internet were only just becoming clear, one of the ‘killer applications’ that was often talked about was the ability to get email on the move. Most commentators were of agreement, that being able to access email on the go would be the one feature that would really push the sale of mobile internet enabled devices. These days, we seem to take the access to email wherever, whenever, for granted.

Nokia release first batch of N8 photo samples!
Nokia were quite late to join the 8.0 Megapixel party with the Nokia N86 8MP and whilst the Symbian slider was one of the best camera phones we’d seen, other manufacturers were already breaking new ground in image resolution and video capture. Now, once again Nokia are set to launch their first entrant in the 12 Megapixel space whilst two of their key rivals, Samsung and Sony Ericsson , have both had 12 Megapixel camera phones on the market for over 6 months. Of course, the N8 has some key advantages over its rivals (HD Video/ HDMI output/ all new Symbian OS) but how does the still camera measure up?
