Checking the stats on MobileBurn, in the six hours that my Apple iPhone article has been up, it has received as many hits as any other release story from CES has received in the full 24 hour period after publishing. That’s on track for four times the popularity of its nearest competing story, the Nokia [...]

Looks like Samsung will be unveiling two new handsets for the US market at CES next week – on the 8th at 10:30am, to be exact. Both devices will feature stereo Bluetooth, a microSD memory card slot, a 2.0 megapixel camera, and will be slim devices (as is a regular occurrence with Samsung), though one [...]

[Update: Thanks Kent and Richard. Keep it coming!] [Update 2: Jenith (a former MobileBurn employee and fellow Australian) weighs in, as does James Kendrick.] Today is a travel day, as Ze Frank would say, and while packing up for the impending journey I am faced with the decision of what gadgets to take with me.

There will probably be others added between those as well, so don’t take the above as definitive. Also, [...]

One of the hardest parts of my job is remembering model numbers of handsets. For a long time, confusing numbering has been the norm, but finally some of the marketing folk that work with handset manufacturers are waking up to the fact that model names, rather than numbers, are the way to go. Samsung are [...]

To begin, I’m not one to bad mouth convergence. While I have no real use for a music phone, I certainly don’t have a problem with manufacturers combining an audio player and a phone – it does seem like a good match. What I do have a problem with, is the fact that many are [...]

I was interviewed today by a PR firm that handles Japanese carrier NTT DoCoMo, one of the largest and most technologically advanced network operators in the world, and one of the questions asked raised a very interesting point to me. NTT DoCoMo is rolling out two smartphones, a Blackberry and the HTC Z, and I [...]
