New Mobile Phones Showcased

Posted by timothy on from the future-approaches-on-little-cat-feet dept.

An anonymous reader writes: "This is a report at VR-Zone showing many new and upcoming models of mobile phones with features like color LCDs, GPRS and digital cameras built-in from major Telco companies like NTT DoCoMo, Panasonic, Kyocera, Samsung and Sony Ericsson. 3D Graphics animation software design houses for example discreet, NewTek and Alias|Wavefront and video editing card manufacturers like Pinnacle and Canopus have their booths there too." There are too many links to list here separately, but I especially liked the pictures of products from NTT DoCoMo and Sony Ericsson.

    Jebus tap dancing christ, NEW FREAKIN PHONES.

    At last my life has meaning again. No I can get a phone that plays MP3s, video clips and warns me if my fly is down.

    Sorry, I just drank five too many Jolts.

  2. I really want a cell phone by PhysicsGenius · · Score: 2, Funny

    but I just don't feel justified in buying one. It's not that I don't need it--my wife's locked herself out of the car more times than I count, sometimes leaving a baby inside. Also, I'm on the road a lot attending conferences and whatnot and I like to keep in touch. The trouble is, none of the cellphones on the market provide source-code for the binaries that run on the phones. While I may feel a modicum of temporary relief over the safety of my family, I know that in the larger picture I'd just harming them trading away their freedom.

  3. It's the same old thing by Clue4All · · Score: 3, Funny

    Not surprising, all of the new phones have a mouthpiece, a speaker, and numbers inbetween with which to dial. I feel that the phone industry needs to be revolutionized, and I think that a phone inserted in the rectum would do just that.

    I don't know, I think most of these fancy new phones are ridiculous. Do you really need a PDA in your phone? No. Text messaging? Nope. The *only* thing a good cellular phone needs to do is transmit voice and color video. Anything else is just fluff.

    When I saw "products by Docomo and Sony" I couldn't help it... My thoughts just went "booth babes"... I clicked the links so fast I didn't even think about what I was doing...

    The site was a bit on the slashdotted side... but i insisted. And guess what. The guys actually took pictures of the phones! of the silly phones! Now who on earth goes all the way to Asia to get pictures of phones? Boy, I sure liked E3 better than this fair...
