With the market saying 'no' to Nokia's Ovi Store, what do you think can be done to change this?The folks over at Phones4u have a page listing about Sony Ericsson’s C905, the 8.1 MegaPixel camera that we first spoke about back in June.
“Early October” they say. There’s no word on pricing yet, but we’re trying to dig up our contacts to get additional information on the same.
I just received this in my inbox from the Sony Ericsson guys. They’ve just announced the new Bluetooth Car Speakerphone HCB-108 that comes with an insane amount of stand-by time. How much? A whole whopping month of stand-by time and upto 25 hours of talk time.
Use it on your visor or keep it on your dashboard, it’s a great device for the big/small family car.
Here’s what the sent in:
