Belch Carbon-Fibre iPhone case


I don't have an iPhone but it's one sexy and sleek gadget that I admire a lot. If I had one, I reckon I'd be one of those paranoid types, you know, one that's always worried about dropping and damaging such an awesome looking device. I'm not saying the iPhone isn't well made or sturdy, but given its rather large screen area and a back cover made from plastic, dropping it could do some damage, I reckon.

And you can't just put the iPhone in some el cheapo case/cover because you'd just ruin its good looks which is one of the phone's biggest draw cards in the first place. Surely there has to be some sort of compromise.

And there is in the form of a 100% aerospace grade carbon fibre. Anyone that knows anything about carbon fibre will have heard of its ultra lightweight and super strong properties. This particular case is no different - weighing in at just 7g, it features cut-outs for the screen, docking and headphones ports, side controls, camera, and home button which means the iPhone should never have to be removed from its protective sheath.

Thinly constructed yet ultra durable, the case measures just 119 x 64 x 15mm to ensure that only a few additional millimetres are added to the dimensions of the iPhone itself!

Samsung x Emporio Armani Mobile

September 25th 2008 05:15
Samsung M7500 Emporio Armani Night Effect


Samsung has teamed up once again with renowned fashion designer Giorgio Armani to deliver a new "Night Effect" mobile targetted at the young consumers with active and fashionable lifestyles.

Cool or tacky, depending on your point of view, the minimalistic looking phone is transformed at night when a LED light on the side lights up in red, green or blue colour every time the user is called, or makes a call - thus its "Night Effect" name.

The signature illuminating LED around the edge was inspired by the famed designer's trips to Tokyo, Japan to open a new ten-storey Armani concept store which is lit-up on the outside with decorative neon lights in the shape of bamboo leaves.

The Armani Night Effect supports quad-band GSM and HSDPA in a design that features a slim waistline and brushed metal front with a 2.2" OLED display. Other features include a 3.2 megapixel camera (autofocus only), Bluetooth, FM radio and expandable memory via a microSD card slot.

Armani branding is all over the new handset with "Emporio Armani" just underneath the screen, illuminated on the side and the famous eagle "GA" logo on the back - great if you're a brand fan or just simply over the top if you're not.

Google Android


The first mobile / cellphone powered by search giants Google's Android software system is due to be unveiled at a news conference on September 23 by US mobile carrier T-Mobile. A phone made by Taiwanese firm HTC will be powered by the Android software which Google says will make it much easier and appealing to surf the internet with.

It is expected that a handful of T-Mobile and Google execs will be on hand to showcase the new smartphone for reporters, analysts and some lucky tech bloggers invited to the New York event where the highlight will undoubtedly be the hands-on time with the smartphone that is more internet-friendly than any other.

While T-Mobile is yet to confirm a price for the Google-powered phone, a release date for October has already been hotly tipped on cyberspace with the carrier expected to subsidise part of the phone's cost for buyers who agree to subscribe to the carrier's mobile service - much like the Apple iPhone over in the US.

It seems Google can do no wrong at the moment and everything they touch seems to turn into gold - well, at least for heavily marketed products such as the Android - so one would expect this upcoming smartphone will be the first of many to run on the Android system.
