I have my hot little hands (OK, big hands) on three new smart phones/PDAs/Cameras/whatevers that look very impressive so far. I will report on each of them in more detail in the near future. The three I am playing with: Palm’s new Treo Pro (sleek, slim, light and running on Windows Mobile 6.1, unlocked GSM); the Blackberry Bold (for about a week the hottest Blackberry around, amazingly better visual presentation and a very nice physical thumb board, currently available from AT&T); and the very impressive (already my favorite Blackberry, the Storm (no physical keyboard, but multiple virtual keyboards, excellent graphics, and a touch screen you have to try to believe. It actually gives you a physical click response to a key press). Anyway, I will keep you posted on how they do as I test them in various situations and put them through their paces. tonalin cla gnc

A Bold New Blackberry

I have been playing with Blackberry’s new Bold for a month or so. I am very impressed with it. For my money, when it first came out it was the best piece of hardware released to date by Research in Motion. It remains an excellent telephone, but in my opinion eclipsed by the Storm, released shortly after the Bold. I will write about the Storm later.

The Bold does everything that previous Blackberry devices did, only better in most cases. The size and shape of the Bold does not radically differ from the last generation of devices, but it has a finish that looks more substantial and professional than the plastic-cased Curve.

The Bold comes with built-in GPS, a 2.0 MP camera, Blackberry Maps, video recording capability, Wi-Fi, the standard compliment of PDA programming (calendar, contacts, etc.) and handles mail with the typical Blackberry aplomb. It also provides excellent telephony (including a built-in speakerphone), SMS/MMS support and plays MP3 music.

Without a doubt, the Bold’s biggest upgrade relates to its display. The display has a half VGA resolution (480 x 360 pixels) and uses a backlit transmissive TFT LCD screen. The display is bright, deep and rich. I judge it as far and away the best display on any Blackberry as of the release of the Bold.

The Bold has a full qwerty-style keypad and I like the touch, feel and size of the keys.

The Bold initially came out only on the AT&T system and works with the AT&T Edge network to provide reasonably fast Internet support. It is a GSM phone and should prove to be “unlockable”, allowing you to use it with other GSM systems throughout the world once you have an unlocked unit.

RIM claims 4.5 hours of talk time and 13.5 hours of standby time for the Bold. Because of the way I use and test phones, I have never matched the amount of talk or standby time on any phone that the manufacturer claims for it and the Bold is no exception. I have no problem getting 2-3 days of use between charges though and that works fine for me. My Own Private Idaho move

Rim Storms Ahead With Its Newest Blackberry

Last week I wrote about the Blackberry Bold, identifying it as the best piece of hardware RIM (Research in Motion) (www.rim.com 007 Casino Royale film ) had produced to date.

I also noted that the Bold’s tenure at the top lasted about as long as a full moon, since RIM released the Storm shortly after the Bold. As good as the Bold is, I like the Storm better.

Why do I prefer the Storm? First of all, it provides all the services and capabilities of the Bold and more. It’s included camera produces 3.2 megapixel stills (compared to 2.0 for the Bold). The camera includes automatic flash, automatic focus and a 2x digital zoom.

The Storm also does videos, plays music, handles text messages, does email as well as any Blackberry device ever has (and I have thought Blackberry did the best job with email of any PDA or multi-function phone for some time).

Other features include built-in GPS, Blackberry Maps, SMS/MMS, Bluetooth and Micro SD card support. The phone works on Verizon’s 3G system (you can only get it with Verizon service for the present time).

Because it works on the 3G system, downloads run fairly quickly.

The large (3.25“) transmissive TFT LCD display supports over 65,000 colors and produces a resolution of 480 x 360.

What really sets the Storm aside, however, is the new SurePress touch screen technology employed by RIM in the device. The Dark Half download The Storm has no physical keyboard, no dial and no trackball. You navigate by pressure and motion on the touch screen. Although the screen presents a solid surface, when you press it, you feel a physical click response as confirmation of the completion of the contact. The large icons and virtual keys make it pretty easy to get around and to use the keyboard. The technology offers a lot of cool options as well. Deception movie download You can use the Storm in landscape or portrait mode. If you use it in portrait mode while making a phone call, you get a virtual telephone pad. If you use it in portrait mode while performing a text function (such as email), you get a keypad similar to that on the Pearl (2 characters per key) and relatively small keys. If you turn it to landscape mode, the Storm senses the position and gives you a full virtual QWERTY keypad with large keys.
