rumor

Here is another rumor concerning the Google phone: according to a UBS analyst HTC plans to release 50,000 handsets running on the Google's upcoming mobile OS by the end of 2007.

Although most analysts believe that the search giant will release only the operating system, if the Google/HTC partnership really exists, we all can expect first Gphones to appear sometime in 2008.

Here is a photo of new Nokia handset that has just been approved by the FCC.

Apparently, it is the 8800e model, a glossy candybar phone with a sliding cover that covers the keypad. There are no specification details available right now, but we expect to find out more on October 16th, when confidentiality agreement filed with the FCC expires.

Here is a new, groundless, yet very interesting rumor for you, about some new iPhone Extreme, probably an upcoming version of the famous device, with 16GB of memory, 3G connectivity and GPS functionality.

The whole idea comes from a line in the source code on the Apple iPhone Feedback Page, where the device is mentioned (see the picture).

Rumor has it that Negri Electronics plans to release their Tilt 8925 and 8900 Windows Mobile smartphones for AT&T on September 30th and has already started taking pre-orders.
