Sony Walkman keeps on running
We managed to tear our eyes off the new Nokia N97 just long enough to check out the specs on one of its main competitors next year: a new Sony Ericsson multimedia mogul. No name yet, but we know it’ll have a slide out keypad, Wi-Fi, and an 8.1 megapixel camera to rival the company’s Cybershot range. More news is expected in January.

Nokia Messaging to get RIM scared
As well as showing off the bleeding edge N97, Nokia’s unveiled several new services this week, including an update of Nokia Maps, and now Nokia Messaging, which will have BlackBerry owners breaking a sweat. It’s expected for both S60 and S40 devices and provides integrated access to popular email and instant messaging services, and will even tote push email.

Code on the fly
Run your own website, or dabble in a cheeky spot of coding (we won’t tell anyone)? Phones have been powerful enough to edit pages for a long time, but now those specs are being tapped to their full extent with S60 HTML Editor. If you have a Symbian S60 OS phone (like a Nokia Nseries) you can tweak your blog anywhere, and you can find out just how by following through the link.

mobile.blackberry.com gets relaunched
RIM’s been busy tweaking this week. After news of a Storm software upgrade, and now its web portal for BlackBerry addicts, mobile.blackberry.com, has just had a makeover too. The new look is simple, clean and more accessible than ever before - now all we need is enough apps for the BlackBerry Storm to rival the iPhone.

Hello Moto ROKR
Today’s a bad day for phone launches if you’re not Nokia, but Motorola caught our attention with its new slide out music mobile, the ROKR EM35. The Motomusic player software’s on board, as well as virtual stereo surround sound and CrystalTalk for ultra-clear audio while you chatter. Plus, it’s a bright and cheery little blighter too. More news when we hear it.
