JavoFront.JPGJavoEdge recently released a Silicone case for the Cingular 2125. It provides shock protection and a solid grip to the phone. It boasts EAD (Enhanced Anti Dust) coating. Dust attraction was a problem plaguing other similar types of cases. It also comes in 5 colors or tints. I chose the Frosty Blue one for this review. The JavoEdge case showed up in a nice plastic container that didn’t require power tools to open as most packages of this type usually do.

For $25.95 from www.javoedge.com this case is nicer than the Naztech Cabrio leather case I’ve reviewed.

New Shipment Coming

Friday
Aug 4,2006

JE_LOGO_SMALL.gifRecently we’ve been having stock issues since we were updating our inventory system. Things got a little confusing during the transition and products were not replenished that needed to be. Our mother of all shipments is schedule to arrive on August 11th. You should be seeing most of our out of stock products coming back in stock. On top of that, you should be seeing some new products such as a new JAVOSkin for one of the most anticipated and requested model. I’ll give you a hint, it is thought as the rival to the Cingular 2125 as well as its sister in the USA market. Until then, I’ll keep you all updated if there are any changes on this issue!

1837_230x302.jpgThe FCC has approved two new models of Samsung phones for T-Mobile. They’ve got all the bells and whistles. Bluetooth, EDGE, quad-band GSM, 2 megapixel camera, etc.

  • T629: A slim slider that appears to be based on the Samsung D840. Includes a Micro SD slot and 70 MB of memory. The D840 has TV-out capabilities, but there is no indication whether this will be supported on the T629.
  • T519: An ultra slim candybar that appears to be a US version of the Samsung X820. The X820 is only 7 mm thick and features 80 MB of built-in memory. There is mention of a memory card (most likely Micro SD) in a document on this phone, however the X820 does not have a card slot.

    sc001.jpgEdvarcl Heng over at c|net Asia reports on the new upcoming Creative Zen Neeon 2 portable music MP3 player. Could this be the iPod killer (finally)? Competition is always a consumer’s dream so keep it up Creative! Note that this is a prototype model and it may not reflect on the final product.

    After the launch of the Creative Zen V (and info on the Zen V Plus), we were expecting Creative to lay low for a bit and ruminate on the ramifications of the upcoming Microsoft Zune player. Instead, the Singapore-based firm sprang a surprise on us with an MP3 player that’s geared towards Asian consumers.

    pict0069.jpgSome engadget fans were lucky enough to beta test this beauty, the T-Mobile UMA. So whats so different about this phone versus others? The ability to transfer phone calls utilizing UMA between traditional GSM networks and a compatible WiFi access point, that’s what. At this time, there are mixed reviews. Some report calls dropping during the GSM to WiFi transfer and poor call quality on WiFi mode. While others report flawless functionality. T-Mobile plans to charge a couple bucks of month for use of UMA. Regardless of cost or the quality of UMA, it is definity a great idea.
