Nokia officially announced its first touchscreen handsetthe Nokia 5800 XpressMusic.Nokia 5800 XpressMusic is the first mobile device running the 5th Edition of Nokia’s Series 60 OS. And with it comes two new features that Nokia’s trying to promote as the handset’s strengths.
New Features
First, there’s the Media Bar, which Nokia calls “a handy drop down menu that provides direct access to music and entertainment, including favourite tracks, videos and photos.” It also offers a direct link to the Internet and online sharing sites. Then there’s the Contacts Bar, which again according to Nokia, “lets consumers highlight four favorite contacts on their home-screen and, through a single touch, track a digital history of recent text messages, emails, phone logs, photos and blog updates.”
Music and Multimedia
The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic comes with all the basics you’d expect to find in a multimedia-oriented handset: graphic equalizer, 8GB memory, support for all main digital music formats, and a 3.5mm jack. Nokia also claims that it will have built-in surround sound stereo speakers that offer the industry’s most powerful sound.
Touchscreen Display, Camera and Connectivity
The touchscreen display on the Nokia 5800 XpressMusic measures 3.2-inches and has a 16:9 aspect ratio, which makes it widescreen and capable of 30 FPS video playback and recording. Recording can be done, of course, via the built-in 3.2 megapixel camera with Carl Zeiss optics and dual LED flash. It comes with one-touch sharing to Ovi, Flickr, or Facebook. Input is done via its virtual alphanumeric keypad, virtual QWERTY keyboard, a pen stylus, or plectrum (otherwise known as a flatpick, for “true music enthusiasts”). GPS, as well as Bluetooth, 3G, and Wi-Fi will be found on board.
Release Date and Pricing
The Nokia 5800 XpressMusic will be released some time in Q4 2008, and will retail for 279 EUR (about $385 USD) before taxes and subsidies. The version with “Comes With Music,” meanwhile, won’t be available until next year, for a still to be determined price. And as an XpressMusic device, it will be available in Blue and Red variants.

Leap Wireless, owner of Cricket, announced today the introduction of Cricket PAYGo presented as a non-stop and unlimited prepaid wireless service.
With this daily pay-as-you-go offering, Cricket’s users can enjoy the benefits of traditional pre-paid services at a convenient price. For the moment, there are only three mobile phones that can be bought together with Cricket PAYGo: the Cricket EZ candybar, Samsung MyShot and UTStarcom CDM7126 (the last two being clamshells). None of the three phones are high-end, but Cricket was never the carrier to offer these kinds of devices.
Cricket PAYGo comes with the choice of three rate plans: $1 per day, $2 per day or $3 per day. The cheapest rate plan includes unlimited local calling plus “voicemail, caller ID and three-way calling”, while the expensive one (if we can call $3 expensive) adds unlimited text / picture messaging as well as unlimited US long distance calls, international text to more than 100 countries, and mobile Web and directory assistance. Consumers will be charged only for the days they make use of the service, of course.
Cricket PAYGo phones can be found in about 1,600 locations from across the US. By the end of this week, the handsets should also be sold via Cricket stores and dealers from Cincinnati/Dayton, Houston and Savannah/Hilton Head.
SocialLife is a new application from Verizon Wireless which acts as a mobile gateway that connects users to popular social networking sites.

But where’s the support for Facebook,Twitter,and other sites people actually use?
It was only a couple of weeks ago that iPhone OS 2.1 officially launched. The next version iPhone 2.2 and there’s a beta 1 available for developers. What are we going to get from the new version? We don’t exactly know, but since Apple is moving so fast we should expect some decent changes to emerge.
