Now, we've seen quite a few fake Nokia N95 devices. However, this time Chinese handset makers cloners went one step beyond. The so called “MM95″ is, you guessed that correctly, much smaller than the original device. However, it does keep the dual-sliding mechanism and therefore looks quite nice. Even though I shouldn't praise fake devices, I must admit this baby (literally) rocks.
Specs wise, it's a feature phone, boasting dual-band GSM (900/1800 MHz) radio, two cameras (one on front and one on the back), and 2.2-inch QVGA screen. As for the size, it's not as small as that cute Nokia 5200 toy, but it's small enough — the mini N95 measures 76.1

Opera Software has ambitious plans to go beyond the browser. They already rule the mobile web browser market and they think it's about time their software is turned into platform. That being said, they've just announced support for Google Gears in their desktop and mobile browsers.
The inclusion of Gears in Opera's main browsing products supports Opera's vision of transforming the browser into a full platform for applications, regardless of device.
I'm not sure Opera Mini can handle Gears at this stage, but Opera Mobile 9.5 certainly could. Opera's CEO Jon von Tetzchner confirmed that, saying: “The forthcoming Opera Mobile 9.5 with Gears will usher in a new era for the Web on mobile devices. Together, these products will create new ways to bring applications to life on mobile devices. Developers will be able to use this along with Opera Dragonfly to develop and debug compelling applications for any connected environment.”
Amen to that!

Gresso's Avantgarde collection recently got two White Diamond members. The two new handsets aren't designed for everyone, or at least not many of us can afford even the less high-priced of the two.
White diamonds, casing made of 200-year-old African blackwood and a titanium keyboard base plate are there to say “Are you sure this phone is for you?” In addition, the more high-priced model (Gresso Royal White Diamond) has all 23 keys capped to a total of 23.5 carats of white diamonds, while the “cheapo” Gresso White Diamond model sports diamonds only on the navigation keys.
The good thing about Gresso's handsets is that they run Windows Mobile 6, meaning that unlike Vertu and Mobiado model, their functionality can be further extended with third-party apps. So in some sense, these babies sport both beauty and the brains. Other specs include tri-band GSM radio, 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth and a microSD slot.
The Gresso White Diamond costs around 9,000 EUR, while its more high-priced brother, Gresso Royal White Diamond, could be yours for 33,000 EUR. Only 200 of these will be made.

Sony Ericsson phones may already be known as one of the top choices among mobile gamers, but that's obviously not enough for both Swedish and Japanese shareholders, especially in a time when they're facing the competition from Nokia's NGage platform.
The handset maker has reportedly signed a deal with California-based GestureTek, which we already covered in the past and which uses the handset's camera to sense movement. The idea is to bring the Wii-like gaming experience to camera-equipped Sony Ericsson phones, which don't have an accelerometer built inside (like the K850i and W910i models, for instance); and to ultimately establish Sony Ericsson as a mobile gaming brand.
We'll watch this closely, have no doubt. In the meantime, if you need a reason to rejoice, you should know that among the first titles that will use the faux-accelerometer are Crash Banicoot and Super Monkey Ball.

Three days ago we posted a leaked Nokia 7310 Classic press photo. Now it's time for some real-world experience. As you're about to see, this baby looks much superior live and I've no doubt Nokia will sell tons of these. The materials used look just right and the overall size of the device (or at least thickness) makes the 7310 Classic fit perfectly in one's hand. Enjoy the photos!

Excuse us if we’ve a hard time keeping a straight face on this one.
It seems that Deutsche Telekom, T-Mobile's parent company, has lost its lawsuit against wireless carrier Telia over the use of the color Magenta in their logo. The Danish Eastern Regional High Court today shot down Deutsche Telekom's push to keep Telia from using the T-Mobile's trademarked Magenta color in its logo.
Apparently, Telia and T-Mobile don't directly compete in the same market. And, the shade of Magenta that Telia is using is ever so slightly different - just different enough to keep Telia out of hot water.
Here's the kicker. In a seeming karmic-backfire to Deutsche Telekom, the High Court ruled that they'll have to pay Telia's legal fees - to the tune of 1.5 million kroner ($316,188).
So, how's that color-trademark treating you, T-Mobile? We thought so.

Just as we're getting used to the fact that the HTC Dream, is, well, a smartphone-dream come true, we're getting more details on the upcoming Android-powered handset's spec-sheet.
As if that glorious Google Maps demonstration and big touchscreen functionality weren't enough, the HTC Dream will apparently be rocking 3.6Mbps HSDPA, 128MB RAM / 256MB ROM, and a capacitive touchscreen (!) - all powered by a Qualcomm MSM7201A processor clocking in at a speedy 528MHz.
It's good to finally see the long-coming HTC Dream starting to get more real. Especially seeing as how HTC is finally going with capacitance touchscreen technology. Squishy screens be gone!
So, the wait continues…
