Will Point and Shoot Cameras Become Extinct

It’s going around the rumor mill. Nokia is set to release a 12MP camera phone next year, by 2010.
With that in mind, do you think point and shoot cameras will eventually become extinct? Or if not extinct, the sales will probably plummet, don’t you think?
Most phones nowadays have atleast 3MP cameras already. I’m sure in a year or two, it won’t be surprising if phones carry atleast 5MP (or 8MP, even!) cameras. If that’s the case, why would you want to own a point-and-shoot camera? The prices are practically the same and if you really think about it, you’re getting …read more

According to Cnet, the Nokia Research Center in Cambridge, England is working on a prototype of a self-charging cellphone.
Oooh. Sounds really awesome, don’t you think?
For one thing, you’ll never worry about your phone dying on your while on an important phone call. So how does it work?
The system collects energy from ambient radio waves emitted by antennas, TV masts, Wi-Fi transmitters, and the like. Like RFID tags, the Nokia phones would catch radio waves across a range of frequencies, harnessing them for power.
Nokia’s goal is to get cell phones to harvest about 50 milliwatts of power. Currently the prototypes are …read more

I’m Flying Headset is Cool!

Nokia recently held a design contest, encouraging people to design headphones based on their favorite songs!
The headphone above is called the “I’m Flying” headset, designed by Rodshakur and inspired by R Kelly’s “I believe I Can Fly” (I could have guessed that…)
I must say, that’s a pretty cute headphone. It’s not something I would wear on an everyday basis, but it’s a nice headphone to own when you’re feeling a little costume-y!
