No doubt about it, Neven Vision is on a media roll lately. Wired featured their facial recognition software for cellcams in its December 2004 issue, and now TheFeature interviews namesake Dr. Harmut Neven about his plans for “Hyperlinking the World”, visual Google style. If Dr. Neven and his company have their way, we’ll all soon [...]

Mobile phone meets media center
Monday, January 24, 2005
Biz Week’s Olag Kharif has definitely drunk the mobile Kool-Aid. Power to him and of course I agree with a lot of the things he mentions, including the importance of the ever quickening rise of the cellcam and cellpod. I think he’s a bit overly optimistic in his implied timelines for some of the higher [...]
National cellcam survey results
Monday, January 24, 2005
Snapfish recently reported on the results from a cellcam user survey they conducted with individuals from across the US. Click here to read their press release including the results. I wasn’t surprised that most people find camera phones easy to use, use them around the home, and take more pictures of their kids than anyone [...]
Sharpening the (somewhat dull) Razr edge
Thursday, January 20, 2005
BusinessWeek reports on Motorola’s plans to produce a line of handsets based upon the Razr V3. In case you somehow missed it (I’m not sure how you could have if you’re in the US and watch television, because Cingular carpet bombed the airwaves with Razr ads over the holidays), the V3 is a new top [...]
My favorite gift gizmo
Saturday, December 25, 2004
The holiday season is always a great time for gadget freaks like me. Last year I posted a wishlist for phone features, so this year I thought I’d mix things up and publish a “what’s cool” post instead. Rather than bore everybody with a “top ten” or something like that, I’ll cut to the chase [...]
My new LG L1400
Friday, November 26, 2004
In leaving Nokia, I had to give up my company owned 7610. This was a sad day indeed because it is a truly fantastic device IMO, but on the other hand losing the 7610 also presented me with an opportunity to revisit which features are most important to me and which handsets on the US [...]
Profits fading in digicam industry
Sunday, November 21, 2004
The competition was already fierce among digicam vendors anyway, and then along came the cellcams. Reuters reports on the effects on dedicated digital camera profits. There will certainly always be room at the top for SLRs such as the Canon EOS 20D and higher res compact digicams like the PowerShot S500. Nonetheless the pressure from [...]
Nokia unveils new cellcams including 3230
Saturday, November 13, 2004
Yahoo/Reuters reports on Nokia’s recent announcement of the Series 60 based Nokia 3230 along with the Series 40 based Nokia 6020 and the Nokia 7710 media device. The 6020 is a nice looking and highly capable handset and the 7710 breaks some new ground in high end display and video capture for mobile devices, but [...]
Nokia 9300
Wednesday, September 8, 2004
Nokia introduced the Series 80 based Nokia 9300 today. Read MobileBurn’s review and check out more photos from the Nokia press site. The 9300 will support Blackberry email access along with other Series 80 based devices such as the 9500. In fact, one way to look at the 9300 is as a slimmed down 9500 [...]

Wednesday, September 1, 2004
Now that I’m settled in my new position at Nokia, I’ve got some catching up to do on my monthly wireless recap posts. My last installment was in my java.net blog way back in March. What I’ve decided to do to catch up is post this April, May, and June conglomeration, then resume monthly posts [...]
