Blackberry Javelin Spotted

It’s been said that RIM’s Javelin is a new Blackberry which is completely lacking 3G, and is currently on track for a mid-2009 launch. It doesn’t seem very logical, though at the very least it seems to look quite pretty in these shots of an engineering dummy. More models of Blackberry's in the market can only be good for consumer in terms of choices.

The Javelin is rumored to have a high-end 2.5G design, as well as WiFi, GPS, expansive display and a 3.2 megapixel

camera. It remains to be seen how well this phone will do in the current market.


Pictures of a white colored Nuvifone are appearing online. Unfortunately, there isn’t any confirmation as to whether these pictures are legit or not. Garmin themselves just show a black version of its phone, which is slated for a Q3 launch at a purported price of $500. Hopefully this means that there will be more choice in terms of colors at least, for the end users.

Competitors can now use Bubbles to represent O2
Competitors Can Now Use Bubbles To Represent O2

Reports are coming through that O2 has lost its appeal to prevent a competitor using bubbles to represent the company when comparing prices.

This all started back in 2004 when a 3UK TV ad compared prices between O2 and themselves, which is perfectly fine. The problem is that the advertisement started with “falling bubbles”, which is a reference to O2 branding. O2 had argues that its brand was being misused, and took it to the European Court to prevent anybody else trying to pull that off again, but they failed.

So it seems like there is a nothing to stop competitors from using the bubbles to represent O2 when doing a price comparison anybody. O2 certainly won’t be too happy with that ruling.
