Today everywhere, anywhere, in the hands, in the pocket of every person there is a mobile phone. Mobile phones or popularly known as just mobiles have become not just a means of communication but also emerged as a fashion component nowadays. People from all age group, sex, economy carry a mobile with them for many different purposes rather than just for talking on the phones.

People have started to make a lot of expectations with mobiles, and mobile technology has also proven itself to the expectations of the people. Mobile technology has come a long way since its inception. Today, there are very less things now that you can’t do with a mobile but do with your computer. Playing games, listening to music, taking photos/videos, recording, surfing in the internet, organizing your schedule any many more features are packed in your small cell phone and these are the things that you need to consider while buying a mobile phone which can be a very annoying task as the options are unlimited in front of you. Also due to the price variation of different models in different shops and emergence of cheap quality mobiles in the market, shopping for mobile for some is just too irritating.

For those, I want them to check out iMobilePlaza.com which is an online cell phone wholesaler/retailer from Indonesia with a huge collection of the most popular and the best mobile phones around. Here, you can find phones manufactured by Apple, HP, HTC, Blackberry, Dopod, Eten, Nokia, Sony Ericsson, Samsung, Motorola, Siemens, LG, PalmOne, O2, Benq-Siemens and Vertu. Price is very competitive with other online shops that I’ve checked out. My personal favorite is Vertu Ascent about which many may not know but is one of the most expensive mobiles around.

Ascent is made of ceramic, stainless steel and a durable alloy called Liquidmetal, finished with hand-sewn leather and a screen of sapphire crystal, a material second only to diamond in hardness.

Its price is whooping $4,236.00 at iMobilePlaza. I hop to buy it some day. Till then I’ll just do window shopping.

Sony Ericsson has launched the 8 GB touch screen W960i Walkman phone. With room for up to 8,000 songs and finger-touch navigation around playlists, the phone also has a 2.6″ display and a 3.2 megapixel camera. It can be hooked up to the Web using the 3G network or via a Wi-Fi access point. The W960i Walkman phone features a 3.2 megapixel camera with autofocus within its 16mm frame, and allows picture messaging, email or picture blogging. It incorporates Sony Ericsson’s TrackID music recognition software, that lets users record a clip of a song on their phone and find out instantly the name of the artist, track and album. The W960i Walkman phone comes bundled with a stereo portable handsfree, is UMTS 2100-GSM/GPRS 900/1800/1900 and available in Vinyl Black.

Whereas Nokia N95 has Up to 5 megapixel (2592 x 1944 pixels) camera Carl Zeiss optics Tessar lens, MPEG-4 VGA video capture of up to 30 fps, Video and still image editors, Front camera CIF (352 x 288) sensor, Integrated flash Flash modes: on, off, automatic, redeye reduction, Direct connection to compatible TV via Nokia Video Connectivity Cable (CA-75U, included in box) or wireless LAN/UpnP, etc. Its operating frequency is WCDMA2100 (HSDPA), EGSM900, GSM850/1800/1900 MHz (EGPRS). It digital music player - supports MP3/AAC/AAC+/eAAC+/WMA/M4A with playlists and equalizer along with integrated handsfree speaker. I can’t just keep counting its features, because the list goes on increasing.

Nokia N95 8GB cell phone is the first in the world to receive Digital Living Network Alliance (DLNA) certification. DLNA is a body advocating the interoperability of wired and wireless consumer devices. DLNA certification would mean “convenient and intuitive connectivity” between your future DLNA Certified home electronics devices, including personal computers, and your Nokia N95 8GB.

As far as looks are concerned, you cannot really win over Sony Ericsson (SE). The W960i feels great in hand as compared to the Nokia (N95), which comes out to be a bit thick sliding. The glossy front and the velvet back add to the appeal and also the feel. Buttons are better than the N95 and you’ll surely love those hidden music touch buttons. Coming to the OS, both devices run on Symbian OS 9.1, but the N95 has S60 which scores more than the W960 in the ease of use. Surely, for people who are addicted to S60 phones, it’ll take them a day or two to get used to the W960, but once you do that, the W960 turns into a wonderful piece of equipment. It is easy to navigate through the N95, but you must note that the W960 is a touch screen with UIQ 3.0.

I don’t doubt the greatness of the N95, but if you want a phone which gives you immense satisfaction in all departments, go with the Sony Ericsson W960i. It’s a wonderful phone capable of stealing many eyes once you take it out in the open. There’s everything, a 3.2M camera, 8 GB, Walkman, Touch screen, 3G, Wi-Fi and the great looks. The touchscreen is really great. Customization in the W960 is far more advanced than Nokia as it gives three options - a standard view, a walkman view and a business view of the home screen, all 3 of which are unique. Coming to the camera front, the N95 bags the awards with its 5MP Carl Zeiss Optics which delivers marvelous pictures and videos. But the W960 also gives decent picture quality with its 3.2 MP camera with 2 photo lights. There’s no argument about the memory as both devices boast 8 GB of inbuilt memory plus 100+ phone memory for contacts, messages, etc. Now over to the music department, the W960 offers excellent sound with its headset provided. Visualizations are something you’ll surely love.

Whenever you think mobile phones are getting a bit boring, or you want to see the new possibilities, or what’s going to happen in the next few years, there’s only one place to look: Japan. All are familiar with the Japanese technology. Let me introduce you all to its new innovative product. But I am not sure whether this product has been launched or not. Japan has developed of special cell phones that are useful for hearing impaired people. It’s the Sanyo FS41!

This Japanese technological mobile phone transmits sound waves by causing the cochlea of your ear to vibrate allowing you to hear the call in your head instead of your outer ear drum. In the simple words, it transmits sounds from the caller to the receiver in the form of vibrations which the H.I. person can understand. The phone which sends vibrations to simulate sounds in your ear drums is made by Sanyo. They termed the technology “Sonic Speaker”.
