Yuruppy, Low Maintenance Rub Only “Tamagotchi “
February 27, 2009
You do not need to feed or take Yuruppys virtual pets for a virtual walk, they only require to be "digitally" fondled. Sounds strange? Users have to complete 14 mini games with their puppy, kitten, or chicken by controlling them with their fingers using the touch screen. Yuruppy is manufactured by Tomy Takara and retails for $21, or $38 for the deluxe edition equipped with a larger screen.

I do not like Bluetooth headsets but that one is beautiful. Ilshat Garipov took his inspiration from the formation of a water droplet and the device comprises a individual button for receiving and ending calls. I want one!

Motorola i465 Press Pictures Leaked
February 27, 2009
Motorola has certainly been floundering due to the global financial crises of late. That being said, it has still managed to come up with its iDEN phone that has a full QWERTY keyboard. Press release pictures of that phone have conveniently arisen online, so you’ll probably want to take a good look at the device. Specifications are nothing to shout about with a VGA camera, Bluetooth 2.0 and of course, iDEN PTT (Push-to-Talk) which is certainly quite fun. Will carriers want to pick up that phone?

BlackBerry 9630 Niagara World Edition at Verizon
February 27, 2009
It looks like the Blackberry Niagara's model number will be 9630 and it will be a "world edition" considering it will support CDMA and GSM with variants of 3G for both standards. The big issue, however, is that it won't have WiFi. Yes it sucks, and we still wonder why Verizon keeps castrating cool phones, but hey, we're on T-Mobile anyway. Takeway:
- GSM/CDMA 3G phone (EVDO RevA, UMTS) "world edition"
- 3.2 Megapixel camera (in the consumer version)
