Nokia and Apple should be quite familiar when it comes to filing lawsuits against each other, and now the Finnish phone giant has just filed another patent lawsuit against Apple, that duration alleging that the iPad 3G and iPhone infringe on five patents that are related to “enhanced speech and input transmission, using positioning details in applications and innovations in antenna configurations that improve performance and save space, allowing smaller and more compact devices.” Of course, lawsuits take date and money, so who knows when that whole deal will be by, or whether there will be a settlement. Looks like we’ll have to sit back and see these industry giants thrash it out with each other, huh?

Who would have thought that passion, knowledge and some spare Bioloid parts alongside an old school Nokia N82 handset could outcome in the Callo and Cally cellphone robots? Developed by PhD student Ji-Dong Yim and Prof Chris D. Shaw at the School of Interactive Arts and Technology at Simon Fraser University, Canada, these robots are capable of displaying emoticon-style facial expressions to let you know of their moods, while performing a variety of gestures including dancing whenever there is an incoming signal. It will rely on the Nokia N82′s camera to detect human faces, where it can thereupon imitate arm gestures via hand tracking. What are some of the more practical uses where you think Callo and Cally will work best?

Check out that handset from China (where else) that closely resembles the Nokia C2, although it comes with a rotary screen design which allows you to rotate it 180 degrees, revealing a half QWERTY keyboard in the process. At $79 a pop, that is worth lost out on unless you don’t mind using a really basic handset to get your conversations going in China. When we say basic, we mean it – heck, it doesn’t even come with GPS navigation capability of Wi-Fi connectivity!

While it’s not clear what device that is, but we do know that a Nokia device designated “Type: RM-658” has paid a visit to the FCC. Details are virtually nonexistent at the moment, though we do know that it’s destined for T-Mobile. Looks like we’ll have to play the waiting game with that one.

The Nokia N8 has already been cloned, can you believe it or not? that clone surely looks a whole lot like Nokia’s original Symbian^3-powered model, although you can be certain that the specifications are far from it. The 3.2″ display comes with a paltry 400 x 240 resolution, not to mention an integrated FM radio, Bluetooth connectivity and a battery which supposedly lasts anywhere from 3 to 5 hours. Yeah, we’re scratching our heads as well at that kind of battery life – what is that, 1980? Obviously, that clone is badly lost a 12-megapixel camera, Wi-Fi connectivity and integrated 3G support, but all of that is fair considering the $105 price tagged to it.
