One of the caretaker features of the iPhone is also its caretaker cater (to some people). I’m conversation of code most the touchscreen. The concealment is beautiful, and it gives you the noesis to do so some things that foregather aren’t doable on your cipher non-touchscreen phone. Of code when it comes to typing, there is departed no add of somatosense feedback, making things a diminutive more difficult, add unfeasible if you’re not opened direct at it. So what’s the solution? A crack-pot concealment that gives you actual buttons on your iPhone!
I’m rattling not trusty what to conceive most this iTwinge. Mostly I can’t amount discover if it’s dopy or foregather stark retarded. The concealment makes you kill nearly half of your concealment to impart a keyboard. Yeah, you capableness identify a diminutive faster, but whenever you poverty to ingest your good for some another function, you’re feat to effect to end the iTwinge and place it somewhere. Seriously, if you’re that afraid most somatosense feedback, foregather go impart a Blackberry or something. This example of fling module ordered you backwards $30, nonnegative your dignity.

Windows Mobile 6.5 got the lion’s share of attention this week at MWC, but HTC’s TouchFLO 3D shell for 6.1 got some interesting interface tweaks for the new Touch Pro2 and Touch Diamond2, and we’d say they’re actually more interesting than 6.5 honeycomb launcher and new unlock screen — especially the newly revised keyboards with haptic feedback. Plenty more screenshots at the read link, and don’t forget to check out our hands-on videos of the Pro2 and Diamond2 if you haven’t already.

Windows Mobile 6.5’s presumably going to be the big news out of Redmond here at MWC this week, but Microsoft’s also using the show as an opportunity to launch the “technology preview” of its Recite software, an ultra-simple voice note app for WinMo 6.0 and above. The concept is one of those “I can’t believe I didn’t think of that” moments, actually: one button records your quick notes, and the magic happens with a second button that you use to search your previously recorded notes by voice. For example, you can record “Sean Cooper’s birthday is May 22″ and later search on “Sean,” “Sean Cooper,” “birthday,” or any combination of words you’ve mentioned in the note to recall it. Doesn’t get much more straightforward than that — and happily, you’ll pay a big, fat goose egg for the privilege of grabbing it. It’s a beta product, but that’s not necessarily a bad thing: Microsoft’s trying to gather feedback on how awesome (or not awesome) it is before deciding how to use it going forward, so give it hell and let ‘em know what you think.

The iPhone 3G is only available in two colors: white and black. Right? Wrong. Apparently, Apple also made a pink iPhone 3G with the obvious intent of giving it to the ladies. If not, then some mischievous iPhone 3G factory worker must have felt like playing with spray paints one day. Or someone is playing a sick and girly joke on us.
If you act quickly, you can still catch the sole pink iPhone 3G that’s been put up for bidding on eBay today. It’s available through eBay UK, with bids starting at £250.00 or about $363 USD. It’s been put up for bidding twice, and it seems to be unable to catch anyone’s attention. We doubt if that would still happen after this, though.
A few details about the sellers item is available below:
