Wi-Fi on your Smartphone?!

IT WORKS!

I'll tell you a quick story. It's a bit boring, but it's worth telling you lot. Firstly, I had a bit of a problem with the server that runs www.coolsmartphone.com. We'll say "a bit of a problem" and try and cover up the fact that coolsmartphone.com ha...

Motorola MPx200 – Come get some!

See?! You lot thought I was over-cooking it when I stated how good the MPx200 was in this review. Well, now it's backed up once again - this time by David Ludlow from vnunet.co.uk who states.. "Motorola has managed to up the ante on smartphone batter...

BlueJacking

The E200 – My opinion?

The E200, billed to be THE MS Smartphone to have, is getting knocked left, right and centre at the moment. Already there's bugs and terrible, terrible battery life (3-4 hours with Bluetooth "Discoverable" turned on - this compared to about a week with...

MPx200.org – APPLICATION UNLOCK IT!!!!!!

As you know we at coolsmartphone.com LOVE the Motorola MPx200. It is, in my mind, probably the best MS Smartphone ever. If you get it on Orange then it'll be locked so you can't run all the juicy free applications and games.. Until now! Check out THIS...

E200 Woes…

I've been following the E200 news for the last week. Today Paul @ MoDaCo.com reports on the fact that the E200 has only a 4-way joystick, making several games unplayable and therefore effectively incompatible with the E200.

First time E200 user?

There's an excellent review by ex-Nokia user Ian Moore right here. A few quotes... "I’ve only had this piece of kit a few days, and I haven’t (yet) had a grudge against it." "Being a SPV-first timer, if the E200’s are like this, what are the f...
