Marc Newson Mobile by Josh Rubin

A Marc Newson designed mobile phone, the Talby, made its debut recently at a Japanese trade show. The design is aesthetically forward and fun, but I question how usable the product will be.
A recent ZD Net Japan article gives the review (if you don't speak Japanese there are still some good pictures).

Vodafone V501T Cover
This little fella is just one of twelve of the cover costumes for the Vodafone V501T.

Hands on with the T-Mobile G1
When it goes on sale tomorrow, the T-Mobile G1 will be the very first mobile device to utilize Google's open source operating system, Android. I've been using a G1 for the last couple of weeks and am really impressed—a relief because since the iPhone there really hasn't been a mobile that I've been excited about. While the G1 comes in a nice form-factor with...
