Philips is to be rolling out their Xenium X800 all-touch-screen equipped mobile phone in the near future, it has already received FCC approval, so could be due quite soon. So what can we expect from the Philips Xenium X800?
Well the X800 offers up a 29.inch 240 x 400 QVGA TFT touch-screen, 2 megapixel camera with auto-focus, tri-band GSM 900/1800/1900, WAP 2.0 x HTML, MP3/MPEG4/WAV/AAC music player, Java MIDP 2.0, SMS, EMS, MMS, Bluetooth, the much admired microSD transflash memory card slot, 1250 mAh battery which brings the user up to 8 hours of talk time and 850 hours of standby time.
Unfortunately there is again a lack of 3G and Wifi and even EDGE connectivity with the Philips Xenium X800 mobile phone which will possible kill the deal with a lot of people, and it also probably indicates the Philips Xenium X800 is destined only for the Asian market.
Personally it looks an attractive mobile phone, but with lacking all that high juice connectivity it certainly won’t stand up against the abundance of mobile phone soon to hit the market such as the Apple iPhone 3G, the Samsung Instinct, and Samsung Omnia. One can only hope that Philips set a price tag accordingly and make it immensely affordable, and then probably people may consider it as a secondary mobile phone.

Word is out that Samsung is to launch a new rugged style candy-bar design mobile phone, the GT-B2700, which has been certified to be resistant to dust and water. Samsung’s idea is to take on this relatively underserved and often neglected mobile market and bring to the mobile user a stylishly designed, rugged mobile phone.
Apparently, if you noticed the number now starts with GT rather than the usual Samsung SGH, this shows that the mobile phone is GSM and is first in a new line for Sansung.
Spec wise potential buyers shouldn’t be expecting the high end features of a modern smartphone but the Samsung GT-B2700 offers, quad-band GSM/GPRS+EDGE radio, 1.9 inch 176 x 220 pixel screen, Bluetooth 2.0, FM radio and RDS, music player, in-built altimeter and compass, 30MB of internal memory, the good old microSD slot, and a 1300 mAh battery.
The Samsung GT-B2700 measures 115 x 52 x 18mm, and unfortunately doesn’t support video calling or second camera, however the rugged appearance should attract customers. The GT-B2700 has been tested for durability to the IP54 level which means dust particles larger than 1mm cannot enter the phone, and that it is resistant to water splash.
The Samsung GT-B2700 rugged mobile phone should be available in Czechoslovakia sometime during the summer at a price of roughly $330 USD, about 210 EUR.

The computer users of the world have been getting more interested in open source and free software for some time now and Microsoft’s new Equipt subscription service is aimed at defending the Office franchise.
As we reported the other day, the pricing model for Equipt will be $69.99 per year and you get a lot of software for the money that can be accessed by up to three computers.
Circuit City have got the exclusive rights to Equipt beginning mid-July and it’s hoped by Microsoft that the convenience of Equipt will stop some Office users moving towards the open source or free software route.
There is a lot of competition for Microsoft and that’s why this new service was needed to keep them in the game, as IBM is offering Lotus Symphony free and also other brands have similar free Office software packages.
The sales results for Office products have shown a downward pattern and the last quarter saw Office products among consumers drop 39%.
Will you use the new Equipt subscription service or do you have another favorite?
