MyWeb Sony Ericsson C702 Cybershot Camera Phone – Never miss a shotMay 29, 2008 at 10:54 am by Jay | In Mobile News, Coming Soon HandsetsThe Sony Ericsson C702 is a Cybershot phone and the features are heavily weighted in the camera department, making this camera phone more than worthy of carrying the Cybershot name.
Alongside this, the Sony Ericsson C702 has integrated GPS support, meaning you can use the C702 as the perfect Geotagging device. Rough and ready to use in all conditions outdoors this Sony phone can record your location details via GPS when you take a picture. Many of the online sharing sites such as Flickr and Picasa will display the information alongside the picture, so you can show friends and families where you are when a picture is taken. Should they wish, and if they have a compatible handset, they can store the location in their phone and navigate their way to that location at their leisure. The Sony C702 has support for mobile blogging and vlogging, so you don’t even need to be near a PC to upload your images. With built in HSDPA Mobile Broadband support you can upload photos and videos quickly and simply to your own online blog. With HSDPA support you can also utilise the Sony Ericsson C702 for accessing the internet and your email on the move. The c702 has a built in Netfront web browser, or if you prefer you can download and install the excellent Opera Mini. Another way of using the handset away from imaging is as a mobile satellite navigation device. Thanks to the GPS support, by using Google maps you can navigate your way to anywhere you wish to go. Google Maps has over 20 million points of interest detailed world wide, so wherever you are you will always find what you need and how to get there. Memory storage is more than adequate on the phone, with 160MB of internal memory and support for Sony M2 memory cards. Lastly, one of the best applications to ever appear on a mobile phone is also included on the C702 and deserves a mention. I am of course talking about the excellent TrackID. With TrackID you can record snippets of songs heard from the radio, stereo, on the internet, and upload that to the web. Within seconds details of that song are delivered in return to your phone. The information will generally include song name, artist and album details, plus an option to buy the song or download as a ringtone. The Sony Ericsson C702 is due soon. If you wish to register your interest in the handset, then click here and enter your details as required. We will email you when we have confirmed details on a release date.

MyWeb 17% of Brits Would Shop From Their Mobile PhonesMay 28, 2008 at 10:38 am by Jay | In Mobile News
The survey was carried out by Lightspeed Research, and they found that the most popular items people would consider buying were DVD’s and CD’s, with 73%, followed by Books and Travel, which both came in at 55%. Men were the most likely to use their phones for buying online, with 22%, whilst only 12% of women would consider shopping from their phone. I guess popping from website to website on the mobile to buy the first item they saw is not as appealing as popping from shop to shop, just to buy from the first shop they visited! The figures were higher than those from the same survey conducted in France, where only 9% said they would shop from their phone, but Germany fared much better, with 25%. Other items people would buy from their phone were flowers, at 48%, but clothes, food and toiletries were the least popular options. Lightspeed Research CEO for Europe, David Day, said:
In many ways, this change in shopping habit is influenced by the same technological advances that boosted internet shopping generally. It was the introduction of home broadband that made online shopping the success it is today. Similar speed improvements with mobile broadband in phones such as the Samsung U900 Soul, Nokia N95 and LG Secret is certainly playing its part in making mobile shopping quicker and more convenient.

MyWeb Nokia 6600 Fold smooth compact clamshell phoneMay 27, 2008 at 10:47 am by Jay | In Mobile News, Coming Soon Handsets
The high gloss surface of the handset springs to life when tapped twice to wake up the outer display, revealing the time, incoming messages and missed calls. A double tap on the phone also snoozes the alarm, silences alerts and rejects calls. The Nokia 6600 is a 3G mobile and includes a 2.0 megapixel camera with double LED flash. This feature allows the LED light to be used when video recording in low light. Another feature of the 6600 is the built in music player. The player supports multiple audio formats, including MP3, AAC, AAC+, eAAC+ and WMA. With support for Bluetooth 2.0 you will be able to listen to your music on the move, without wires, using a stereo Bluetooth headset. There is also an FM stereo radio for those times when your music collection is just not enough. The 6600 Fold supports Nokia Maps, which if used in conjunction with a GPS Bluetooth dongle turns your handset into a mobile Sat Nav device. This feature packed phone from Nokia covers all the main areas you want in a mobile phone; mobile navigation, mobile photography and mobile music.

MyWeb UK Leads the Way in Mobile EmailMay 23, 2008 at 1:45 pm by Jay | In Mobile NewsOpera have released a report, titled ‘State of the Mobile Web‘ for the first quarter of 2008. The report has highlighted some very interesting data. Since 1998 Opera have been working to offer a decent web browsing experience on the mobile phone. Over that time they have developed what has become the most popular web browser for mobile handsets, Opera Mini. With the increase in usage of QVGA screens on mobile phones, combined with the excellent Opera Mini web browser, surfing the internet on a mobile phone is no longer hard work. Many handsets now work on 3G data speeds with HSDPA Mobile Broadband becoming more increasingly available. This, combined with how Opera Mini, transcodes web pages to increase data transfer speeds, offers mobile users access to full websites with enhanced browsing experience as opposed to having to rely on cut down WAP or .mobi sites.
As users become more comfortable browsing the net from their phone, they are looking more and more for full internet sites, as opposed to ‘made for mobile’ sites. 77% of all traffic goes to full websites, with just 23% going to mobile specific sites. This matches Opera’s OneWeb idea, where a user will access the same sites on a PC or on a mobile phone. The most popular sites accessed on a mobile phone continue to be Social Networking sites, which accounts for almost 40% of worldwide traffic, with some countries having almost 60% of their web traffic going to sites like Facebook and Myspace. In the UK, the most popular sites are mobile email access sites, with 11% of the total web traffic going to sites such as Yahoo Mail and Google’s Gmail. In the top ten sites accessed, the large majority were social networking sites, with Facebook leading the way. Here is the top ten in full: 1. www.Facebook.com You can download the Opera Mini web browser from here.

MyWeb The Sony Ericsson C902 - A Phone Good Enough for James BondMay 22, 2008 at 1:22 pm by Jay | In Mobile News
The C902 sports a cracking 5.0 megapixel camera, with autofocus, face detection and an image stabliser as standard. To access the camera you give the end a tug and the covered lens is exposed. You can see this in the video clip below. The opening mechanism reminds me of the 1970’s spy TV programs, the camera is opened in a similar way to the small spy cameras they used to use. The handset has a flash, which Sony Ericsson are calling simply Photo Flash. It doesn’t carry the Xenon name but SE claim it is as good as a Xenon flash. The light can also be used when recording video clips in low light, which is a nice touch. The Best Pic option is available on the handset, which when activated takes 9 pictures in very quick succession on the phone, with one press of the camera key. From the 9, you can view and select your favourite pic and delete the rest. Best Pic is ideal if you find that subjects in your photos tend to close their eyes or open their mouths just as you are about to take their picture! Viewing the pictures on the phone is simply and easily done, thanks to the built in accelerometer. When viewing your pictures in portrait mode simply rotate the handset by 90 degrees to view automatically in landscape mode. Or you can simply upload them to your own online blog, thanks to the mobile’s built in support for blogging and video blogging, or vlogging if you prefer. There is even software built in to the phone that allows you to create a slide show, on the handset, complete with transitions and a backing soundtrack. Away from the top range imaging capabilities the Sony Ericsson C902 is a serious handset for communication and web access on the move. Supporting HSDPA mobile broadband for super fast download speeds, the Sony C902 also has a bright, clear TFT QVGA screen, which presents websites in the sharpest clarity. The handset has a built in Netfront web browser, but you can also download and install the excellent Opera Mini web browser. Memory capacity is abundant, with a solid 160MB of internal memory, plus the option to expand with the addition of Sony M2 memory cards. If you want to register your interest in the C902, please click here and enter your details as required. Once we have information on a release date we will email you and let you know.

MyWeb Who Calls Me - how to avoid cold calls on your mobile phoneMay 20, 2008 at 5:38 pm by Jay | In Mobile News
This information is logged and passed on to companies who will try and sell you something over the phone. The machine will check if the number is active, and register whether the call is answered or if it rings out to answer phone. All this is to remove ‘dead numbers’ from the cold calling company’s call list. Whocallsme.com is a user supplied database of phone numbers. By going to the website and searching for the number you have in your call log, you can find out if it is a scam or a call from a genuine company. If the number you are checking isn’t registered then you can start your own thread and very soon a database is created for that number, as others who have also been called add their information to the thread. A simple idea, that works very well. As for dealing with cold calls on your mobile phone, the following tips may be of use: 1. If you get a call from a withheld or private number, let the call ring out to answerphone. If the call is important, they will leave a message.
