American Idol is Back

American Idol is back on our screens. Put downs from Simon Cowell so far include "You should get a job at the port, on a foggy day", and his advice includes "If someone is down in show business, make sure you kick them when they're down". It's a good job that super-nice Randy is also on the judging panel.

If you want to watch the repeats, make sure you have a Freeview box.

The LG KG320

The small, sleek LG KG320 is a candy-bar form factor phone from LG that competes in the slimline market with the likes of the Motorola SLVR and Samsung t509. Measuring just 9.9mm thin, LG have even managed to squeeze a 1.3 Megapixel camera into the KG320 and 128MB of on-board memory!

Connectivity is provided via USB or Bluetooth, for sharing data to your computer and other phones or Bluetooth devices. Messaging and internet support is available through SMS, MMS, E-mail and a WAP 2.0/xHTML browser.

The lasting impression from this phone is its style and excellent layout. LG have managed to fit a decent camera along with a good sized screen and set of buttons into a tiny and thin bar, avoiding moving parts through sliding or clam-shell designs. All of this in a phone that will turn heads even on the classiest of nights out.

Apple iPhone Launched

Apple has lauched its long expected mobile phone, the Apple iPhone. Features include a touch sensitive colour display, 2 megapixel digital camera and 4Gb of memory. EDGE and WiFi support gives internet browsing via the Safari browser. Needless to say the iPhone also has music and video players. The phone has great looks, and good usability is to be expected from Apple. It will be interesting to see if Apple can break into the mobile phone market with as much success as it had with the iPod in the mp3 player market, but it faces stiff competition from other mobile phones which can match the iPhone for features.
