The largest cellphone by Samsung

Saturday, March 21st, 2009 by Peter Zhang

As everybody else is fighting to create the thinnes, smallest and lightest cellphone, Samsung and Cricket takes an opposite approach – the largest cellphone in the world, and it is displayed at Chicago.

The cellphone is as tall as 2 adults, and 5 meters long. It is a fully functional phone, and you can indeed type a SMS on the keyboard the cellphone provides. By just looking at the cellphone, don’t you think it is a little bit too Nokia-ish?

I wanna have one of those at home :P

It’s time to be green – Samsung Blue Earth Solar Phone

Saturday, February 28th, 2009 by Peter Zhang

samsungsolarphonewow

Everyone is crazy about green. Samsung isn’t an exception. This Blue Earth phone was unveiled at the MWC this year. This phone is going to have a solar panel at the back with a huge touch screen. You won’t ever have to worry about running out of battery in the streets.

It even comes with a eco-calculator to see how many trees you have saved by using the phone. A rather sweet idea, I guess.

Samsung is intended to save as many trees as possible with its “Blue Earth Dream”. For more environmental information or more information about the cellphone, it is a good idea to visit their website: The Blue Earth Dream

They MEAN it when they say “Stand back from the doors”!

Wednesday, February 4th, 2009 by Peter Zhang

Apparently, someone was playing iBowl (is it?) on iPhone, which requires the player to actually act like they are bowling. This friend here must be too into the game, and didn’t pay attention to the warning message “Stand back from the doors”. The price is obviously very heavy… Good luck finding it =)

Print Your Files anywhere with PRINTSTIK

Thursday, January 29th, 2009 by Peter Zhang

printstik_whats_inc

PRINTSTIK is a very small printer with Bluetooth to let you print files directly from your Blackberry and PC (possibly more devices in the future). It is a tiny laser printer with fax-paper type cartridges built in. While the machine itself costs $299.99, paper costs $20 for each cartridge. Ideal for businessmen, but I think it is slightly too expensive for normal users.

See it in action here:
