Forget satellite -- Google's mobile phone mapping application can give a user's location without being GPS-enabled, but just a little less accurately.
Research In Motion introduced on Monday its BlackBerry 8800, designed to offer up multimedia consumer features to the corporate user.
Canadian phone company Research in Motion (RIM) launched its first HSDPA BlackBerry in Sydney today, the BlackBerry Bold, with Vodafone, Optus and Telstra confirming they will carry the handset.
Research in Motion has officially introduced the first touchscreen BlackBerry to the world: the RIM BlackBerry Storm.
Google has launched a new feature in its Google Maps for Mobile program that automatically sets your location, even in phones that lack a global positioning system (GPS) device.
Most mobile services which are peddled as the "next big thing" have been around for donkey's years, while operators and handset manufacturers try to find a reason to convince consumers to actually pay for them. GPS looks to be going down the same road.
Have a sneak peak at the insides of an e-mail, text messaging and all round media workhorse: the BlackBerry 8310 Curve.
In 2005, Canadian wireless company Research in Motion (RIM) came from relative obscurity to steal a global lead in e-mail equipped mobile devices with its BlackBerry. Could 2008 be the year that BlackBerry falls off its perch?

Have you ever thought that some tech companies occasionally invest more brainpower in naming their products than in making them successful? You're not the only one who thinks so.
The 8110 isn't so much an updated model as its virtually identical to the previously released Pearl 8120, excluding the fact that the 8110 includes a GPS chipset, but is without Wi-Fi.
RIM has incrementally upgraded the BlackBerry Curve with the addition of a GPS receiver, although we're still waiting for 3G connectivity.
The Bold is what BlackBerry fans have been waiting for. It's feature-rich and sharply designed, let down in small measure by some cumbersome software.
The BlackBerry 8707g is reasonably zippy and easy-to-use, but lacks many common smartphone features like Wi-Fi and microSD memory expansion.
Even with GPS and its expected lower price-tag the P3470 will struggle without Wi-Fi or 3G data speeds.
