    Apple wowed the cell phone industry a year ago with the first version of the iPhone. And now its new software development kit and soon-to-be-launched application store featuring third-party applications could change the game yet again.

  • Photos: Star Wars iPhone running Vista, WiMax

    I can't wait for the new iPhone to come out mainly because I'm so dog-tired of listening to the never-ending screeds of rumour mongering nonsense speculating on what functionality the device will have that come out every single day. So I've decided to join in. I'm 100 per cent convinced the new iPhone will run Vista and have WiMax connectivity. In fact I'd bet my house on it.

  • Samsung Omnia Icon

    Its excellent multimedia support, storage and gorgeous display make the Omnia better for people who put pleasure before business.

  • Samsung Preston Icon

    The Preston has the look of a better handset, but poor call quality spoils an otherwise well-performing budget-priced touchscreen phone.

  • LG Xenon

    Matching a touchscreen with a full-QWERTY keyboard at this price point is fantastic. Anyone looking to make their cyber-life mobile should check out the Xenon.

  • HTC Hero

    HTC shows just how customisable Google's Android platform is, delivering a swag of home screen widgets out of the box. We can't wait to get our hands on the Hero.

  • LG Arena

    LG's touchscreen features class-leading multimedia support, but we're not convinced it makes an excellent phone. Its flashy new interface looks great but tends to make things slower and more difficult.

    It was interesting to witness Conroy's recent enthusiasm to spruik the NBN's role in supporting the Smart Grid, Smart City initiative. What a pity that Conroy hadn't yet seen the damning report from the Victorian auditor-general about that state's smart-meter roll-out.
