Sharp Intros the World's Smallest 5-Megapixel Camera

A better spy camera in public place from Sharp is ranking the world's smallest and high quality image. It sounds great for the 5 megapixcel camera, RJ63SC100. It sizes at only 9.5 x 9.5 x 6.6mm with auto focus for a better image. This small high quality camera will be very practical any where possible, especially for the future phone. Every company is racing to get to the top product with highest technology. Sharp is doing well. Available in July.

SingTel ropes iPhone distro in Singapore, India, Australia, and Philippines

by engadget

Singapore Telecommunications (aka SingTel) announced that it's secured agreements to distribute the iPhone in Singapore (on SingTel Mobile) and its partly-owned subsidiaries in Australia (on Optus), India (on Bharti Group), and the Philippines (on Globe Telecom). Vodafone's also distributing the iPhone in India and Australia though, so we'll have to wait until later this year to find out who gets to shoot first.

New LG slider in Verizon ad? Probably not.

by engadget

The darndest things can happen when you don't have your marketing and product development groups on exactly the same page. Case in point: this ad, astutely observed by a reader and sent in. It clearly depicts a phone that doesn't exist -- at least not officially. The closest analog we can draw to it would be Alltel's LG Glimmer, though it doesn't share the Glimmer's chin below the keypad. Our guess, honestly, is that some Photoshop wiz slapped an oversized VZ Navigator screen shot on a Venus, added a stupendously huge Verizon logo below it just for effect, and called it a day. Anyone else want to chime in on this?

BlackBerry Curve now available through Sprint

by engadget

Late's better than never -- usually, anyway -- and a rumored release date finally stuck long enough for the BlackBerry Curve 8330 to make an appearance on Sprint's online store. In fact, as "mid-May" goes, May 9 is actually on the early side of things if you want to get technical about it, so we guess some kudos are actually due here. Sprint's asking $179.99 on contract with rebates for the pleasure of indulging in its latest mobile productivity tool, which you'll ironically be using to respond to emails during meetings that you're supposed to be listening in on. Funny how the world works, isn't it?
