By admin on August 6, 2008

by Lucia Novara
With the opening ceremonies mere days away and VISA commercials reminding us that credit limits and Morgan Freeman are somehow related to international glory, it’s safe to say the entire country has Olympics Fever.

3G Watch Phone, Still Not Ready for Prime Time thumbnail

TECHSPOTTER. While we readily conclude that the new LG 3G watch phone isn’t quite ready for prime time, it is perhaps the most promising version to date.  The LG-GD910 “wrist-phone” supports both 3G and HSDPA which means its capable of fast downloads (up to 7.2 Mbps claimed via HSDPA).  The 1.43-inch color LCD is a [...]
