4x5 menu on your 5800 XM

Probably most of you guys know about this, well I post to who that don't know..:))..

Just found out how to display 5800 menu 4x5. Meaning that you have 20 item on your menu at one time instead of 3x4 (12 item on your menu)..The downside about this is it doesn't shows you any label on each icon. You need to really know your icon..

Just go to Menu>Settings>Phone>Display>Font Size>Small



So EnJOY!!..Do Comment..:D

Apple iPhone 2009 comes on 17 July, OLED display on board

We’ve heard lots of stuff about the next-gen Apple iPhone, but here's a rundown of all the latest rumors. The 17 July announcement of the iPhone 2009 is pretty much clear by now but there are some new juicy bits and pieces.

One of the new rumors states that the iPhone 2009 will use an OLED display instead of the current industry leading unit. As of yet, we haven't seen an AMOLED display to match the iPhone display, but who knows we might be surprised. One thing's for sure, AMOLED displays are more energy efficient than standard LCD units, so that seems like a nice move to bump up the appalling battery life of the iPhone 3G.

As rumors have it the Apple logo on the back of the iPhone 2009 will glow much like the ones on Apple laptops. Well if not for anything else, at least it sounds extra cool.

The new iPhone will also probably get rid of the metallic frame around the display and will feature a 3.2 MP AF camera with video recording, will be able to send image/video MMS, and will have double the RAM and increased processing power.

Previous rumors also state that there will be rubber back surface, generally smoother design and nice features as built-in compass.

Finally, the new iPhone will come in at least two versions - 16GB and 32GB ones. All this stuff sounds quite promising, so we are eager to hear more about it from the Cupertino team.

A leaked screenshot shows attractive specs of iPhone 2009

A leaked screenshot recently showed more info about the updated hardware of the upcoming iPhone 2009 (to be announced this June, guys). That screenie backs up all the numerous speculations and rumors.

The iPhone 2009 is expected to be announced quite soon and according to the leaked info should have a 600MHz CPU (currently 400MHz), 256MB RAM (currently 128MB), 32GB internal memory (currently a maximum of 16GB), a 3.2 megapixel autofocus snapper, digital compass and FM radio.

Those specs definitely sound good although they are far from the best-of-class smartphones and we would have liked them to be even better.

Unfortunately, the rumors don't suggest any changes regarding the screen, battery or design.

Coming soon Nokia 5900 XM continuing the success of 5800 XM??

wow...time moving so fast as news about the coming Nokia 5900 XM all over the internet...BUT, we dont know that is this the real phone or another China-clone type phone..









From the review, it offers 5 MP camera but unlikely to have 3G camera. Not sure Nokia will do that to penetrate touch screen market share..but anything can happened..looks like the size is slimmer and offers bigger screen size..








Well, we can wait and see...:))
