As the week nears its end, we’re back at it again with your daily dose of tech news. In today’s US Update we take a look at T-mobile UK’s Smoky Violet BlackBerry Curve 3G, uncover the latest specs for the Nokia N9 MeeGo handset, track down the LG Optimus Black and more.
Who said you can’t teach an old dog new tricks? T-mobile UK has just unveiled the latest BlackBerry Curve 3G, now in “Smoky Violet”. The handset is available now in T-mobile stores, online and via telesales.
Leaked specs on an upcoming MeeGo handset, possibly the Nokia N9, have surfaced. An Intel 1.6 GHz cpu, 1GB of RAM, 200 MHz GPU with 512MB or RAM are just the start. Is Nokia poised for a return to the high-end smartphone arena?
The LG Optimus Black, the world’s first Nova display handset, has just been spotted on T-mobile UK’s website. Listed as coming soon, we expect to see a March release — can we pencil you in for one?
A new Galaxy S smartphone, the Galaxy SL i9003, has been revealed. The smartphone features a “Super Clear LCD” and is set to debut at MWC 2011 later this month. We’ve got the scoop and a comparison photo with the original Galaxy S and Optimus 2X.
Last up this morning is news on a new deal between Hulu and Viacom. The deal, finalized this morning, returns both the “Daily Show with Jon Stewart” and “The Colbert Report” to the online streaming service. Unfortunately only Hulu Plus members will have access.
That wraps up the latest and greatest in the world of tech from my side of the pond. As always I’m Nick Marshall, saying over and out. I’ll see you again tomorrow.
