Sharp's wireless TV
Wall mounting a flatscreen TV, but don’t want cables dangling out the back? Then you need Sharp’s new box of tricks. It’s been made in partnership with AMIMON, and sends full HD pictures in uncompressed form from any source to Sharp’s new X-series LCD TVs. It’ll work up to 30 metres, and even beams pictures through walls. It’s on sale in Japan with the new TVs already, but there’s no word on when it’ll hit the UK. Yet. TBC | £TBC Sharp

LG prada
Despite trying its best, LG's fashion tie up with Prada was left somewhat in the iPhone's shadow. Now it looks like it's trying to claw back some respect with an updated spec and a full slide out Qwerty keyboard. According to a spec sheet seen by Eprice, it will feature a 3in widescreen 400x240 pixel touch sensitive display and supports super fast HSDPA downloads. The camera has been boosted to a hefty 5 megapixels and there's also a camera face side for video calls. Add on a full HTML web browser, FM radio, TV out and microSD card slot and it's an impressive sounding piece of kit. Out Q4 2008 | £depends on contract LG Prada (via Unwired View)
Nokia 3600
If you tend to hang around in aircraft hangers or Formula 1 race pits, then the Nokia 3600 slide is the phone to you. Thanks to its background noise cancellation, you'll be able to shut out the world and just tune into your callers. It's an alright snapper too, with a 3.2 megapixel camera and 2 LED flash, so your prey can't escape even in low light conditions. You can also see the fruits of your labour writ large, thanks to the TV-out function so you can view your photos and videos on the big screen. Out summer 2008 | £depends on contract Nokia
