Earlier, we had published information and provided a leaked picture of the Sony Ericsson Kurara. Well now once again, we have some more leaked pictures of the Kurara. These are the live pictures posted by folks over at the SEMC Blog.

There has been some new information gathered:

• It runs on Symbian S60.
• It has a 3.5″AMOLED Touchscreen Display
• It has an 8.1Megapixl Camera with Portrait Mirror and it seems to lack the LED flash which we previously thought was present.
• It maybe capable of recording HD Videos.

While many rumours claim it to be an media centric device with good imaging capabilities, the lack of an LED flash causes doubt. The handset is set to be launched in 2010 at an unknown price.

Gizmodo first reported this news few hours ago.  The company ChinaOnTrade calls it the midboard of the iPhone 4G.

Looks like Apple knows that even its best offering – the  3GS is loosing it’s shine mainly due to more feature rich offerings from other brands like Nokia N900 , HTC HD 2 ,  Sony Xperia X10.

Perhaps the iPhone 4G is launching sooner than expected. And India might get the 3GS once the 4G is out as they dump stocks here.

Another interesting piece of information on the chinese site.

We also have final pictures of iPhone 4 Generation with amazingly beautiful back cover

We look forward to seeing the back cover.

You might have seen non-touchscreen phones , normal touchscreen phones and phones with support multi touch like the iPhone  or HTC Hero. Nokia seems to be working 3D Multi-Touch according to a recent patent filing

The screen will not only detect your finger position but also how much pressure you are putting on the screen. Imagine pressing the screen really hard to delete a message and a soft press for a scroll.

For now its just work in progress and actual implementation might take a lot of time.

If Skype buys Gizmo Pr0ject this means they would start using the SIP standard as far as I understand.  Using SIP means that Skype would suddenly be interoperable with services like Google Chat (including video and voice chat), Truphone, and many of the other VOIP services.

In Truphone’s case this is a big deal because they would suddenly have an added available user base of many many million potential users.  Truphone is the only widely known mobile VOIP (only, leaving out IM clients) client and they are very popular in some circles but unfortunately totally unknown in most.  The interoperability with Skype would give them in my opinion the potential for instant fame.  They would be the most known interoperable mobile VOIP client and suddenly be thrust into the spotlight.
As far as the “Next Billion” goes, I tend to see for example people in India using VOIP over Skype more often for a variety of reasons, including the ability to put mobile VOIP on Nokia phones more easily then Skype. The fact that Skype is the most used internet telephone in world suddenly being able to communicate with  mVOIP would give people in India the chance to communicate, with hundreds of millions of additional people the world over.  They would be able to do more business, talk to family and just interact with more people the world over.
Essentially besides Michael Robertson the creator of Gizmo Project and the GP board/investors, I think Truphone has the potential to come out gaining the most out of this acquisition.  It might work nicely for Nokia too being the easiest devices to put your SIP details into and start making calls.

I guess we’ll all just have to wait and see how all this play out, We may not know if Skype is going to buy Gizmo Project potentially until mid December because Skype is still trying to fight the lawsuits and come up with their own work around.  I don’t really foresee Skype wanting to part with the rumored $50 million for GP but they just may be backed into a corner.  If it does go thorough though it would be a huge win for Michael, so good luck to you and GP.

via Dailymobile and it was leaked earlier . The phone is due to in 2009 end and looks like this is a Proto unit

While the above images make the phone look like a nice present for your Girlfriend , the phone will be available in other colors too including Black, White, Blue, Green and Violet. One area where Nokia needs to concentrate is the low-cost segment which is getting kinda boring . Emerging markets like India , Africa and China can do wonders for Nokia if it improves its portfolio. They are already facing trouble from the Chinese and Korean handsets which very smartly priced and are fully loaded.

Both the devices ie Sunny and Susan look very similar to Nokia 6500 Slide and Nokia 6500 Classic respectively. The main similarities being the chrome accents and keypads.

Sony Ericsson Sunny

Sunny is a slider with a unique curved bottom portion. The video shows a 5 Megapixel Camera with LED flash but lacks a lens cover. Screen size looks approximately around 2.2-2.4″. The only other feature known is the presence of an accelerometer which enables auto-rotation of screen.

Sony Ericsson Susan

Susan is a candybar with a similarly shaped bottom portion. It also sports a 5Megapixel camera with LED and lacking  a lens cover. Screen size the same and accelerometer is again present.

Both the handsets have very good and similar styling and uses lot of metal elements. The videos shows drops of water which might be indicating some splash-proof feature.

We’ll be on the look-out for more information and update on the same.
