LG & Verizon's Chocolate Rhapsody
No, that's not a wireless dessert. Verizon and Rhapsody just announced a joint venture to merge the popular Rhapsody subscription music service with Verizon's V CAST music service. Since everyone in the popular media is covering this partnership, we'll deal with the hardware side. Verizon said that nine of its current V CAST phones can be used with the new service.
But the first true Rhapsody-optimized phone, due later this summer, will be the LG Chocolate 3. No pricing has been announced yet.
This year's Chocolate will be a flip phone rather than a slider, with the music control wheel on the outside flap. You'll also get an FM transmitter to beam your Rhapsody tunes through your car's stereo system. For slightly more private listening, the C3 has dual speakers and for even more private listening, stereo Bluetooth.
For storing your songs, C3 has a GB of internal memory and a high capacity micro SD card slot. The specs say you can add up to 4 GB this way, but the high-capacity SD spec says you should be able to slide in up to a 32 GB card, when they become available.
Aside from Rhapsody, the C3 is also an ESPN MVP phone and sports a 2 MP camera.

T-Mobile subscribers will get access to arguably the carrier's best music phone and a phone with the most unusual touchscreen interface ever, the Motorola E8 ROKR, next Monday, July 7. It'll be priced at $199 with a two-year contract and a $50 mail-in rebate, $249 with a one-year contract and a $50 mail-in rebate, or $349 sans contract.
On the face of the candybar E8 is a unique touchscreen. In normal mode, backlights display the usual dialpad . When in music mode, the screen shows only music controls (left). In 2 MP camera mode, you get imaging controls (right). When asleep, the E8's glass face is glossy black with only tiny raised dots indicating where backlit controls will be.
And when you press a backlit button, you get localized haptics, squishy tactile feedback that lets you know you sucessfully pushed the virtual button.
While the quasi-touchscreen and haptic sensation is unusual, the ROKR's real purpose is as a music player. Inside the E8 is 2 GB of built-in memory, which can be supplemented via the high capacity microSD card slot. 8 GB cards just became available, so the E8 can boast up to 10 GB in music and photo memory. E8 also supports a wide variety of non-DRM music formats including MP3, AAC, AAC+, Enhanced AAC+, WMA and Real Audio v10. Cleverly, any track you load in can be assigned as a ringtone.
Music continues to play regardless of whatever application you navigate to. E8 is equipped with a 3.5 headphone jack and comes with a stereo earphones, or you can take advantage of its stereo Bluetooth capability. Unfortunately, T-Mobile has no music services, so you'll have to supply your own tunes.
Speaking of navigation, you navigate through all the E8's menus via what Motorola calls a FastScroll arc, a sort-of scroll wheel. A ModeShift button on the side gets you instantly to the camera, and a music icon on the front touchscreen gets you instantly to the music player.
As a phone, E8's conversational abilities are enhanced by Motorola's ClearTalk technology. E8 is only an EDGE phone – T-Mobile doesn't yet offer a high-speed network, but you also get an FM radio in case your own music bores you.

Motley Crue: Back as Saints
If Motley Crue made you "Feelgood" in the 80s, you're in luck, because these rockers are actually back again. This time, their single is called "Saints of Los Angeles" off of their new album "Saints of Los Angeles." They sound pretty much the same in all of their energetic hair band glory. Glad they returned to share their talents with the current generation ...

All I Want to Do is Listen to Sugarland
There's not many country music duos in the top 40 these days, but Sugarland's single "All I Want to Do" has really taken off. Sugarland was founded in 2003 by Kristian Bush and Jennifer Nettles, along with original member Kristen Hall, who left in 2005 for a solo career. Looks like these two are doing awfully well on their own!

Remember yesterday when we touted cellphones with 5 MP digital cameras? 5 MP? Piffle!
Sony-Ericsson has upped the megapixel ante with its slider-style Cyber-shot C905, which contains an 8.1 MP digital camera, which will be available in the fall for $499.99.
Since Sony has affixed its Cyber-shot name to the C905, you can be assured that its camera meets Sony's exacting optics and image capture standards. Behind the sliding shutter guard are Sony lenses, a Xenon flash and video light. Like the company's standalone digicams, the C905 includes "smile shutter," a software sensor that detects a subject's smiles and automatically snaps the picture, "smart contrast" that compensates for varying lighting situations from one part of the picture to another and, of course, the ever-present face detection.
Your viewfinder is a bright 2.4-inch, 240 x 320 scratch-resistant glass LCD screen. To get the high-res photos off the phone, the C905 includes DLNA-compatible WiFi to transmit photos or video to a DLNA-compatible HDTV or upload to your blog site, a USB adapter, and will ship with a 2 GB Memory Stick micro (M2) that slides into an M2 slot that accepts up to an 8 GB card.
On the phone side, the 7.2 Mbps HSPA network compatible C905 includes A-GPS, which combines cell tower triangulation with traditional satellite GPS to speed location detection and also geo-tags images, a media player and stereo Bluetooth. For the fashion-conscious, it'll be available in Night Black (pictured), Ice Silver and Copper Gold.

Moto and Kodak Partner on 5 MP Cellcam
Two of the oldest American technology brands have partnered to create the highest megapixel camera phone available in the U.S. (along with the Nokia N96 and N82). The Motorola Motozine ZN5 is a candybar cellphone up front and a 5 MP Kodak camera behind.
Unlike other camera phones, the ZN5 acts like a real camera. You slide down the lens cover to activate the camera. The shutter release button is right on the top right where you'd expect. Press the shutter halfway and the autofocus swings into action. And pressing the shutter all the way instantly snaps the scene – none of the usual slow second-or-so shutter delay between press and capture on other camera phones.
The ZN5 includes other digicam-like features such as multi-shot and panorama photo stitching, which patches together multiple consecutive exposures to create a extreme wide view. There's also an unusually powerful (for a cellcam) Xenon flash.
There's 350 MB of memory inside the phone to save photos to, or you can slide in a roomier 4 GB micro SD card. Once saved, you can upload your shots to Kodak's Kodak Gallery site, use ShoZu to upload them to varying social networking service, or off-load them via more traditional Bluetooth or wired connections. You can also print prints on Kodak's Bluetooth-compatible printers or Kodak Picture Kiosks.
Like Moto's pending E8, the ZN5 features the company's innovative haptic keypad that provides local tactile feedback when you hit a button. The touch sensitive keypad also displays backlit icons for functions specific to whatever application the phone is in.
As a phone, the ZN5 functions on GSM networks and offers Motorola's CrystalTalk technology which makes voices sound more landline-like. Instead of locating the phone's address book and looking up a name, you can just start tapping the name you're looking for and the appropriate name and number pops up on the screen. There's also a music player with stereo Bluetooth.
The ZN5 will first be available in China in time for the Beijing Olympics. Everyone else will have to wait until the games are over.

Boy George is back in the news again. This time he claims to be devastated because he has been denied entry into the United States where he was planning to perform a show in New York City. Boy George's management believes he was denied entry to the US because he was charged in London last November with false imprisonment following a complaint from a 28-year-old man. Interesting ...
The controversy makes our Boy George ringtone all the more silly. Whether or not you're a Boy George fan, this Boy George ringtone sure is fun:

iPhone-killer Instinct Goes on Sale
Getting a three-week jump on the second-generation of its inspiration, Instinct by Samsung goes on sale at Sprint stores nationwide Friday, June 20, for $129.99.
Samsung and Sprint think they have an iPhone-killer on their hands, for $70 less than the coming iPhone 3G. Samsung will be putting its money where its beliefs are, investing $100 million in marketing and advertising.
What's the big deal? While it closely resembles iPhone features-wise and physically – it's hard for any fully touchscreen phone not to – Instinct offers myriad bells and whistles not available on the current iPhone and some not even on the pending Apple 3G version. The biggest difference is Instinct's localized haptics – a tactile feedback under your finger after touching a screen icon simulating a physical button push.
Technically, Instinct has a 3.1-inch touchscreen and is Sprint's first EV-DO Rev. A phone, offering a slight data speed boost (2.4 mbps vs. 3.1 mbps) over plain old EV-DO. Because of the faster 3G Rev. A speeds, Samsung has eschewed WiFi in Instinct. Instinct's A-GPS adds directions to an address in your contact list from where you are and supplies weather conditions and forecasts based on your location, and provides vocal turn-by-turn directions. It also has an iPhone-like gyroscope that senses in what position you're holding the phone.
Instinct also will be the first Sprint phone with visual voicemail – choose the message you want to hear from a list rather than listening to all of them in sequence, as well as threaded chat and direct photo upload to Flickr or Facebook.
More pedantically, Instinct includes a 2 MP camera, full IMAP and POP3 email and supports Microsoft Exchange, a 3.5mm headphone jack, and an HTML browser from a company called Telica. And, of course, you have speedy access to all of Sprint's music and video services.
There's things missing from the Instinct, however. There's no integrated on-board memory, for instance – you'll have to spend more to get a high-capacity SD card, and you're limited to 8 GB. You get a pre-loaded 2 GB card, however, and a second battery and separate charger are included.
Instinct plan pricing starts at $69.99/month for 450 voice minutes or talk/message/data minutes, or Sprint's Simply Everything Plan, unlimited nationwide voice and data services for $99.99/month.
We're playing with an Instinct now and we'll have a full report before the iPhone goes on sale.

File this one under "Why didn't anyone think of this before?"
LG's new Decoy slider, available from Verizon for $179.99 after rebates and two-year contract, has a Bluetooth earpiece piggy-backed to it. Once paired, the pair remained paired thanks to the new Bluetooth 2.1 protocol. Plug in the Decoy and the attached earpiece charges as well, eliminating a charger.
DUH!
LG didn't just tack on a Bluetooth earpiece and skimp on the rest of this EV-DO multimedia phone. Decoy is fully V CAST compatible, able to access all of Verizon's music, application and game downloads, VZ Navigator and streaming video services, sports a 2 MP digital camera, and is compatible with Hotmail, AOL and Yahoo! email and instant messaging. Its music player can play back MP3, WMA, AAC and iTunes new AAC+ non-DRM tracks.
On the outside, Decoy sports a 2.2-inch mirror-like LCD screen, a two-tone silver and black glossy front, and a blue satin back where its Bluetooth earpiece dock is located.
But what kind of name is "Decoy"? What does that have to do with the innovation of a piggybacked Bluetooth earpiece?

Dark Knight Returns from Nokia
Here's a phone Bruce Wayne would be proud to carry, whether he's wearing a cowl or not. Technically known as the Nokia 6205, this black beauty is the Dark Knight edition, specially designed to coincide with the opening of the new Batman movie, The Dark Knight, on July 18. It's now available for super heroes and super hero fans from Verizon for $69.99 after the usual rebates and contract stipulations.
Inside the box is a Joker card with a code to link to the www.fightforgothamcity.com Web site. Once on the Web site, you can find out if you've
won The Joker’s "bag of cash" containing $10,000 and other games to win more The DarkKnight-themed prizes.
Inside the phone is a 1.3 MP camera, 58 MB of memory that can be supplemented by a microSD card of up to 4 GB, access to Verizon's V CAST music service and exclusive access to special The Dark Knight content and Verizon's VZ Navigator navigation application.
If you're not into comic books – er, we mean graphic novels – there'll be a metallic blue and silver version of the 6205 available next month.

What do Pussycat Dolls become when they grow up? Other kinds of older cats? I'm not sure, but according to their new single, the Pussycat Dolls want the following:
1) To be famous
2) To be a star
3) To be in movies
4) See the world
5) Drive nice cars
6) Have groupies
Sounds nice. I think the dolls have pretty much all of those things ... so I guess they're grown up already?

The good news is, Apple's iPhone 3G, which chief Apple buffer Steve Jobs announced earlier today, will load Web pages and download files more than twice as fast as the current EDGE version, includes true GPS capabilities, can manipulate Microsoft Office documents, will be available in 8 and 16 GB versions for $199 and $299 respectively (with the usual contract stipulations), and new iPhone 2.0 firmware will open the door to a flood of innovative iPhone native applications, which will either be free or cost just $9.99.
The bad news is, you'll have to wait a month to get it all. The new iPhone 3G models and the new iPhone 2.o (free to iPhone owners, $99 for iTouch owners) won't go on sale until July 11.
Among the 3G's simpler improvements is a flush headphone jack, which means you don't have to search for the rare compatible set of headphones or headphone/mic combos. While we don't yet have the actual physical details, the iPhone 3G retains the original's 3.5-inch LCD screen and the 2 MP camera but still no video, and is almost exactly the same size – it's just .02 inches thicker and .1 ounce lighter.
Considering how much more there'll be to play with, it's a good thing the new model gets a battery boost – 300 hours of 3G standby, 10 hours of 2G talk-time (original has only 5), 5 hours of 3G talk-time (most 3G phones only have 3 hours of talk time), 5 to 6 hours of 3G browsing, 7 hours of video, and 24 hours of iPod music playback.
The 16 GB version also will be available with a white back as well as the new black. One report from Jobs' announcement reported there'd be a 32 GB version for $399, but none of Apple's subsequent materials included any mention of this version.

Sidewalk Surfing Sidekick from Tony Hawk and T-Mobile
Try not to check your messages on the Tony Hawk edition Sidekick LX while you're grinding a rail or catching some air. But you'll be able to shoot some POV video with it since this limited edition Sidekick, available in July from T-Mobile, will be the first to offer video record and share capabilities.
Hawk even tried to make his Sidekick look and feel like a skateboard. The rear of the slate-grey device emblazoned with his hawk graphic feels like the textured grip-tape top of a 'board with eight simulated screws. You'll also get a video of Hawk performing tricks and skate-themed swivel open and close sounds. Among its technical features are the expected Sidekick email, texting, MySpace Mobile and music playback apps as well as a more personalized Web browsing experience, stereo Bluetooth and more theme and background personalization options than other un-Hawk Sidekicks. All Sidekick LX owners, however, will get an over-the-air update with all the Hawk-edition enhancements, including video recording.
As part of the promotional campaign this summer, T-Mobile will help sponsor Hawk's Boom Boom HuckJam 2008 North American Tour and the sk8tr's Tony Hawk Foundation, and a contest with a prize package including a trip to LA and a chance to meet Hawk. Current Sidekick LX owners will get an exclusive chance to upgrade to the Hawk edition before it's available to everyone else.

More Exclusive Hotties than Bungalow 8
We all love to be special and get fancy. You probably haven't even considered the fact that even your ringtone can make you cooler than everyone else. Maybe you have, that's why you're at Thumbplay.
One great way to be better than the other kids is with exclusive hit ringtones. Thumbplay gets these ringtones because hot artists know we are the shizz when it comes to delivering the best music to cell phones. Seriously. We're pretty great at it and we've got a lot to offer ...
Ok, maybe now I'm coming on too strong like a cougar on Ashton Kutcher. All I know is that Thumbplay's a lot more inviting than Bungalow 8, not that I'm hating on the club, just that I can get about 50 ringtones for the price of one of their drinks!
Check out these exclusive ringtones on Thumbplay - that's right, you can't get them anywhere else :)
Rihanna - Take A Bow (Don't Tell Me You're Sorry)
Ne-Yo - Closer (I Just Can't Stop)
Three Days Grace - Gone Forever

Labels: Exclusive, hit single
