Now Samsung in Steel Look on Vodafone


Samsung has launched a new handset called Steel, an exclusive-to-Vodafone slider phone.

The Steel features a 3.2 megapixel camera with auto-focus, a large 2.2” screen and with 3G broadband speeds (up to 7.2Mbps), users can download games, video clips, music or emails quickly.

The Samsung Steel has a music player with up to 8GB of storage and Bluetooth connectivity and video calling capabilities. It’s priced at £130 on pay as you talk or free on contract.

Vodafone UK has also launched the slim slider Samsung Soul in pink. The Samsung Soul has a touch-sensitive control panel, meaning key presses are accompanied by a vibrate sensation.

Now Get Web Radio on your PSP


I am writing this after a long break but it was cool.Now it's easy to get web radio on your PSP.

Net radio is high on our list of favourite things, and now Sony's getting in on the act by bringing it to the PSP.

Hour after hour of the likes of Station Agent, Sky.fm 80s and the, ahem, Disney channel, will be available in Japan from 18 December, rolling out around the planet in the coming months.

The addition is part of the Big S's latest firmware update for the Slim+Lite, 3.80.

Japanese punters will get an EPG for scheduling their telly-on-the-go (sadly, we're lacking in that department, as in so many areas on this blasted isle), with video scene search also added.
