iPhone buzz isnt yet dead and Nokia is on an edge to release its new Symbian based competitor over iPhone. Named TUBE(TBD) whose design and working has been leaked in a developer conference and which was confirmed by Nokia official stating that the ‘Tube” will run on Nokia’s Symbian S60 flavored operating system.

The Tube boasts about consisting of 3G, Wi-Fi, and GPS chip with a screen dimension between 3 to 3.5 inches. Thats surely a feast to an eye.No matter what, the size of the Tube is supposed to be wider than Nokia’s N73. A feature called GeoTagging is added to the feature list which would enable the user to tag the photos taken by using the camera of the Tube.

Nokia officials, as told to the freaks of Symbian stated that the Tube wouldnt be using the same as iPhone’s “multi-touch” but a feature called “tactibility feedback”. Sounds kewl,huh? By the time Nokia comes around with the release date of Tube which would probably be the second half of this year, iPhone would have relased its 3G version.

Love to lay hands over this piece of beauty to have a look at its UI. Hmmm, does it beat Mac OS X?

LG KU990 Viewty

The LG Viewty (LG-KU990) has been launched in India. It was unveiled by Bollywood’s latest hearthrob, Deepika Padukone. Within five weeks of the handset’s launch in Europe this year, LG Viewty has already sold over 310,000 units globally.

The LG Viewty has a 5 megapixel camera with Schneider-Kreuznach lens and a Xenon flash. The ISO800 and SmartLight, and one-touch image stabilizer helps in clicking clear photos even in poor light or shaking conditions. The 3-inches LCD full-touch screen is enhanced with a touch signal to allow users confirm proper functioning of the touch-screen. Pictures once taken can be instantly viewed and edited on the LCD screen using the handwriting editing function.

The Viewty has a 120fps video recording function for shooting videos. The videos can be shared through single-click connection via HSDPA 3.6 high speed internet capability to YouTube.

The ‘ergonomic quotient’ of the handset is improved thanks to the jog wheel placed on the backside, which mainly makes for quick scrolling and searching, as also turning the volume up and down, fast-forwarding and rewinding, zooming- in and out, etc. In three steps, users can select modes, including camera, video, and album.

LG India Director (Sales and Marketing) V. Ramachandran added in a statement: “We want to consolidate our position in the Indian market and are targeting 8-10 per cent market share in a couple of years.
