Let’s guess! What features a 4.8 inch touchscreen, EDGE and 3G connectivity and a “bullseye” optical mouse? It might just be the best MID you’ve ever used, or Lenovo’s Ideapad U8, a device that’s got them all: PDA features, GPS, MID functionality and even manages to replace a notebook, at times.
Productivity increases when you’re using Ideapad U8, as it features location-based apps, helping out when you’re visiting a new town plus hand writing recognition with the aid of its touchscreen. Introduced at Intel’s IDF, this useful MID also supports MS Office and includes a 12 key num-pad and our guess is that it’ll run Linux.

After the N98, the N88, the Nokia 101 and the Helsinki concept phone comes this bad, black handset, the Nokia N99 concept. It’s a mean, mean calling/texting/video recording machine featuring an 8 megapixel camera, 16GB internal memory, a 3.2″ display and GPS.
How about that D-pad? Was it designed with N-Gage games in mind or just comfortable navigation?
Also on the specs list of this phone we find MP3 playback, DivX, MPEG and AVI video playback and WiFi. Here’s the old N99 concept below, that we saw an year ago, about the time when the patent of this device surfaced on the Internet. So Nokia, which is it going to, QWERTY or D-pad?

It’s not Samsung BlackJack we’re talking about, nor is it the successor of the famous handset, but rather a pretty good-looking concept, designed by Yuri Kim, from South Korea. The phone resembles LG Prada quite a bit, but it comes with a couple of neat features like a camera mode, MP3 mode, DMB-TV and GPS mode.
What’s really interesting is that you’ll control the phone with motions that resemble those used to handle a deck of cards. A slide to the side makes the handset enter GPS mode, while a slide in upwards makes it enter the MP3 mode. It’s an original way to control the phone and the interface is also worth mentioning for its qualities.

Ever wanted to go to the North Pole or to the centre of the Earth and blog from there? Well, you’re lucky I came over this device you can see in the picture below, the Duros Tablet PC, environmentally sealed and ready to take a serious punch. It’s designed by Roper Mobile Technology and it’s the largest tablet PC with such an “attitude”.
It features WiFi and Bluetooth connectivity plus the classic GSM/GPRS/EDGE/UMTS and it’s got a GPS, so you’ll never get lost on the way from the North to the South Pole. Its display is a 8.4″ SVGA touchscreen, while the heart of this hardcore device is an AMD Geode LX800 processor or an Intel Celeron M 1.0 GHz one. Add 1GB of RAM and 120GB storage to Duros and you’re all set.
Duros runs Windows XP or Linux and it uses hot swappable batteries. It relies on a 44Wh battery that only uses 5W of energy while in standby mode and 15W in standard use. More specs and details here.

We’ve heard about devices that could be used as mobile phones, GPS navigators, media players and remote controls before, but what about expanding the array of features? That’s exactly what the handheld piece of marvel above manages to do. Modu is its name and it may be a concept, but it’s even got a release date, October 1, at least for Russia, Italy and Israel. Find out more, by reading the rest of the entry.

What you can see above is one of last year’s speculations on how Nokia N96 will look like, through the work of a Photoshop artist spotted on Unwiredview. It’s even more interesting when we get to see the specs of this strange beauty, presumably coming out before the also rumored N99:
- 7.1 MP camera with 20x optical zoom
- GPS
- Wi-Fi
- MP3
- Bluetooth plus various other connectivity options
- Live TV and HDTV support
- 8GB storage space
- 3″ display with VGA resolution
This concept phone is based on Symbian 9.5 and it’s a 8.5mm thick device, but its specs are more doable than you may think, since we’ve seen all of them (scattered) on other phones, but never in a single device. Any other feature you’d like in N95’s successor?
