Lumigon To Launch Its First Smartphone On Oct 20th
The folks over at Lumigon seem to be rather capable at designing some pretty looking mobile phones, and now the company has posted a notification on its Facebook page, promising users that its T1 phone will be unveiled on October 20th, with pre-orders for the device being taken from the 20th of September. If what the company claims is true, the device will offer specifications such as:

Slip Up: Nokia Devices Spotted With Android UI
This is probably just a sloppy mistake by a designer out there somewhere, but an eagle-eyed person noticed a poster showing the Nokia 5230 and X6 over at Oxford Street, sporting Google’s Android interface. It doesn’t look like Android will officially be used by Nokia anytime soon, but it does get your mind thinking what it would be like. It’s an interesting idea, though it doesn’t seem likely as Nokia seems to be banking rather heavily on its Symbian 3 powered N8 phone.

Microsoft Giving Windows Phone 7 Devices To Employees
Microsoft must be getting pretty serious about the adoption of its upcoming Windows Phone 7 (WP7) operating system, as the software giant has promised all employees a free smartphone at its Global Exchange meeting, which would see as many as 90,000 staff members getting a WP7 device when it begins to ship sometime before the holiday. It wasn’t stated which company would be supplying the phones, but you can expect that an order of 90,000 devices would make most manufacturers happy. Such a move could also be part of an action to reduce the number of competitors’ devices at the company, as many Microsoft employees do carry iPhones, BlackBerrys, or Android-powered devices.

Phone Support For Beauty
You got to agree that the skeletal system is a genius of design; it protects the delicate organs inside while giving support to our lustrous skin. If we were to apply the same design for our mobile phones then it’s quite possible to wipe out the peripheral “phone covers and cases” industry. I’m talking about the LG Exo Smartphone Concept. The key feature in this concept is a high strength polymer exoskeleton for protecting the delicate internal components while supporting its external rubber skin.
The end result is a good-looking phone that does not require any protective case that mars its beauty. You get to enjoy the phone in its intended avatar! The reason why I relate to this concept is that my gorgeous iPhone lies hidden beneath this hideous cover, lest it falls down and cracks!
