The T800 Pocket PC phone series by Fujitsu-Siemens will be released officially on July 3 and July 15. Both the T810 and T830 share the same specs, from the Intel XScale 416MHz processor, 64MB RAM, and 128MB ROM to its integrated GPS functionality. Its features and specs will most probably outmuscle the iPAQ hw6900 when released. The T830 differs from the T810 in one aspect though – the former sports a 2 megapixel digital camera to capture those precious moments while you’re on the go. Via

The upcoming Symbian-powered Sony Ericsson P990 is a powerhouse in the smartphone world when released, while its lesser brother comes the form of the Sony Ericsson P970. The Blackberry-inspired design on the P970 makes it look like a dull brick, although it does have some pretty decent functions including a megapixel camera. Look out for the P970 before the first quarter of 2006 is over.
