Yeah, so what if it gives you cancer, at least you’ll die looking cool. In exclusive pics published on Gizmodo, the prototype of the new Motorola Capri is seen looking very similar to the Motorola Razrs. No info has been released yet, but insiders say the hot new slider phone will come with a high resloution camera and plenty of MP3 storage.

This is the latest iPod accessory: the Aquatune waterproof speaker dock. Avaliable exclusively in Japan for $130, the retro gadget can withstand full immersion in water. The case includes 3 watt, 2 channel output speakers that are powered by replaceable batteries. The case, which is constructed of high quality polycarbonate material, will float in the pool or hot tub, as well as protecting your iPod.
Yeah I don’t get why you’d actually want to put your iPod in a pool, but it looks pretty…

Wow…have a look at this new powertoy from Sony - not sure of the release date in the UK, but its currently available from the US SonyStyle store for pre-order, at about $1800! Still, with the current exchange rate, not bad value compared to the competition…

to give the pic some perspective, the screen is 4.5″ of colourful brightness, and overall the unit is about the size of an average paperback book.
Bloody fiddly looking to use, and blindness-inducing trying to write word documents on the tiny 1024×600 res screen, but who cares when it looks like this??

Another day another hot phone is announced, this time the Nokia E61 - looks a bit blackberry-ish, and is intended to do most of the same stuff, but with a raft of extra features and support for attachments and microsoft office documents, as well as being ‘3G’.
Runs the sony m600 pretty close by the looks of it, certainly another for the ‘I want one’ list!

The new Sony-Ericsson M600 email phone…truly beuatifully designed to be the ipod of the phone world, and at long last incorporating push email a la blackberry…my choice would be a black one. Screen resolution and image quality look amazing, and the list of features make me want to trash the blackberry and get one of these as soon as they’re available! See pic below:
