If you don’t have a landline anymore, but hate using your mobile phone at home, the Desk Phone Dock turns your iPhone into a landline.

AT&T ZERO Charger

Since with the financial crisis, i think that nobody wants to pay extra money for electricity due to the wastage of energy. But how can we prevent this cause?

Many of us still leave the their cellphone to charge even when it’s fully charged so the charge will continue drawing power, resulting a serious waste of electricity. The AT&T ZERO Charger seems to solve the problem. Being an ultra green charger, the device will stop drawing electricity once the cellphone’s battery is fully charged. This means that you shouldn’t worry about leaving your charger plugged, as well as for the battery lifespan which will not be affected.

February 22nd, 2010 Gadget Freak

Alcatel-OT-808

Unlike most other mobile manufacturers, Alcatel hasn’t exactly been flooding the market with top-of-the-line devices, at least not for a while now. But the design of the OT-808 proves the company might be considering jumping on the smartphone bandwagon.

It might not have the latest features you’re used to, but the Alcatel OT-808 definitely has an interesting design, most uncommon to entry-level handhelds. Its clamshell shape hides a full QWERTY keyboard and a 2.4 inch QVGA display that give the OT-808 a ‘netbook look and feel’.

Other features of the Alcatel OT-808 include an external 1.1 inch OLED display, a 2 megapixel camera, Bluetooth 2.0, Opera Mini browser, email, IM, social networking integration and dual-band GSM connectivity.
