The iPhone has certainly caught the attention of many people when it was released, leading Chinese manufacturers to copy its design as evident by the CECT P168 iFone. You might come close to Apple's design, but you can never, ever replace the user experience. The features found on the iFone include a 3.3" touchscreen LCD display, Bluetooth connectivity, a 2 megapixel camera, a microSD memory card slot, support for audio and video formats, and a stylus. It retails for $199, at- www.shoguru.com which is more than a hundred bucks cheaper from the Aifung (another iPhone clone, obviously). Super Smart Phone Of the Year.

iPhone to drive industry toward fancier touch screens
By Associated Press
SANTA CLARA, Calif. (AP) - Get your fingers ready.
Apple Inc.'s iPhone is leading a new wave of gadgets using touch-sensitive screens that react to taps, swishes or flicks of a finger. The improvements promise to be slicker and more intuitive than the rough stomp of finger presses and stylus-pointing required by many of today's devices.
Apple has already been showing off its finger ballet in video ads ahead of the smart phone's hotly anticipated launch on June 29.
Glide a finger across the screen to activate the device and main menu. Slide your digit up or down to scroll through contacts. Flick to flip through photos. Tap to zoom in on a Web site.
With Apple's marketing machinery, the iPhone is poised to become the poster child for the new breed of touch-screen technology, which relies on changes in electrical currents instead of pressure points.
But the iPhone will have its fair share of rivals.
Shipments of this advanced strain of touch screens are projected to jump from fewer than 200,000 units in 2006 to more than 21 million units by 2012, with the bulk of the components going to mobile phones, according to a forecast by iSuppli Corp., a market research company.
"This new user interface will be like a tsunami, hitting an entire spectrum of devices," predicted Francis Lee, the chief executive of Synaptics Inc., a maker of touch sensors.
Synaptics' latest technology is in a growing number of cell phones, including LG Electronics Co.'s LG Prada touch-screen phone that launched this year in Europe and South Korea and handles gesture-recognition similarly to the iPhone.
Apple does not comment about its component suppliers, and Lee declined to comment whether Synaptics is working with Apple on the iPhone.
Last fall, Nokia Corp.'s research and development unit unveiled online images of a prototype all-touch-screen cell phone called the Aeon, but the company hasn't disclosed any details of its features or market availability.
"Touch screens are going to be more common, period, because rivals will slap them on to compete with Apple," said Michael Gartenberg, an analyst at JupiterResearch.
Even before the iPhone hype kicked into high gear over the past few months, touch screens in general were becoming more popular in cell phones. About 38 million handsets, or about 4 percent of all mobile phones shipped in 2006, had touch-screen features - a figure that will grow to 90 million units by 2012, iSuppli projected.
But most touch-screen phones that shipped last year, including Palm Inc.'s Treo and Motorola Inc.'s ROKR E6, used "resistive touch" technology - the most common technology, said Jennifer Colegrove, a senior analyst of display technologies at iSuppli. It has two layers of glass or plastic and calculates the location of touch when pressure is applied with either a stylus or a finger.
A more advanced type of touch screen, featured on the iPhone and LG Prada, uses "projected capacitive" technology. A mesh of metal wires between two layers of glass registers a touch when the electrical field is broken.
That's why light finger brushes will do the trick. But capacitive sensors don't even need actual physical contact: such touch screens already detect the proximity of a finger from 2 millimeters away, Colegrove said.
Cell phone maker Pantech Co. Ltd., for instance, has a flip-phone in which Synaptics' capacitive sensors are below the keypad so users can do finger gestures atop the buttons to navigate the phone. The touch-sensitive navigation controls on the LG Chocolate cell phone also use capacitive technology.
The feather-like gestures that are possible with capacitive touch screens could feel more intuitive than the pokes needed on resistive touch screens that typically require a stylus or a fingernail to navigate. Capacitive touch screens are also generally brighter because their surface isn't covered with a thin film that's needed on resistive displays, Colegrove said.
However, users of capacitive touch screens will have to learn to adapt to new methods of input, which could vary depending on how the gadget's software is designed.
With High Tech Computer Corp.'s new HTC Touch smart phone, users swipe a finger to scroll. A second swipe speeds up the scrolling.
"We've been doing touch screens for a long time, but this generation of touch screens is definitely breathing new life into the experience," said Todd Achilles, vice president of HTC America. "They're more accurate, more responsive, and you can get what you want to do on the first click."
Immersion Corp., a maker of tactile-feedback technology found in game controllers and other devices, added a vibration feature to go with the LG Prada touch screen and expects 10 more cell phones with advanced touch-screen technology to be introduced by other handset makers later this year.
The feature gives a slight vibration sensation when the touch screen's virtual keyboard is tapped. It's similar to the response users are accustomed to getting from mechanical keyboards.
But the iPhone is the only cell phone that can handle more than one finger at once, analysts say. That technology, which Apple has patented, allows users to resize a window, for instance, by pinching or expanding two fingers on the display.
"Multi-touch" technology is not new but has only recently begun to emerge beyond research labs and product prototypes.
New York University research scientist Jeff Han has developed a large, dazzling multi-touch touch-screen computer display where one could manipulate pictures or data with multiple fingers, and founded Perceptive Pixel last year to market the technology.
Meanwhile, Microsoft Corp. has introduced a coffee-table shaped computer and display that responds to multiple touches at once. The commercial machines are set to begin appearing in some hotels later this year.
But, Colegrove said, the iPhone will be the first product that puts the multi-touch feature in a mainstream consumer's hands - at a retail price of $500 to $600.
With Synaptics' Onyx concept phone unveiled last fall, the component maker claims its capacitive technology can do everything that Apple has shown the iPhone's touch screen can do. But no cell phone makers, other than Apple, appear to have developed the software applications to take advantage of multi-touch features yet, Lee said.
Industry observers say it's only a matter of time before that changes.
"The iPhone," Colegrove said, "is going to be a catalyst for this technology

NEW MOBILE TV PHONES
NCAA basketball fans: Prepare to be jealous.
 | ||||||
| | |||||
In my hand -- yes, I'm typing with one hand -- I have one of two new Verizon Wireless cell phones that show real, live television.
Holding it reminds me of holding a Sony Watchman, the line of mini-TVs from the 1980s and 1990s.
That's because when I say live, I don't mean launching some Web-needy application on your phone and waiting two minutes for it to load only to have the TV signal blink out on you every 20 seconds because it's "buffering." I mean live like go home, turn on your plasma TV and compare CBS to CBS Mobile.
Such a phone would have come in handy during March Madness when you were sitting at work, wishing you could be at home watching the men's NCAA tournament.
I know you're jealous.
Verizon currently offers two phones that support its weeks- old Mobile TV service.
The Samsung SCH-u620 is $149.99 with a two-year contract. A slider phone with a two-inch screen, it comes with all the usual goodies: Bluetooth, room for a MicroSD external memory card and a camera.
The LG VX9400, which is $199.99 with a two-year contract, is slightly bigger and fully loaded with features. The screen of this candybar-style phone hides the numeric keypad and flips out for a better angle to watch TV. The design is ergonomic and eye- catching. If I had Verizon, I would buy this phone.
Now, some of you probably are scratching your heads right now, thinking: Why would anybody want to watch TV on a cell phone?
Actually, according to ABI Research, a lot of people do. U.S. subscriptions to mobile TV services are expected to top 30 million by 2011. And revenue from those subscriptions will top $2 billion by 2010, In-Stat predicts.
Overall, people are just doing a heck of lot more with their cell phones than talking.
Last week, the trade group CTIA opened its annual conference with a report that revenue from data services, money that carriers earn on services other than voice, rose to $15.2 billion in 2006, up 77 percent from 2005. Such services, with text messaging leading the way, now account for roughly 13 percent of the carriers' total revenue.
So, TV cell phones, here we come!
Aside from being able to watch NCAA games at work, I think being able to flip to Nickelodeon from anywhere will give parents a reason to use Verizon's Mobile TV -- and pacify their children. The seven other channels are: ESPN, MTV, Comedy Central, CBS, Fox News, NBC and NBC News 2GO. More, I'm told, are on the way.
But what's really cool about this service -- and what sets it apart from others on the market -- is that Verizon's Mobile TV doesn't affect your air time or your data plan. The channels are piped via a separate network run by MediaFLO USA.
That means you can answer the phone while you're watching TV.
It also means you can watch as much or as little as you want, and you won't get charged by the minute like you would for making a phone call or by the kilobyte like you would for downloading a ringtone.
Services such as MobiTV, available through other carriers, charge based on the amount of data used as a Web connection is required. Verizon's Mobile TV is a flat $15 a month.
AT&T customers -- that's you, Cingular folk -- soon may get access to a similar service as the carrier just inked a deal with MediaFLO USA, too. AT&T currently carries MobiTV.
New Mobile Phones Will Seamlessly Switch to WiFi
The market for mobile phones that can seamlessly switch to Wi-Fi will be exploited by Cisco Siemens and startup DiVitas Networks, according to CRN's Channel Web on Monday.
"The Holy Grail for users is being able to unify enterprise and cellular calling on a single device that seamlessly switches between the two technologies, meaning, for example, that a call initiated on the cellular network can transfer to the Wi-Fi network without interruption once a user is in range," Jennifer Follett wrote.
Now, Siemens Communications, Cisco Systems's Linksys and a startup called DiVitas Networks have each launched products to deliver this kind of mobile phone.
"Six months ago, I had a BlackBerry and two cell phones. This drives that down to one device," said Doug Chesler, president of Federal Network Services, a VAR in Woodinville, Wash. "It's something that everybody has been waiting for."These kinds of phones call called Fixed-Mobile Convergence (FMC) solutions.
"You're able to seamlessly roam from any network to any other, [even if] these networks are controlled by different entities," said Vivek Khuller, founder and CEO of DiVitas. "[We] make sure the applications you need to get your job done when you're not at your desk are available to you equally across any of these devices, and when you roam from one network to the other, the call doesn't drop."
Historically, some wireless carriers have felt threatened by Wi-Fi enabled phones.The Apple iPhone as currently specified can access the Web via Wi-Fi with Safari and e-mail, but not something like Skype. Voice calls are constrained to the AT&T cellular system.
