Softbank Mobile is releasing the iPhone 3G Battery Extender with Mobile TV Receiver this Christmas. The device allows users in Japan to charge their iPhone on the go. This battery extender can also function as a One-Seg media broadcast receiver and transmit the video via WiFi signal to iPhone 3G for up to 3 hours. Good Stuff!
The sexy Motorola Krave ZN4 for Verizon looks like a Star Trek communicator, makes a great little portable TV, and incorporates some genuinely innovative touch-screen technology. But its lack of interesting applications leaves some wanting a lot more. The problem with the Kraveis that the bar for touch-screen phones has been raised considerably recently. With the iPhone, the LG Dare (its main competitor), the Samsung Instinct, the T-Mobile G1, and the BlackBerry Storm out there, just having a touch screen isn’t enough anymore. A handset needs to offer fresh software, too. And the Krave’s software feels old—functional but stale. $149 with contract on Verizon.

The Samsung SPH-M320 has a slim, intuitive design with ergonomic controls. It offers Bluetooth, voice dialing, and good photo quality. Its display has a lower-resolution which is a little disappointing. Also, there was some static during calls. Overall, the Samsung SPH-M320 has a decent camera and nice design, but its call quality could be just a bit better. Available now for free on the Sprint network after a $50 rebate.
Specifications:
Band / mode: CDMA2000 1X 1900/800; Talk time: Up to 264 min; Combined with: With digital camera

As we’ve heard, the Storm will pack CDMA / EV-DO Rev. A, quadband EDGE, and 2100MHz HSPA, making it one of the most global phones ever to hit the market. The list of “WOW factors” (Verizon’s verbiage) doesn’t stop there, though. Its also got a 3.25-inch 480 x 360 display dubbed “1/2 VGA+,” which puts it just a notch above the Bold’s 480 x 320 setup. The screen offers tactile feedback and auto-rotation to boot, plus you’ve got that 3.2-megapixel autofocus camera with flash, 1GB of onboard memory with microSD expansion — an 8GB card is included in the box — and “enhanced background noise cancellation.” Turning our attention to software, RIM calls the Storm’s web browsing experience “best in class.” Release TBA.
