Huawei SmaKit S7
,----[ Quote ]
| If you thought the Dell Mini 5 (5-inch
| screen) was big for a phone, you havenât
| seen the Huawei SmaKit S7 (7-inch screen)!
| In all due fairness, the device is
| considered a MID with 3G voice capabilities,
| and with Bluetooth youâll probably be using
| a headset to talk more often than not.
| Either way, it looks like another winning
| announcement from Huawei.

Moto shows off eighth Android 'andset
,----[ Quote ]
| Motorola today took the wraps of yet
| another Android smartphone, this one called
| Quench and based around a 3.1in
| touchscreen.
|
| If the Quench seems familiar, it's because
| its already been annouced, kind of.
| Recently, Motorola unveiled the Cliq XT in
| the US, and the Quench is the same handset,
| tweaked for the European market just as it
| renamed the US-oriented Droid as the
| Milestone over here.
