Samsung OmniaHD, LG GD900 Transparent Keypad, Acer To Unveil 8 Smartphones At MWC, Lenovo IdeaPad S20

To answer Richard's question, it looks like 1080p on a small device might actually make a significant difference. One example would be using YouTube on an iPod Touch and watching "Jizz In My Pants" in HD and non-HD, you'll see a noticeable difference. Another example is looking at the OmniaHD and the Omnia. The OmniaHD's screen is significantly brighter, even on the default settings. The vibrant colours will also make the font's legibility better, but i think the Nvidia MIDs was just talking about video playback, so HD may not impact it much. Anyways, The beautiful colour of the flower on the OmniaHD just stands out!

I talked about Acer before and said that they were going to be releasing 4 new smartphones today and they pulled through. But, a new announcement says that they will release 8 new smartphones. So, the 4 from earlier today and 4 new ones to be released in the next couple of days. Hopefully, they won't all run on WinMo 6.1 or else that will be very disappointing.

The transparent keypad from LG will be sported on the LG GD900. Like you, i wanted another picture of this "transparent" keypad. Well, there it is for you. I'm curious to see the specs on this phone, but they [LG] still haven't revealed them. But, all you need to know is that the phone looks good. Now all we need is a video to see the supposed "glow" on this superb-looking phone.

So, the Lenovo will be releasing a 12-inch version of their IdeaPad netbook, dubbed the S20. They already have S10's which only sport 10-inch screens. Anyways, the S20's will "come equipped [with] an Atom N280 processor and Intel's GN40 chipset, along with Windows XP, and [will] cost about $586 [USD]." Hoorah!
