PSFK has a great roundup of phones designed by the au Design Project and Yamaha. Each prototype has a unique musical ability about it. My personal favorite is Trio In Your Hand, a phone that folds out into a DJ setup. Link

Just got a tip from an insider at T-Mobile (or is it Google?) that tells me the HTC Dream will feature a keyboard and trackball almost identical to the Sidekick. Does this mean we could see a Sidekick competitor on T-Mobile? It’d be an odd move but the Android-based Dream will most likely be for the geeked out power user. ...

Today’s New York Times reports that many colleges are giving away free iPhones or the iPod Touch to their students. Apple hopes to hook new customers with the program and the schools involved hope to improve communications, test educational applications, and allow online research in class. Many professors are concerned that the devices will be a distraction.

Graffiti design company Krink has followed up their paint drip Incase laptop sleeve with a similarly-designed case for the iPhone 3G. Incase sold Krink’s laptop sleeve online, but for now this phone case is just a one-of-a-kind prototype. This case is pretty cool, even though it does set you up to be the punchline of some very dirty jokes. Hypebeast ...

Finally, our T-Mobile contest has come to an end. Thanks to everyone for entering and big thanks to T-Mobile and SkinIt.com for providing us with some stuff to give away. After wading through all the comments you people left, we decided that Chelsea should get it because she actually has a Sidekick 2008 in hand to put it on. We’ll ...

If you follow politics, you’d know that Barack Obama is announcing his vice president via SMS. Text message. Phone rants. So with a little Verizon Wireless trickery, you too can tell ...

Normally, we tend to stay away from the played out consumer electronics but this particular one deserved a mention. The reason? This is Sony Ericsson’s first cellphone ever on T-Mobile’s US network. Known as the TM506, it’s a decent clamshell phone that will feature 3G, one of the key selling points for T-Mobile since it just rolled out its US ...

Just a quick reminder that our contest ends Friday. You can win a custom Sidekick 2008 case just by leaving a comment with a valid name and e-mail address.

Coming this fall is Palm’s Treo Pro. It’s also the first Treo to support tri-band HSDPA (faster net speed) for 3G access on AT&T and additional carriers. The American launch will start out with an unlocked, carrier-independent version at $549 that’ll feature a sleeker design than previous Treos as well as a touchscreen and a button to quickly switch its ...

For all the iPhone owners out there, I don’t know how you can live without copy and paste functionality. Lucky for you, there’s OpenClip: A non-profit, open source implementation of copy and paste for the iPhone, OpenClip uses an area of the filesystem to enable participating apps to share the contents of a common clipboard. A small number of apps ...
