We’ve been scathing about a few recent cameraphones, we’ll admit. This is mainly because, smart (and modest) as we are, we realise that the 12 megapixel promise actually guarantees nothing but enormous file sizes should you choose to shoot in the highest res mode. And given that most of these cameraphones have had little more than toy lenses attached to their light sensors, even if those light sensors have had megapixels crammed into them tighter than idiots into a Michael Jackson memorial concert they still wouldn’t take a decent picture.
The LG Louvre, however, has a decent looking lens from comedy-German-named lens experts Schneider-Kreuznach, manufacturers of millions (and millions) of very decent lenses over the last near-century of their existence. And, even if this might not be as scientific, if you have a little Google Image hunt, you’ll find that the back of the LG Louvre GC990 looks more like a dedicated camera than a phone. And, as looking at the kind of idiots that attend memorial services proves, you can more often than not judge by looks.
The Louvre, or GC990 as it will more likely be called once LG get their ducks in a row and actually confirm a release date for this thing, might actually just be the best of the upcoming batch of 12MP cameraphones… you heard it here first. Hear it second in this LG Louvre review. Have a look at these LG mobile phones. And watch this space…
Like a destitute homeless guy reciting Shakespearean sonnets on your street corner, Motorola have produced a bit of a stir with the 
No sooner have we written a witty, inventive blog post about the HTC Magic being, well, magic as it makes things disappear. Most notably that was the physical keyboard of its predecessor the G1, and, as you might expect, the Magic was claimed to be all the slimmer, fitter and healthier because of it. That G1 keyboard was taking up a fair bit of room, and adding more than its fair share of grams to the package, and we were all for this bit of disappearing.
Sometimes, someone in the world of the blogosphere writes something so apt, so correct, so downright pithy in their attempts to describe something, that there simply is no other alternative but to steal it, claim it as your own and make absolutely no reference to who originally produced said genius statement. So, here goes our own little contribution to the back-stabbing, phrase-stealing, lack-of-footnoting realm that is where we spend inordinate amounts of our days.
Sometimes, just for fun (yeah, we know, we’re sad – deal with it), we like to identify lies and out them, as though they were witches and we were some kind of medieval witch hunters. So when the 
Ahh, Teflon, is there anything you can’t do. Well, yes, now we think about it. You probably can’t / shouldn’t be used as, say, plant food, because you are inedible. But aside from all the things you can’t do, there are an increasing number of things you can. First non-stick pans, today mobile phone coatings, tomorrow the world. Or the inedible parts of the world, at least. But let’s focus on what’s happening today (or in the very near future), because Teflon is making its debut appearance on mobile phone in the (weird) shape of the 
It’s not often we find ourselves saying this, but the here goes: this phone has plenty of great features, even a couple of uniquely new features, that make it more than stand its ground in its category, but we just don’t care.
As any good magician knows, one of the main tricks to master is that of making things disappear. And, as if by some kind of sorcery (or perhaps through the work of some research and development spods, along with the help of some phone technicians – either way) the
