Here Is The New Razor (not RAZR, mind you) Phone, The Cool758

The mobile phones available today are getting cooler and cooler by the second! There is this new one, which is called the Cool758, which is a razor phone. Yup, you guys heard right – this thing can actually shave. How much cooler can it get, right? There is already the RAZR V3 from Motorola that is making waves in the market. But is this Cool758 “razor phone” really going to “shave off” many other companies’ profits away?

The shaving implement is located right at the bottom of the mobile phone. You just pop the cap off the bottom and there it is. Well, of course, whether it really does shave at all is the million-dollar question here. Anyway, the Cool758 has a dual-SIM, touchscreen facility. Plus, it has a 2MP camera to fall back on as well. Nothing about the pricing has been mentioned right now.

BlackBerry Gets A New Accessory – A Protective Visor

The latest interesting accessory in mobile town is a visor for the BlackBerry! This little mobile visor offers the perfect lid for your handheld device, by blocking glare from the sun and allowing you see your BlackBerry screen clearly. Not only that, it also gives you privacy from prying eyes, wanting to take a look at what is on your screen.

The visor is pretty tiny when folded flat – it is just about the size of a credit card and can sit pretty in your purse or wallet. It is lightweight, being black plastic and can easily be attached or removed with an elastic band. The mobile visor also has a universal fit and works well with all BlackBerry smartphone models, including the latest Storm.
