RIM is now coming out like never before with its optical trackball feature. It was initially the Curve 8520 that adopted this feature. Now it’s the turn of the Onyx to be spotted with the optical trackball.
We, of course, had expected something of this sort, after having seen this 3G mix of the Curve 8900 and Bold smartphones. Well, we aren’t complaining – optical trackballs look stylish and they are of great use as well. We have no idea about availability – we’ll keep you posted when we come to know. At the moment, take a look at the pic below.

We have always been mad after the Casio G’zOne line of rugged phones for Verizon Wireless. The Casio EXILIM C721 was exhibited at the CES 2009, so we were just waiting to hear more about this multimedia clamshell phone. This is the very first 5.1MP camera phone with a 3x optical zoom to be introduced by a US carrier.

Though it looks very much like the usual camera phone, it is actually very rugged and water resistant as well. The general form factor and the camera, though hyped so much, are not too impressive. What strikes us the most, though, is how tough the phone really is.
