For those of you who get tired of pressing your phone’s keys frantically during mobile games, Sony Ericsson has heard your plea by releasing the F305 with Motion Gaming.
Basically the premise is pretty simple. Instead of pressing buttons, players now can control games with the flick of a wrist or the swing of an arm. The result will be immediately shown on the screen. The real game example will be imitate bowling movement or casting a fishing line. In fact, F305 comes with three preloaded motion games, “Bowling”, “Bass fishing”, and “Jockey”. There is no news about how many motion games already in the market, but I think it’s not much.

Other gaming features cover horizontal game play and dedicated gaming keys. To complement the F305, Sony Ericsson has provide a handy new accessory to boost the battery life. Attach Power Pack CPP-100 to your keyring and when the phone is low on juice, simply plug it into the phone to receive an instant battery power boost.

Of course, it a multimedia phones with these standard features:
• 2.0 megapixel camera and Bluetooth™
• Expandable memory via Memory Stick Micro™ (M2™) slot.
• Loud stereo speakers
• Exchangeable Style-Up covers
• Comes in two different colors; polar white and mystic black

Running Windows Mobile 6.1 Pro, Samsung i900 offers 3.2-inch WideQVGA display (240×400 pixel) and optical mouse similar to Samsung i780.

Finally, non-threatening-looking robot toys that’s safe for everyone in the family. Ultimate WALL-E and iDance are inspired by WALL-E, animated movie by Disney that will hit theaters this summer. Okay, it may not be as advanced as i-Robot, but at least you got something that can be enjoyed by the whole family - and maybe some neighbors and your office colleagues.

The iDance is basically a dancing boombox that can “sing” and “dance”, maybe similar to Sony Rolly. However the cream of the crop is the Ultimate WALL-E. This sophisticated toy features 10 motors to provide advanced movement and animation. You can program it using a remote that’s very easy to use, even by a kid. In addition, it has follow-me and voice activated mode. Ultimate WALL-E is also equipped with emotion states and sensors to allow him to detect people and navigate around obstacles. You can bring it home for $189.99 later this fall.

If you don’t like the Martian robot explorer idea, you can pick up flying TInker Bell toy later. In the mean time, I’ll find a new “planet” that needs exploring.

Sony Ericsson Mobile Communication announced plans to release a new technology that, for the first time, bridges the Abobe® Flash Lite™ and Java ME™ development platforms. The new technology and tools, referred to as Project Capuchin, make it possible to combine the richness of Flash Lite and Java ME technologies allowing developers to utilize the best attributes of both software stacks to create content-rich mobile applications.

Project Capuchin will provide developers with an intuitive tool to create applications with a cleaner user interface (UI) without sacrificing the strong, feature rich and widely deployed Java ME infrastructure, including secure, well-developed content distribution. It will also allow pure Flash Lite content to be encapsulated in Java ME applications, making content created by Adobe Flash technology appear as Java ME applications.

More advanced capabilities will allow Flash Lite technology to handle an entire presentation layer and make it possible to create Java ME applications where some or all UI components are defined in Flash.

Sony Ericsson has plans to make the technology available during the second half of 2008 and will demonstrate Project Capuchin enabled applications at the JavaOne Developer Event in San Francisco, May 6 – 9, booth 718 in the Pavilion.
