Details of Sony's new PSP Go have leaked ahead of the company's Tuesday press conference at E3 in a big way, with press shots appearing on gaming site Eurogamer and a video from PlayStation Network show Qore on YouTube. And while we don't yet have a comprehensive list of the new PSP's feature list, the leaked info gives us a pretty good idea of what we can expect -- including hints of several new games. The leaked video is embedded below. Host Veronica Belmont (formerly of this parish) talks to John Koller, director of hardware marketing at Sony Computer Entertainment America, about the new portable console. (Note: The audio is out of sync and exhibits a buzz, but it's watchable enough -- though we wouldn't be surprised to see it pulled off YouTube soon.) From the video, here's what we can glean so far: Form factor : The PSP Go has a 97mm (3.8-inch) wide screen (versus 109mm (4.3 inches) on all previous PSP models). It's said to be 43 per cent lighter ...

Palm's executive chairman is Jon Rubinstein, once head of hardware engineering at Apple. And it just so happens that the Palm Pre -- his currently gestating baby boy -- knows exactly how to sync with iTunes, and the code that tricks iTunes into thinking the phone is an iPod is built right into its firmware. No user hacks, no extra software needed. Apple won't be pleased. At the All Things Digital D7 conference this week, Rubinstein demonstrated the iTunes syncing ability on stage with the Wall Street Journal 's Walt Mossberg. Walt asked how he thought Apple would feel about Palm using iTunes, to which Rubinstein claimed Apple is "practically a monopolist" and that people should be able to use music they pay for in any way they like. Fair enough. They can do that easily, however, by dragging and dropping their DRM-free music from anywhere on their computer to any supported device. Palm doesn't need to use iTunes at all, and Rubinstein's claim, while admi...

The Guardian reports that O2 is dancing the happy dance after scoring the exclusive rights to the Palm Pre , fending off rivals such as Orange and T-Mobile in a wedding-bouquet-style catfight over the hotly anticipated mobile phone . No doubt O2 is hoping the Pre will help it keep the early adopters it won with its exclusive deal to push the the iPhone , which could soon be set free from its exclusivity chains in the UK and be available on other networks. The Pre could also tempt Apple-haters, who have hailed the Pre as their touchscreen saviour, to move over to the bubbly blue network. As a mixed crowd of iPhone lovers and loathers alike, we chatted about our pre-Pre anxiety in last week's CNET UK podcast . O2 wouldn't comment on the deal, calling it "rumour and speculation". What is it : Touchscreen webOS phone with slide-out keyboard What we think : It's not without its flaws, but, thanks to the solid webOS platform, the Pre is a worthy rival to the iPhone We...

Typical price : £274 What is it : Apple's updated, speed-focused smart phone What we think : With increased memory, improved battery life and speedier performance, it seems a worthy upgrade We like: The iPhone 3G S sports a new processor that should mean apps open more quickly than on previous models. It also now supports 7.2Mbps HSDPA for speedier Web browsing. Battery life seems to be an improvement on the iPhone 3G's. The resolution of the camera has been boosted to 3 megapixels, and it now has an autofocus feature, as well as video-recording capability. The voice-control feature lets you dial contacts, but also allows you to activate the iPod player by asking for a particular music track or artist. A digital compass has been added for souped-up location services We don't like: There's no doubt that the iPhone 3G S is an expensive smart phone. Because the jump from the iPhone 3G to the 3G S isn't quite as big as the jump from the first- to second-generation model...

Nokia for the first time has released their very first Touchscreen phone. Considering its their first touchscreen phone, how is it compared something like the new Samsung Tocco Ultra.  The 5800 has video, music and GPS features to get the heart racing, but these are offset by a disappointing touch experience. There's nothing outrageously wrong with the 5800, but we're sure Nokia has better touchscreens to come. The Samsung Tocco Ultra on the other hand is slim and attractive and boasts a stunning AMOLED touchscreen display, and also includes a traditional alphanumeric keypad for those sent into wild fits of rage by using soft keyboards. The user interface could be more intuitive, but the Tocco Ultra is packed with features -- an 8-megapixel camera, GPS and HSDPA, for example -- that make it a very appealing device. In this video review below, Andrew Lim of Cnet takes a look at the 5800, Nokia's first touchscreen phone Nokia 5800 Music Express And below is a video review of ...
