QUITE STRANGE. T-Mobile is including another flury device like Samsung Pixon, although it will be renamed to the T929 Leica instead. the Pixon is going to T-Mo and it’s picking up a new name along the way. That’s because this phone doesn’t rely heavily on smartphone features or cool applications, per se, but rather on its giant display and terrific camera.
This move by T-Mobile could help them investing on its 3G network rollout as Samsung Pixon is also equipped with 3G that’ll be more than happy to enjoy T-Mobile’s fancy new network. so offering an 8 megapixel camera phone ain’t too shabby for starters.
The Sony Ericsson C905 is not the only 8-megapixel camera on the block, because the Samsung T929 Leica is rocking an 8MP shooter as well.

Opera mini mobile browser , an all time favorite non-smartphone mobile web browser has achieved one more milestone today. A new faster mobile web browser Opera Mini beta has been released. This browser run faster then before and offer some new an very unique features too.
The new Opera Mini beta boasts the return of the skinning feature and improved video performance. Perhaps more importantly, Opera has flipped the switch on a new server farm that should make for speedier mobile web browsing in the US and Asia.
Opera Mini manages to deliver a desktop-like web browsing experience on feature phones, with less processing power than their smartphone counterparts, by offloading the page-rendering process to proxy servers. Opera Mini sends all webpages through its server farms for off-handset processing. These servers render the page in full desktop-format and send along the resulting data to a mobile phone - with the user never being the wiser.
Until today, Opera’s proxy servers based in Norway, making round-trip times for webpage data a bit longer for US and Asian customers. Today, with the launch of the new server farm, Opera will look to serve fully-rendered webpages to its Opera Mini fleet with less latency and faster turnaround times.
“The number of people using Opera Mini worldwide proves that there is a
true revolution going on: people want to access all their favorite Web
sites on the mobile phone they have today,” says Jon von Tetzchner, CEO,
Opera. “We constantly focus on developing a faster and more personal
browsing experience. Opera Mini 4.2 beta is an update that takes mobile
Web browsing to the next level.”
