Triple SIM mobile phone

Introducing, a very rare Triple SIM handset! Ok I'm not sure if this is the first one but this one's got to be rare! The unnamed handset from UAE based manufacturer QiiQ can devour three SIMs at one go. Thats correct, this one can hold three separate SIM cards if you found dual slots insufficient. Well, while some might think this is more if an overkill, there seems to be a sizable amount of people who would love to have three numbers instead of having to lug around three different phones.

The catch is that at a time, only two lines will be active. As for the spec sheet, this might not sound impressive. The phone is enabled with (900/1800/1900) and dual (900/1800) GSM connectivity, a 2 megapixel camera, 2.4 QVGA display (2.6 touch panel) and a rather huge 2000 mAh battery.

Apple iBangle

Apple Design new concept design for an Apple mp3 player. It is called the iBangle and it is unique as well as ground breaking. It’s no screen and it has some other really cool features.

You see that blue inner band? Push a tiny button on the side and it fills with air, expanding to fit snugly around your wrist.

Apple iBangle’s a multi-touch track pad for easy navigation, and the audio finds its way to your ears via a couple of wireless earbuds. Alas, there’s no screen, but designer Gopinath Prasana figures you can navigate just fine with an audio-oriented navigation system.

Ear buds with the annoying cords won’t be found here, as the audio is transmitted via wireless ear buds. There’s a multi-touch track pad for easy navigation. It also has a few additional buttons for music control. Although the iBangle doesn’t have a screen, designer Gopinath Prasana figures you can navigate just fine with it’s audio-oriented navigation system.

Alaska Airlines offering inflight Wi-Fi

Alaska Airlines is adding to the roster of airlines that offer satellite-based Wi-Fi service. The service will have a 60-day free trial period on flights between San Jose, CA and Seattle with plans to expand to other flights. Does anyone else think that's an odd choice of cities to start with? I'd be pissed if I frequently flew to Anchorage.

The Boeing 737-700 jets will have web browsing, online music, email, IM, and more. Plus, the Inflight splash page will have quick links to news, music, shopping and services directly applicable to Alaska Air. After the free trial, the airline will determine how much to charge for the service based on customer feedback. Tell them to keep it cheap.

Let's just pray that having this type of connectivity silences all discussion about allowing cell phones on flights. Hit the Continue link to see the service in action.
