Alcatel reveals the "world's slimmest smartphone"

TCL Communication, the company behind Alcatel One Touch mobile phones, has announced the Android-powered One Touch Idol Ultra at this year’s CES consumer electronics show.

Alcatel One Touch Idol Ultra

It’s just 6.45mm deep at its narrowest point yet offers a 4.7-inch HD AMOLED display, an 8 megapixel camera and a 1.2GHz dual-core processor - and is protected from water damage by P2i's liquid repellent nano-coating technology.

In addition the company has introduced the One Touch Scribe HD, which includes a 5-inch screen and uses the new MediaTek MT6589 quad-core chip.

Alain Lejeune , Head of Research and Development for Alcatel One Touch, said “The ONE TOUCH Idol device series represents a breakthrough in technology. We’ve pushed the barriers on design, resulting in devices that offer the perfect balance between ultra-slim form factor, large display, outstanding performance, and rich user experience, while keeping the devices affordably priced to consumers.”

Neither device currently has a UK release date.

Orange T: what should the merged company do next?

James Rosewell writes:

The merger of T-Mobile and Orange on 1st April 2010 is one of the most significant events in the evolution of the UK mobile industry since the original creation of Orange and 1-2-1 in the 90s. From now on the UK will have 4 mobile networks, and one of those networks will have ~35% of the market. A 35% market share comes with a lot of potential. Not only can standards be influenced in a way previously unimaginable in the UK, but economies of scale can be translated into profits.

One trade show too far!

Iain Graham writes:

This is a true story. It may not be a particularly relevant story - but it is a true story.

I think I have just realised that I have to be serious about my new career as a Grumpy Old Man (GOM) and come to terms with the fact that it is not new, just a natural progression from so many years as a Grumpy Young Man (GYM)!

The mobile web and your personal information

James Rosewell writes:

The mobile techie community has known about mobile networks and indeed some handsets providing unique information about mobile devices and customers for a long time. Collin Mulliner, a graduate student at the Technische Universitat Berlin, has recently bought the issue to the attention of the public during a talk at the CanSecWest conference in Vancouver.
