UK mobile phone operator O2, who has the exclusive contract to sell the Apple iPhone since it was launched in 2007, until recently, has announced that it has sold over two million iPhones in the UK. According to O2 their iPhone sales are still very strong, even though you can now buy an Apple iPhone in the UK from other mobile phone operators like Vodafone and Orange, and even Tesco, although the Tesco contract is actually an O2 one. O2 have come under criticism from iPhone owners because of their poor data service in certain areas of the UK, this is something I have experinced myself first hand as my iPhone is with O2. It will be interesting to see if O2 can retain its high iPhone sales over the next couple of years, and whether the other networks will be able to lure O2 customers away when new models of the Apple iPhone are released. via Tech Radar This is a post from Geeky Gadgets , who bring you the latest cool Gadgets

AMD have outed their latest video card, the ATI Radeon HD 5450, and while it’s packing DirectX 11 support it’s not really intended for the gamers.  Instead the fanless half-height card offers DisplayPort, HDMI and VGA connections, support for Eyefinity multi-monitor output and more for just $50. That means support for up to three displays simultaneously, as well as Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio bitstreaming.  In fact the HD 5450 seems almost tailor-made for an HTPC setup, even down to the frugal 20W power requirements. Over at Tom’s Hardware they’ve been putting the HD 5450 through its paces and, as expected, it’s “the least awe-inspiring Radeon HD 5000-series card”.

Samsung’s latest AMOLED smartphone has broken cover , the new SHW-M100S, and like the Google Nexus One it’s running Android 2.1.  The M100S has a 3.7-inch WVGA touchscreen, WiFi b/g/n, T-DMB TV tuner and a 5-megapixel camera with 720p HD video recording; it’s apparently set to arrive on South Korea’s SK Telecom network next month. Other specs include GPS and DivX playback, a 3.5mm headphone socket and – unfortunately – Samsung’s own TouchWiz UI.  They’ve also added a social networking app, though that’s not fully detailed, and the M100S will get access both to the regular Android Market and SK Telecom’s own T Store.

The 32nm dual-core Clarkdale processors that recently made their debut are about to pave the way for Intel’s next performance crown chaser, the six-core Gulftown . You might’ve known that already, but Intel’s decided to furnish us with the above slide detailing the particular differences between the two dies, with the most notable being the whopping 1.17 billion transistors that the new CPU will be composed of. The major attraction of Clarkdale chips lies in their power efficiency and competent integrated GPU , but the Gulftown focus will be firmly on the high end

One of the frustrations of UMID’s first-gen mbook M1 was the absence of a standard USB port; instead you had to remember to carry an awkward adapter dongle .  The company addressed that with the mbook M2 , but one owner of the original machine has taken matters into his own hands and added a USB port himself .

We had a brief play with MSI’s new Wind U160 netbook back at CES 2010 , and came away uncertain about what felt like more than a little flex in the keyboard.  Fingers-crossed that hasn’t panned out to the latest models, and the people to ask are over at NewGadgets.de; they’ve picked up a U160 and have promptly shot a video hands-on . Video unboxing/hands-on after the cut Best news is, this particular U160 – despite still being pre-production – is apparently higher quality than what they were showing off at CES.  It’s certainly possible that things could get tightened up even more by the time the netbook launches properly this March.

As you can see from the photos and the title, the Gun Comb is a comb, which is designed to look like a hand gun, maybe not the best idea to be honest and not something we would recommend using whilst you are out and about. The Gun Comb is from the guys over at 25togo Design , if you want one they are available for about $10, although if you get would it might be an idea to leave it at home the next time you go somewhere on a plane as you could end up getting arrested.

If you’re Clearwire or Sprint right now, the last thing you want to hear is one of the world’s major suppliers of wireless infrastructure badmouthing the very technology that underpins your next-gen network — so we imagine there’s some groaning in the hallways and boardrooms of the world’s WiMAX carriers today. Why? Alcatel-Lucent’s COO of its wireless business, Patrick Plas, has pulled no punches in a statement this week that the firm is “not putting a lot of effort into [WiMAX] any longer” after noticing that there’s “a clear direction taken by the industry towards LTE .” Of course, it doesn’t take an analyst to notice that Europe, Asia, and virtually every carrier in the Americas have all taken on a decidedly pro-LTE slant in the past couple years, and these guys are just following the money — which in turn makes it harder (and more expensive) for the handful of WiMAX proponents with deployed networks to build out and stay technologically current

Pico-projector company AAXA have outed their latest model , and the L1 carves a niche for itself by using LCoS laser technology rather than the more usual DLP.  The AAXA L1 is capable of projecting up to a 20-lumens 50-inch picture at 800 x 600 resolution, and thanks to the lasers it’s all focus-free: no frustrating focus wheel to twiddle, just point and go.  In fact it can even project clearly onto curved surfaces. There’s also an onboard media player, with support for pictures, video and still images, either stored on the 160MB of internal storage or on a USB drive; AAXA throw a 2GB stick in the box

Hey everybody, new ThinkPads ! Lenovo seems hellbent on crushing its reputation for pricey hardware — while presumably maintaining the related renown for rugged reliability — and today it’s snuck out a set of new i-appended variants of its flagship T series laptops . The T410i, T410si and T510i come equipped with the budget-friendly Core i3-330M CPU from Intel, which runs at 2.13GHz, alongside otherwise typical specs. Memory goes from 2GB to 8GB of DDR3, two megapixel webcams come as standard, and fingerprint sensors can be tacked on as well. Even more friendly to businesses on a shoestring is the option for Windows XP pre-installations on the T410i and T510i.
