Love World of Warcraft? I know plenty of my friends really do. I personally don’t play it for the sole reason that I know it’d be impossible to tear me away from it! Well, if you can’t seem to tear yourself away from it, WoW Player is for you.
View yours and your friends’ characters profiles for World of Warcraft right on your Windows Mobile Pocket PC device!
The Nokia N95, easily one of the best devices out on the market right now, is going to launch in the UK in 2 weeks. The device was not only the first to have a 5 MP camera but it also packs Dual ARM 9 264 MHz CPU hardware, EDGE, Wi-Fi, and Symbian OS 9.3.
Another great quality of the device, is that it supports N-Gage. N-Gage titles have brought the world of mobile gaming to a huge number of consumers that otherwise never played games. If gaming isn’t your thing, there are plenty of other reasons to get the phone. At 240 x 320 pixels, the video quality is really decent. Also,the web browsing has full HTML support, so it allows people to keep up-to-date on their favorite sites. Hope the folks in the UK are stoked about this.

IUGO has launched their latest game, Shaky Summit on the App Store. As with Toy Bot Diaries, IUGO created Shaky Summit exclusively for the iPhone and its unique controls. I got a chance to see this game at CTIA, and the 3D graphics, replayable levels and unique 2 player mode come together as an awesome casual games. Shaky Summit retails on the App Store for $4.99 US.
Because I used to live in South Korea, I know my way around Seoul. After a nice dinner with the folks from the conference, everyone wanted to head out. Problem was, it was only 10pm and things don’t really get started that early in this city. Usually people are still eating and drinking at that hour and since we already ate, this wasn’t really an option. I told some of the guys I knew a good bar and word traveled fast. Before I knew it, I was leading a group of 30 people to my favorite bar. It’s a foreigner bar so it was open and good to go.

One of my favorite speakers at the conference has been Mike Pearson who does corporate development for Google. During his speech he talked at length about the Google mentality and how it is incorporated into Android. He talked about how the Google founders, Larry Page and Sergey Brin, created Google from free, open source software, and how this should be the case for a mobile operating system.

I’m here at X Media Lab in the Digital Media City. The DMC, according to the Korea government “was born as a result of a plan by the Seoul Metropolitan Government to form a world-class IT & Media complex.”
One of the benefits of this IT district is amazing WiFi! Full and free WiFi everywhere in the DMC. This makes covering a conference really easy. Not even CTIA in San Francisco had this. Although X Media isn’t focused on mobile, I’m mostly here killing time until Mobile Content 2008.

If T-Mobile’s G1 is going to be a hit, it is going to have to cater to the power users. These are the prosumers who will be using a ton of data to fully unlock the potential of the phone. So far they haven’t done this. The fine print on the T-Mobile contract caps the “unlimited” 3G bandwidth transfer at 1GB per month. When you exceed the 1GB, your service will be downgraded to just 50 kbps. What a terrible turn of events for the phone that should revolutionize mobile content.

Glu’s Bonsai Blast, an all new action puzzle game, will be available only in the Android Market. This is a great addition to the list of games that are looking really sweet. The quality of games have been great so far and I’m expecting the Android Market to be a fierce competitor with the App Store.
The supply of phones is absolutely astounding in South Korea. On virtually every corner there is a phone shop. The shops open relatively early and stay open very late. Some of them are branded by the telecom and others are just general phone stores. While here, I went over to a place called Yongsan Electronics Market to find the coolest phones possible. It’s the largest electronics market in Asia with over 5000 stores.
