Well, we can think of at least one 13-year-old kid who’ll welcome this next bit of gadget news: it looks like Sony’s OLED Walkman is now on sale over at the Sony Style site. As previously guesstimated , the 16GB model is moving for a cool $299.99, and the 32GB model is priced at $399.99. Order today from Sony and it ships tomorrow, or order from Amazon and it ships on July 3rd. Either way, it’s time to start counting out your pennies.

When the Bluetooth headset first came out, it’s primary function was to simply make it a bit easier to take phone calls. The headset is actually worn on your ear, and when a call comes in, it rings right in your ear. All you have to do is push a button and take the call. It requires no hands, except to actually answer the call. You can easily walk around, drive or do anything you need to with your hands while still being able to focus completely on your phone call.
These days, it’s actually illegal in many areas to drive while on the phone, unless you have a headset. This is because it can be extremely dangerous to operate a car without the use of both of your hands. However, when you have a Bluetooth headset, you’ll be able to stay safe while driving – and avoid getting a ticket! Some headsets can even play mp3s or cancel out background noise, which makes them even more valuable. To find out more about these handy headsets, visit www.accessorygeeks.com. There you’ll be able to browse through some of the options and see what they’re all about.
If you’re one of the hapless folks out there still having trouble tracking down a new iPhone 3GS, Apple is making things a little bit easier on you with an online tool to check up on stock at Apple retail stores. There’s a full breakdown of color and capacity, which might seem like overkill to some, but given the fact that stores with stock in all four current models are a bit of an exception (outside of NYC, anyways), we’d have to say that this is just the sort of overkill we need.

We doubt the July 15 delivery date is set in stone, but UK residents itching to get a little Hero in their lives are now able to pre-order HTC’s latest for £429 ($708). That’s pretty much what we’d expect for an unlocked set, but Orange is planning to offer the Hero free on contract, so we’d be inclined to hang on just a teensy bit longer. Video after the break.

Bluetooth Headset Devices
It is essential to use some form of hands-free kit if answering or making cell phone calls while driving. Bluetooth headset devices offer a wireless and non-bulky solution which can be used everywhere – while driving, travelling on foot, in the office, and in other situations. A Bluetooth headset which has inbuilt noise cancellation and other useful features can offer crisp clarity while making it possible to use your hands for steering a vehicle or noting down memos.
Bluetooth Headset Devices for Active Types
There are various Bluetooth headset devices available for active types, which incorporate features such as water-resistance and can be used safely while you are working up a sweat. In addition to these, there are various other types of Bluetooth headsets, from devices which have interchangeable face plates for accessorizing purposes to headsets which have inbuilt speech recognition and are able to automatically adjust the frequency of the sound transmitted according to the level of noise in an environment.
“Verizon Wireless has launched the HTC Ozone, a QWERTY candybar smartphone that runs on Windows Mobile 6.1 and is based upon the HTC Snap. The Ozone features dual-connectivity to Verizon’s CDMA network and to GSM networks around the world. The device features 3G and WiFi data connectivity, a high-capacity 1500mAh battery, Bluetooth with A2DP, and more for a handsome price.”
Seems like everyone’s getting in on the Snap like device. Verizon is the latest renaming the Snap to Ozone. You can read the specs above. I really like the 1500mAh battery. That could go a long way. Dual connectivity sounds cool too. If you love Windows Mobile and want a Bold, Jack, or Treo like device, this seems like a good choice. So are any of you Verizon customers going to jump on board with this one?

Replacement Cell Phone Accessories
When your cell phone charger’s pin is accidentally bent it can prevent it from working properly, but you can easily purchase a replacement charger and other cell phone accessories online, such as replacement batteries. As cell phone batteries do have limited life spans, it is likely that after a lengthy period of time your battery’s lifespan will come to an end, but with a new replacement you may be able to continue using your device without having to spring for a new cell phone.
Cell Phone Accessories for Device Protection
Many newer cell phones have glossy cases which show scratches easily or have large screens which can easily be damaged during the course of everyday usage. Cell phone accessories for device protection can be purchased via a cell phone accessory supplier, from plastic and leather cases to adhesive screen covers which are made to fit various models exactly. By protecting your cell phone, you can prolong its sleek looks and also keep its value higher in case you should wish to sell it at a later stage.
The HTC Hero, just unveiled today in the UK, is the new hotness in the Android world. More than just the latest and greatest Android smartphone from HTC, the HTC Hero represents the most usable and feature-rich Android phone that we’ve ever had a chance to put hands on. But, don’t be mistaken, the real genius behind the HTC Hero is the new customized Android OS user-interface that HTC is calling the HTC “Sense UI.” Think of it like this - the Sense UI is to Android OS as theTouchFLO 3D UI is to Windows Mobile Pro OS. And, seeing as how the HTC TouchFLO 3D UI - especially the latest v2 iteration - is almost unarguably thebaddest UI overlay available for Windows Mobile, it makes sense (sorry, couldn’t resist) that the Sense UI rocks equally hard.
We first came to know the Sense UI as the custom “Rosie UI” that leaked alongside the HTC Heronot too long ago. We knew HTC was working on a custom user-interface for the Android OS, but we had no idea it would be so good. In fact, HTC’s Sense UI might be singly responsible for making the HTC Hero the first truly awesome Android phone to hit market.
The Sense UI takes the already impressive Android OS and customizes it with a widget-based interface that serves up at-a-glance information on multiple side-scrolling homescreen panes (think iPhone). The dedicated search feature trolls through your entire phone as well as online sources for the nuggets of information you seek. Your contacts’ information isn’t just served up from your on-board address book, they’re gathered from social networks like Facebook, Flickr, YouTube, and Twitter. And, with support for multi-touch inputs, the HTC Sense UI takes the Android platform head-to-head with the Palm (NSDQ: PALM) Pre’s WebOS and iPhone 3GS’s iPhone OS.
Add in the fact that the HTC Hero is packed to the gills with all kinds of high-tech smartphone goodies (g-sensors, 3G, GPS, WiFi, 5-megapixel camera, compass, etc. etc.), and you’ve got the makings of what could be the first true iPhone killer from the Android camp. Stefan covered the Hero’s launch in glorious detail here.
Still, even with all that hardware, the HTC Hero’s defining feature is the Sense UI.
Look for the HTC Sense UI in the HTC Hero when it launches this Summer. There’s also talk of Sense coming to Windows Mobile, in some form. In which case, we could see TouchFLO taking a bit of a backseat to the Sense UI. Mobile Burn went straight to the source and has confirmed that Sense UI is not headed to Windows Mobile.
Google (NSDQ: GOOG) owes HTC a “solid” for helping boost Android OS to the next level. You know, the level where even gadget-overloaded geeks like us would shell out hard-earned dough to own a Hero of our own.
