9999 Curve Concept

15/06/2010 14:06 par slaytane

BlackBerry concepts are very rare in these parts, but we’re pleased to announce that we’ve finally found a pretty good looking design, that would suit RIM. Created by Abhay Vir, the BlackBerry 9999 Curve concept is shown below and it comes with a sexy form factor, based on the idea of “curve”, plus an interesting keypad.

The device also features a 5 megapixel camera at the back and the designer claims that the “soft shape” of the device is aesthetically pleasing. Right now, we’re wondering if the display on the handset is a touchscreen and if it is, we’re curious if it’s capacitive or resistive. Would you buy this product, if the BlackBerry design were real?

In case you’re a frequent visitor of our site, you must have noticed the Windows Mobile 8 interface concept, created by Remort1. This Esato board member showed us two of this ideas of the UI of the future OS, applied to a Sony Ericsson XPERIA-like device.

This time, we have a look at the media playback menu, complete with browsing, artwork and options.

Microsoft Courier Mystery Tablet is Right in Apple’s Face

04/06/2010 16:24 par slaytane

Well, what do you know? Microsoft’s done it again! While everyone’s fretting for Apple’s upcoming tablet, Microsoft seemingly readying its own bundle of joy and this time it’s not even an iPhone rival we’re talking about. Microsoft Courier is a mystery tablet that gets pictured below and detailed after the break.

Turns out that Courier is real, although I wouldn’t bet my house on the fact that this isn’t a mere concept, soon to be denied by Microsoft. It’s a tad wrong to call this device a tablet, since it’s more of a booklet, packing dual 7 inch screens, with multitouch support and allowing the user to write, flick and draw with a stylus and his fingers.

The touchscreens are connected via a hinge that incorporates an iPhone-like Home button. At the back you can spot a 3 megapixel camera, with 4x zoom and flash, plus the device is able to charge thanks to an inductive pad, like the Palm Touchstone. Keep in mind that the hinge of the booklet can be used as a “pocket” to hold items that need to be moved from one page to another.

So, what do you say? Real or a concept?

As if Windows Mobile 7 wasn’t cool enough to get shown on any new smartphone, here’s a mystery device showcasing the features of Microsoft’s upcoming operating system. We’re dealing with a screenshot of the navigational feature, plus a bit of the Home screen on what seems to be a futuristic and very slim Windows Mobile smartphone.

Full touch, speakers, huge memory… you know the drill. It this mockup realistic or more close to a concept?

Communication and Sharing Technologies in 2019, as Seen by Microsoft Office Labs

We’re speechless and stunned! Barely one year after being astonished by the Nokia Morph concept phone, Microsoft decided to give us a taste of its 2019 technologies. Microsoft Office Labs allowed the general public to check out their “2019″ montage and video, featuring people using next-gen means of communication, sharing content and interaction.

Here’s the futuristic bag of goodies:

The video got introduced on February 28, at the Wharton Business Technology Conference, revealing the future of personal health technologies, high tech education, animations, real time translations, Surface-like displays, transparent walls and screens, projecting devices and whatnot.

There’s even an electronic newspaper in the mix and, of course a flexible handset.

Windows Mobile Phone Concept Is Neat, Should Feature Android OS

04/06/2010 16:17 par slaytane

This is not the first time that David Turpin designs a Windows Mobile phone, and his previous attempt featured a similar look. However, what’s surprising is that hot QWERTY keypad, packed in such a slim body. This device could easily compete with the XPERIA X1 and T-Mobile G1, but only in case those flat keys offer some sort of feedback.

I cannot help but wonder how Android OS would look like on Turpin’s concept phone… What do you think?

Microsoft oPhone Concept

04/06/2010 16:16 par slaytane

Microsoft isn’t all about software, as it’s shy when it comes to announcing a Zune phone, but never too serious to get a laughter from its fans. The oPhone laughs in the face of the iPhone and it’s quite a hilarious device, as you can’t take it seriously, although some of the ideas and technologies it uses are quite nice.

This is a fold out variable device, that uses three different surfaces for input and a circular display. It runs Windows Mobile and Microsoft claims that once you open the handset, its three-wing shape will make it a perfect boomerang. One of its surfaces includes a full keyboard, another one includes a music player control and a wheel control plus a few buttons.

Okay, now back to Windows Mobile 7, Microsoft!

Zune Phone Concept

Many are still waiting for the Google Phone, not the Android one, but THE GPhone, while others are dreaming of a Xbox Phone and finally many are craving the Zune Phone. Well, we’ve got a concept to satisfy our tech hunger, the Zune Contact phone created by Adam Huffman.

It’s an incredibly thin device with a 5 megapixel camera, a touchscreen and a pretty crowded interface. Its internal memory is 32 GB and in case you’re wondering, that big white button is a thumb rest, as unbelievable as it may seem.

Microsoft Lucid Touch Concept, the Back Side of Multi Touch

04/06/2010 16:10 par slaytane

While CeBIT 2008 is in full bloom in Germany, Microsoft’s got an internal event of its own, the TechFest fair, an excellent opportunity for showing off new technologies and concepts like the Microsoft Lucid Touch. This prototype device can be controlled with the aid of the user’s fingers, which will “multi-touch” (is this a new verb?) the device from behind.

As you control this device, you’ll be able to still see your fingers, due to the pseudo-transparency technology. You’re not using a semitransparent handset, instead you’ll be seeing a image of your hands which creates such an illusion. Keep in mind that Lucid Touch supports multi-touch input, so you’ll be using all your fingers to play some fancy RTS on your tablet.

This great concept comes as a response to the people frustrated by small screens and thick fingers, getting in the way of the devices’ user friendliness.
