Droid 4 gets hands-on treatment, but it's simply a dummy unit
The folks over at TechnoBuffalo have just come across a rather interesting specimen -- it's a dummy unit of the forthcoming Droid 4 from Motorola. While its rumored release date has come and gone, non-functional models such as this are commonly offered to consumers in a retail setting to poke and prod to their heart's content. Nonetheless, the hands-on offers a few interesting details, such as a soft touch backside and insight into the redesigned keyboard, which is described as "the best one yet on a Droid handset."

Nokia E65 all gussied up in black and brown
We said it before and we'll say it again, we would like our phones to work and this incessant teasing is beginning to wear our patience. Another Nokia E65 has appeared on eBay and there isn't a question about it being fake, however what is interesting is the color combination we are seeing. Finland's finest decided to put out the phone in a matte black and a textured brown color. We're becoming quite partial to the new brown color we see, now only if we could get our hands on it.[Via Ring Nokia]
