Huawei's G7000 could be an Android phone, but isn't
Like this phone? Well, don't get too used to it, because we're not really seeing it launching properly outside of China. It happens to be the descriptively-named G7000 from Huawei featuring EDGE on both 850 and 1900 -- probably a quadband device, if we had to guess -- and, as you can probably gather from the pictures, it's got a full touchscreen. The design lends us to believe it could be rocking Android underneath that pretty face, but a quick glance through the manual suggests that it's nothing more than a proprietary OS destined for the same segment of the market clogged by countless modern feature phones. If you change your mind on the platform, though, Huawei, do let us know, okay?
HP to debut bumper crop of new Pavilions and Presarios
HP has a whole lotta' new laptops to launch, possibly at a press conference this Tuesday if Notebook Italia is on the money. The designations are a real mouthful, so brace yourself: in all, we could be looking at Pavilions numbered dv2600, d6600, dv9600, and tx1300, and new HP G7000 and HP G6000's also coming in the form of Compaq Presario F700 and F500 models. There are a crazy amount of specs here, so it's probably safe to say that there is a machine to suit your requirements. Screen sizes range from 12.1 inch with the tx1300 up to 17 inches with the dv9600, CPUs range from 1.6GHz Core Duos and 1.7GHz Athlons up to 2.2GHz Core 2 Duos and ... well, you get the point. Most notably, the new dv models include HDMI among their image output ports, with the dv2600 featuring some kind of fancy new print on the outer casing (pictured above).
