Sony Ericsson has decided to come out with another color for their W580i.  If you are unfamiliar with the Walkman, back in January they managed to get a pink style and in March a dark green.

Now it comes in red as well, although I wish they’d gone with a bolder red as opposed to this more orange version of red.  The phone unfortunately has EDGE speeds and is being sold for $99.

Motorola announced the release of their two new Linux powered smartphones. The Motoming A1600 and Motoming A1800, are two powerful business devices with, GPS, touchscreen and a handful of other features.

The Motorola Ming A1600 has a 2.4-inch 262K color TFT display with a QVGA resolution. It is a touchscreen and there is also a stylus to help you navigate around. The MING semi-transparent plastic active cover protects the display and aids in call management.

A Motorola MING A1600 runs on the Linux OS, much like the predecessor MING A1200. The A1600 has quad-band GSM/GPRS/EDGE support but no 3G functionality. There is a 3-megapixal camera with continuous autofocus. A really unique feature is the business card scanner that also allows you to photograph a sign or text and have it translated by the on-board dictionary.

The Motorola Ming A1600 also has a microSD card slot (up to 4GB), Bluetooth capability, a microUSB port, and a stereo FM radio. This phone comes in at 98.9×53.5x 19.6 mm and weighs 128g, so it isn’t one of the most compact phones out there.The Motorola Ming A1800 is like the twin of the A1600 only adding a few more features like the two radios and the ability to hook up to both GSM and CDMA networks.
