Oh yes you can now see the awesome new Apple iPhone 2009 screenshots, by following this link you will get to see screenshots of the digital compass, auto-focus camera, CPU activity log, user-selectable focus reticle and much more.
The all new iPhone 2009 that is believed to be launching July 17th is very much talked about and these new spy shots should excite you some more, this is obviously all part of the new iPhone OS 3.0 software.
We can expect to see a much more improved iPhone and of course operating system, could there really be a new earpiece/speaker design coming to the new unreleased iPhone? We cannot see these spy shots being fakes but then the world is a clever place, leaks are leaks at the end of the day so we will sit back relax and then see what happens on launch day.

Sprint is now promoting their network via a new advertising campaign states clickz.com and there is now a screensaver to download promoting the Sprint ?Now Network? ad campaign.
However apparently the screensaver is no ordinary screensaver, as group account director at Goodby, Silverstein & Partners, who created the ad campaign for Sprint, Rob Smith says the screensaver drags data from social networks.
Apparently the user can customise the screensaver with widgets and add their name for YouTube, Flickr and Twitter content to the screensaver whereby they will receive personal feeds, tweets, videos and photos and the like.

Fancy purchasing an unlocked Palm Pre Smartphone? Apparently according to unlockedfones they have the Palm Pre on offer unlocked for $489.99.
They list the Palm Pre a coming in June 2009 along with all the specifications that we already know and states Touchstone charging dock compliant, but doesn?t state you get the Touchstone dock with it.
The one thing I can?t seem to work out with this unlocked Palm Pre for $489.99 is the image they use as it is clearly an Palm Treo and not the Palm Pre which is kind of strange.

People love things when it has something to do with ?Leaked? and that is what has been found online, the all new software has been found, say hello to BlackBerry 8900 Curve OS 4.6.1.250.
Love what CrackBerry is saying ?Break out your USB cables and fire up desktop manager?, the all new leaked OS 4.6.1.250 is now downloadable from here but there is a disclaimer so please read it.
The OS Disclaimer which is not official says ?Please Read: Keep in mind this is NOT an official release and as such is not supported by RIM or your Carrier. If you choose to install, do so at your own risk and only if you’re comfortable in the process of upgrading and downgrading your device software. It is quite normal during operating system development for certain features to be crippled or disabled while others are tested, and these beta builds often reflect that. They are not always better. Depending on your BlackBerry comfort level, it may be best for you to wait for community feedback on a build before deciding to download and install for yourself or simply wait for the next official release. If you require support, you will find it in our CrackBerry forums via our extremely knowledgeable community base – do not contact your carrier or RIM for Beta OS technical support (their first course of action will be to advise you to downgrade to a supported OS). Follow the links below for more information and instructions.

Sony Ericsson has unveiled the Satio, Aino and Yari smartphones, the Satio being the new name for the Sony Ericsson Idou. However, according to an article on Cnet, the Sony Ericsson Aino could be a possible PSP phone.
The Sony Ericsson Aino syncs with the users PC over 3G or WiFi, but the thing that rocks is that the Sony Ericsson Anio can wirelessly connect to a PS3 from just about anywhere. The user can access music, films, TV shows on their PSM via the Aino.
Unfortunately though the Sony Ericsson Aino isn?t a real PSP phone as it is unable to actually play games, but it will allow the user to turn the PS3 on and off.

The word from precentral is that the Palm Eos may be coming in the 2nd half of 2009 to AT&T; this is based on a slide posted on engadget mobile.
Specs and details are basically the same as we have already heard with the exception of what looks to be a Qualcomm MSM7225 processor being used in the Palm Eos rather than the TI OMAP in the Palm Pre.
Which no doubt places the Palm Eos as a Centro cousin to the Palm Pre, but the slide does mention Palm System Software which may mean the Palm Eos may sport webOS.

The latest rumour concerning the Palm Pre smartphone comes via palmgoon, and is that Sprint is dropping the mail in rebate on the Palm Pre.
People don?t really like the hassle of the mail in rebate, and no doubt many will opt for getting their Palm Pre via Best Buy or RadioShack, but now apparently Sprint is thinking about doing away with the mail in and going with an instant rebate.
Although Sprint store apparently have already been stocked with the Palm Pre documentation that do confirm a mail in rebate on the Pre, so we will have to wait and see if this pans out or not.
