Cell phone clones have become quite popular these days. iPhone has been cloned by many manufacturers, including the whole of Nokia N-series and many others. Previously, CECT, a Chinese manufacturer, ripped off iPhone, and named it as iFone. This time, they are back with yet another rip off in the form of Nokia N96.
Surprisingly, the CECT N96 looks 99% the same as the original Nokia N96. But that’s only for the looks. When you go for the features and specifications, they still need to work a lot. Even the firmware has been tweaked to look just like Symbina v3, but it really is something of their own.
Specifications
- Tri-Band 900/1800/1900MHZz
- 2 megapixel camera
- Bluetooth stereo connectivity
- Dual 3D stereo speakers
- 3″ 262k color LCD display
- Video and audio playback
- 1GB microSD memory card slot

If you are looking for a multi-purpose USB hub, then this gadget is one of the best things available! It not only features a 4-port hub, but also keeps your cold drinks cold, and hot drinks hot with its built-in warmer/chiller. Now you can keep your favourite beverage hot or cold, no matter what the temperature is while you transfer data using the 4-port hub.

I have found a video that shows two new Sony Ericsson renderings. The names of these models is yet to be announced But they are quite similar to the forthcoming X1. I have no idea whether they are production versions or just prototypes, but they are very cool in looks. If they’ll be good in features, I might actually get one of these.

If you haven’t noticed, Gmail has rolled out new improvements today, to their Loading interface while signing in for Gmail. It now has a new loading screen with a loading bar that shows the progress of how much Gmail has been loaded and an option to load your Inbox in basic HTML.
Dial-up users or slow connection users can click the link Load Basic HTML while Gmail loads and it will open much faster than before. You won’t the usual Ajax-powered Gmail, but still, you can at least check your mails if you are in a hurry.

Yes, finally. After lots of petitions and blog posts, Facebook has finally rolled out an important feature that was needed by many. Facebook’s Private Messaging feature has been updated with a basic search functionality.
Now you can search your Facebook messages in Inbox through the newly added search functionality. Previously, there was no other way to find messages, other than going through the pages one by one. So users have thousands of messages in their Inbox, and finding old messages for them was a very difficult task. And most of the times, old messages became essentially unfindable.

First let me tell you what BlogBackupOnline really is. It is a free online service that backs up your blog daily, and stores all the data on their server. It doesn’t matter whether you use Blogger, WordPress, TypePad, Friendster, LiveJournal, Serendipity, Windows Live Space, Movable Type, Terapad, or Vox, it recognizes the blogging platform itself and starts collecting data in no time. Every member gets 50MB of disk space for their backup and restoring a blog’s backup was never this easy. You can add as many blogs as you want and anyone’s blog you want. Yes, that’s right! You can backup anyone’s blog (using their feeds), and restore it wherever you want. Still confused? Duh! Continue reading…
