Best of 2005 According to WIRED
Was doing some Digging yesterday and found WIRED.com’s listing of the best of 2005. Two of the more interesting lists are 2005 Best Tech Moments and 2005’s Sexiest Geeks which, unfortunately do not include any of the m|ph editors.
Entries to note include the $100.00 Negroponte laptop and the up-top-date blogging of the Katrina disaster. How […]
MERRY CHRISTMAS!
On behalf of the editors of m|ph and the staff of HIP, I’d like to greet all of our readers a VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS!
Stay mobile!
P.S. - Jason and Howard aren’t in this picture because they got lost in the sea of gadgets during Mobile Pilipinas 2005.
Mobile1 website discovered!
Let’s just say a little bird told me on the way home.
Point your browsers to the new Mobile1 Website. Done in WordPress, just the way us bloggers like it. From how it looks, it seems Mobile1 is taking the blog approach to promoting its products.
And you know what? It works! (Just look at us, […]
Nokia 6111: For the ladies
UPDATE: The Nokia 6111 is pegged with a suggested retail price of P17,800.00
It might be a case of mistaken identity, but the Nokia 6111 sure does resemble a certain Samsung slider phone we’ve all come to love. Nonetheless, when we received this tiny wonder in a huge brown envelope the other day, I immediately told […]
Some tips for buying phones
In my experience of reviewing phones there are several questions I would have wanted to ask but forgot, due to the excitement of tinkering with the demo unit in front of the sales guy. The great thing about reviewing phones is that I get to take a more in depth road test which usually lasts […]
Podcasting: Channel Philippines!
ot! I just love good news. It’s news like this that makes me proud to be Pinoy. You see, I just came from an event of monumental proportions - the launch of the Philippine Podcasting Network. Since you all read our mag, you must already know that podcasting is the newest medium of broadcasting that empowers anybody to have a voice over the airwaves.

Sony-BMG and its woeful XCP
Some time ago, Sony issued a controversial memo announcing that no more than 20 CD titles have been released containing what was called an XCP protection software that was similar to Microsoft’s DRM technology. As it turns out, there’s more to it than meets the eye.
XCP is a rootkit-style software that installs itself deep into […]
Nokia N90 versus Sony Ericsson W800i
I know you’ve all been wondering about this so we decided to do a comparison between the 2.0 MP cameras of the Carl Zeiss equipped Nokia N90 and the Sony Ericsson W800i (same as the K750’s camera). At first glance the N90 looks like a clear winner because of its swivel lenss and powerful […]
The T5 and TX have the same price
Zoiks! Can my eyes believe this?! The T5 and TX now have the same SRP of P18,900.00. The main difference is that the T5 has less memory while the TX has WiFi. If you’re after pure aesthetics, the TX has a more corporate feel with its bluish-black casing as compared to the T5’s plain brownie […]
