pressure_touch_nokia.jpgNokia files a lot of patents every year, but not many of them actually materialize into products. Still, product companies make sure that they patent their technology so that i can be commercially used later. This time Nokia has filed a patent for pressure sensitive 3-D multi touch screen for mobile devices.

But the question is: Would it make you want to sign on the dotted line?

Tmo News got its hands on an internal training sheet for Project Dark, which includes some of the pricing schemes as well as comparisons to the other major carriers. Is this for real? Well, considering tomorrow’s D-day, I wouldn’t be surprised. Also, many of these numbers have been revealed before, but having something Magenta-colored seems to somehow validate them a bit more.

Gotta love sneaky-looking high-fashion models conducting a covert operation around a shiny new piece of technology. This is Sony Ericsson’s new media campaign for its new Jalou cell phone by Dolce&Gabbana.
