looks like a useful feature though. put the phone with display down and the phone goes into vibration mode. can come handy definitely.

Has been extremely useful to me, particularly in meetings, when I can just flip the phone (it has to be flipped to the opposite side, so if the phone is already face down, you need to put it face up), and it is so much faster. I also have my small triumphs when folks with 'smart' phones like the i* or A* 'wish' they could do something similar. It has other advantages too like snoozing an alarm easily 😛
 
Motorola SMARTACTIONS can probably do something similar based on user location and time. Of course, it would not work with irregular events like office meetings etc. If GPS was accurate indoors you could probably set the device to go silent as soon as you enter the conference room in an office 😛
 
Apple has 3G video calling with non iOS devices (not through facetime)?
I had read somewhere that iOS6 would have 3G Video calling feature included, but Android and WP need 3rd party apps for 3G Video calling (I cant find that link now). But if it meant 3G Video call over Facetime which uses data network then its cheating 🙁

In Samsung Omnia W, Samsung has provided app for 3G Video calling (not over data like Tango Video Call), but its not native feature of Windows Phone I guess. My colleague has Android ICS phone with front camera but he cant make 3G Video call.
 
ios6 support facetime on cellular connection. facetime works only with ios and os x devices. there is no generic video calling app on it.

Super excited! Now if only someone could tell me what differentiates the two models apart from internal storage...
 
wireless charging as standard? that would surprise me. they said the same about Galaxy s iii. but turned out it was an accessory combo that i believe is still not on sale?yey. Nokia doing a featurephone with smartphones. interchangeable plastic covers. /s
 
and it would be real sad if they start using pureview branding for phones with 8mp sensors. i mean fine you have improved technology and shit like that. but keep pureview branding for phones with more powerful sensors. i wonder how soon we would have to thicker phones if better quality cameras becomes a popular component of the smartphone because of this new phenomenon. i mean megapixels are fine... everyone knows how shitty phones actually are from phone cameras. if having an few extra mm on my phone lets me have a bigger battery and a much better camera, why not?
