Cellphone sanitizer hits the market
As per the recent studies conducted by various research centers, claims that mobile phones are saturated in germs and can even spread the flu and other illnesses. To overcome this fear here comes Violight UV Cellphone to sanitize anything – from your Cellphone to iPods to even ear buds.
Since the time hand sanitizers have hit the market, people have had the urge to use them as frequently as they can. Fact is that no matter what our hands touch, we are bound to gather and spread germs everywhere.
With technology going all advanced with touch-screens and devices which operate solely on touch basis, it has been impossible to forget about the germs which these devices carry. Cell phones and smart phones are everything. They’re our maps, our pens, our paper, our portable lifelines. A touchscreen is practically a veritable septic tank of germs.
The latest innovation from Violight will solve this problem as well. Their newest hit, the Violight UV Cellphone will be available in the market for US$50 which would function to sanitize anything. The technology used consists of two ultraviolet lamps powered by three AA batteries which would mutate the DNA of the bacteria and other harmful microorganisms present on the device. This will prevent the bacteria, viruses and germs from replicating.
The technology is called UV sterilization and believe it or not it has been in the market for quite some time initially introduced to produce clean drinking water and Sonicare brushes.
Violight clinically proved that with this technology, 99.9% of germs can be eliminated in just minutes. All you need to do is to place your cell phone into the cradle, close the lid and turn it on. After three minutes your device is ready and disinfected. The Sanitizer is using the same UV light technology that is used in hospitals to decrease the number of strep, E. coli, salmonella, listeria, and H1N1 virus germs and other awful bacteria’s.

Nokia says N-series sales top 10 mln so far this year
The world’s largest cellphone maker Nokia unveiled a new all-in-one multimedia phone and a new slimmer model targeting U.S. consumers, at an event to showcase its multimedia devices on Tuesday.
Nokia said multimedia is the fastest growing mobile sector, adding that this year it has already sold more than 10 million handsets in its upscale N-series.
The new N95 model, the first Nokia phone with integrated GPS receiver, is expected to retail in volumes in the first quarter of 2007 for the price of about 550 euros ($700), excluding subsidies and taxes, Nokia said in a statement.
The N95 will be the Finnish firm’s first with a 5 megapixel camera, and it will also be sold with maps and location data for consumers in more than 100 countries.
Nokia also unveiled its new N75, a model slimmer than most of the more bulky N-series phones, which it will start selling from the fourth quarter in the United States and Latin America.
Nokia’s N-series phones have been intended to be a move towards more stylish and lighter models, but reviewers and critics say it is still some way from rival Samsung’s and Motorola’s thin models.
The N75 and N73 are 19 mm (about 3/4 inch) thick, compared with the RAZR from Motorola at 14 mm (about 1/2 inch).
Nokia, which sells more than one in three of all mobiles around the world, has increased its market share this year, but arch rival Motorola has reported even faster sales growth.
Nokia also unveiled music versions of its N70, N73 and N91 phones, with the N91 8GB music edition fitting 6,000 songs.
The Finnish mobile maker said it was working with 40 music industry players, such as David Bowie, to form a Web community

Nokia aims to sell 80 million music phones this year, outpacing sales of devices such as iPods from Apple.
