Sure, this could just be a keepin' it real fake, but we've got a hunch these pics of an upcoming Nokia XpressMusic 5900 are the real deal -- it's just too understated to be shanzai. Compared to the 5800, the updated handsets are said to feature a slightly larger 3.5-inch display, a five megapixel camera, and more or less the same build of S60 5th edition, all in a slightly thinner case. That's all we know for now, but we're told we'll find out more soon -- keep it locked.

The Palm Eos has a 2.63-inch capacitive touchscreen display with a resolution of 320 x 400 pixels, 4GB of storage, and a GPS receiver. The final touches on the specs sheet include a 2 megapixel fixed focus camera with a flash, stereo Bluetooth (A2DP) and a microUSB port.
The Palm Eos should be announced for AT&T in the US at a price of 350 US dollars before any rebates. And since perhaps we didn't make ourselves clear up until now, the Eos is still a rumored device - though all the information seems rock solid.

Another interesting 5800-related piece of news today is that the phone will launch with Nokia's Comes With Music service in Brazil. During the first month after the launch, it will be available only through Brazilian operator TIM.
There's heavy accent placed on Brazilian artists with several domestic labels signed up to deliver content. The phone will be offered for 399 Brazil reais (181 US dollars) with an unlimited data plan. Some promotion-related perks offered by TIM include two months of free download of content and free access to the Internet and email.

The G1 has been the recipient of T-Mobile's largest ad campaign for a phone, and it also has the benefit of being one of the first handsets capable of utilizing T-Mobile's 3G network. Rivals like AT&T (NYSE: T), Sprint Nextel (NYSE: S), and Verizon (NYSE: VZ) Wireless have a large lead in 3G deployment, but the fourth-largest U.S. carrier is quickly rolling out its mobile broadband network.
Companies like Samsung, Motorola (NYSE: MOT), and Sony (NYSE: SNE) Ericsson are considering bringing Android-powered smartphones to the market, and the sales success of the G1 could spur other manufacturers to take a closer look at the Google-backed mobile operating system.
While the G1 has been successful, it has not been as popular as some of it smartphone rivals. Verizon's BlackBerry Storm launched with multiple software bugs that led to mixed reviews, but it sold 1 million units in about three months. Apple's iPhone 3G sold 1 million units worldwide in its launch weekend and likely took about a month to sell 1 million units in the United States.

Apple (AAPL) blew out expectations for March quarter sales and earnings. The iPhone was especially strong. But Apple's iPod touch -- its most expensive iPod -- is also crushing it, and that's a big reason that Apple will top 1 billion iPhone/iPod touch app downloads in the next day or two.
Apple sold about 3 million iPod touches last quarter. Compared to 3.8 million iPhones shipped, that is pretty excellent.
How'd we get that number? During today's earnings call, Apple revealed that it's sold 37 million iPhones and iPod touches to date. But separately, it said it has sold more than 21 million iPhones to date. Last month, Apple said it had sold about 13 million iPod touches through the end of last December. So that's about 3 million from January through March.
This -- combined with the success that PC makers like Acer are having selling cheap "netbook" PCs -- tells us one thing: That Apple could probably be successful selling a larger "iPod touch HD" later this year that fits somewhere between the iPod and the MacBook.
