Nokia N78 now shipping, retail at $599.99

The N78 runs the latest version of Nokia's S60 user interface, 3rd Edition Feature Pack 2, and makes use of a novel d-pad controller that also works as a scroll-wheel - without actually turning.
The d-pad on the N78, which feels just like any other ring-type d-pad, is actually touch sensitive along its silver rim. Moving your finger around the perimeter of the d-pad causes the device to scroll. This functionality works in most parts of the phone, like the gallery and menu option lists. The N78 might not be a huge update of the N73 it replaces, but it does offer a newly updated user experience and some cool bonus features like the scrolling d-pad.

A new bar-style phone from Motorola has cleared the FCC's approval process. The EM30 is very similar to the MOTOROKR E8, but it loses the omega wheel navigation scroll bar and replaces it with a standard D-pad. Similar to the E8, it has the morphing keypad, which changes depending on which application is being used. Other things confirmed by the FCC documents and accompanying photos are the GSM/EDGE radios, stereo Bluetooth, full 3.5mm headset jack, microSD slot, large internal memory, as well as Motorola's Crystal Talk technology. No carrier branding was seen on the EM30, but it could work on most GSM/EDGE networks.

Sony Ericsson G702 Slips Past FCC

Documents seen on the FCC site reveal a new mid-range bar phone from Sony Ericsson, the G702. While it is similar in basic appearance to the G502 and C702, it has a different feature set. The FCC confirms that is has GSM/EDGE 850/1900 as well as Bluetooth radios. There is a 3.2 megapixel camera, M2 memory slot, and roller bar for navigating the screen. The G702 also comes with a red stylus, suggesting that it will be a touch screen device. The draft user manual also references a touch UI. Considering all these pieces of information, it is likely that the G702 will be a UIQ-based device, though that is not confirmed by the documents. The user manual also references 3G, Wi-Fi, and GPS, but the FCC filings do not confirm those features, either.
