Well, our DPA was correct. After informing GameOPS of the new Gold and Rose Red Nintendo DS Colors 2 weeks ago, Nintendo officially announced the new Nintendo DS Lite bundles.

These bundles are limited so no one knows how long they'll be around. Must get my hands on those gold DS. *drools*

Three cellphones pitted against each other to know who among them is the best snapper on their category. Just a reminder guys, these are not the "cream of the crop" line, but the entry level line of models. No Carl Zeiss nor Cybershot here on this review. Just wanted to compare these three fine cellphones against each other and nothing else. Now let's begin:

Nokia 6280

Nokia is the dominant brand here in the Philippines and their 2 megapixel camphone is no pushover. The orientation of 6280's camera is similar to a digital camera. You hold the phone horizontally, press the capture button and viola! Instant shots!. You can choose from high, normal or basic image quality. It has a night mode feature, zoom up to 10x (interpolated),can manipulate the white balance and add some effects. Amongst the three, 6280's flash is the best, mimicking the real flash of a digicam.You can store the pictures on a memory (6280 can support up to 2gb of miniSD card)

Pros: Point-and-shoot interface

Cons: Very slow rasterization

Motorola RAZR V3x

Motorola struck gold with their RAZR series and V3x is not an exception. V3x main asset is its very fast startup time and rasterization of pictures, best when you're about to capture that best moment. You won't miss a thing! Also, great for discreetly capturing pictures of beautiful women (boso shots anyone?). Has a 4x digital zoom and you can change the lighting condition and exposures. A light that acts as a flash and you can store pictures in a mircoSD card up to 1gb.

Pros: Fast camera operation

Cons: Weak on poor lighting conditions

Sony Ericsson K750i

The oldest among the three, K750i can prove that quality can stand the test of time. The camera phone which was the predecessor of K800i, Sony Ericsson's Cybershot phone, packs some solid features. K750i's main advantage is its autofocus feature. SE's K line of models main weapon is their camera and K750i is one good example. Like the 6280, you use K750i like a real digital camera, horizontal and all. It's resolution is like a .2 higher than the other 2 (1632x1224).Packs a lot of features like burst mode, panorama mode, frames mode, macro mode, night mode and white balance...Just like a real digital camera. You can save pictures on a memory stick pro duo that supports up to 4gb!!

Pros: Digital camera features

Cons: Autofocus sometimes ruin the shot

Overall: The Sony Ericsson K750i is the winner in terms of image quality and functionality.
