    For those of you who just can’t get enough portable storage [me too], you’ll be delighted to see that Kingston has launched a 16GB SD Card.
    The 16GB Class 4 SDHC Flash memory card joins the 4GB and 8GB versions and will cost around £113 plus VAT. Not cheap though, despite being the only storage card you will probably ever need – well, at least until next year. After all, you can get an Integral 16GB Class 4 card for £54 on Amazon while the Transcend 16GB Class 6 SDHC card with reader comes in at £56 here.
    “Higher resolution digital cameras and increasingly popular HD video camcorders require high capacity memory cards with faster data transfer rates (DTRs) to maximise overall performance of the recording device,” said Kirsty Miller, European Flash Product Marketing Manager, Kingston Technology. “Our new 16GB Class 4 memory card answers the performance needs.”
    According to Kingston, the 16GB card can hold more than 7,500 images with a 6MP camera and more than 4 hours of HD video (using 6Mbps HD Extended recording). Beats my old 1GB card any day.-Martin Lynch

    Dolby, the well known standard in surround sound, has decided to shrink its expertise and cram it into mobile phones. At this week’s 2008 Mobile World Congress, the company unveiled Dolby Mobile, a new audio processing technology platform that promises “rich, vibrant surround sound to music, movies, and television programmes on mobile phones and portable media players”. Considering Dolby’s pedigree, this could be a real audio performance jump for mobile entertainment.
    Dolby also showed off aacPlus, a high-quality, efficient audio compression format designed for download, streaming, and broadcast apps on mobiles.
    "Entertainment can sound better on mobile phones and portable media players," said Francois Modarresse, Vice President of Marketing, Dolby Laboratories. "We developed Dolby Mobile to help create products that stir the senses and excite people's imaginations so the industry can deliver on the promise of mobile entertainment."
    Great, so who’s using it then? The snag, for now, is that the first two phones using Dolby Mobile are from Sharp and NTT DoCoMo and are available in Japan only. What's new there then?
    Still, the company has also inked deals with Symbian, Texas Instruments and ARM, so it’s just a matter of time.
    Dolby Mobile has also been integrated with the new RMI Alchemy processor used in portable players from the likes of iRiver and Cowon so keep a sharp lookout for some of the newer PMPs. -Martin Lynch

    NOKIA 7380
    This is the Nokia 7380, it’s made of metal, mirror and leather, and is on sale through Neiman Marcus for $649. It’s got a 2-megapixel camera with flash, FM radio, MP3 player and video streaming. Works on GSM 900/1800/1900 networks. 7380closeup.jpg 7380 Phone [Product Page]
    Looks like there’s a new fashion phone on the horizon. No more info on this, but it looks a little thinner than the 7280 and appears to have a camera, MP3 player, AM/FM tuner, and contains a sliver of lip gloss for the beautiful people to stay beautiful with.
