The Dark Side are apparently developing new X-Wing fighters and C-Wing fighters to take on the Rebellion:
(taken from GSMArena):
'Nokia Xseries and Cseries coming up, geeks hold breath
It was all about four-digit model numbers with Nokia in the beginning. Then N-Gage stepped in, with the Nseries and the Eseries following shortly after. Now two more letters are joining the party - Nokia has registered the Cseries and Xseries trademarks.
Both patents are quite general and cover phones, smartphones, accessories and replacement parts, which doesn't really tell us much about the devices that will inevitably be announced.
Usually Nokia separates its phones in four categories like so:
• Achieve - those are the Eseries
• Explore - the Nseries
• Live - fashion phones for people with active lifestyles
• Connect - easy to use, but not basic, good looking phone; emphasis on ways to connect to others
Now, here's what we're thinking: two categories that are don't yet have a series of their own and two new letters. Simple enough, but here's the tougher question - which is which?
C for example could stand for "classic", and classic phones more or less fit the description of the Connect category. There are other words that start with C of course but they are less likely.
"Computer" is another of those words and we do now that Nokia and Intel are cooking something up. Then again, they call the N97 a "mini multimedia computer" and the Maemo tablets seem to be part of the Nseries (e.g. N800). "Camera" also springs to mind but that too is Nseries territory.
That leaves Xseries for the Live category. Now, X could mean XpressMusic - those don't really fit the bill for a fashion phone but "active lifestyles" is pretty accurate.
Prism and Supernova phones are the more trendy type. The few L'Amour phones are a good match too, as are the 8-series phones - the Sirocco, Luna and the Artes. This we think is reasonable guess of what constitutes a "Live" phone and an Xseries phone too, if our wild guess turns out right.
There's always the possibility that the two new series wouldn't actually to fit into the current categories. One of them might just be here, because Nokia is running out of numbers in the Nseries as the three digit Nseries models is reserved for the Maemo tablets.'

@ama.
Has somebody actually made electric bikes now? I heard ktm was busy making one. Im not sure about it. Unless the put some speakers on it to play back the engine sound. Lol. I love the sound of the 4stroke engine. And also they gotta get the acceleration ratios right. If it can get the bottom end and top end of a normal engine then ill welcome the easily.

those are some crazy specs, 160bhp on 170kg weight?

madness i tell you! Lol! The only normal car maker with a decent power to weight is BMW, I think the 135i, Mini John Cooper Works, and the M3 have a power to weight worth boasting about lol.

Ye,thanx to the amazing hardware in it, if its one thing Apple has realy been brilliant at is keeping up and fitting the best and most up to date CPU/GPUs, the iPhone3GS is capable of playing 720p HD videos,its the same reason why i like the Palm PRE so much.
HAPPY 23K POSTS SAMD!!

@Hintza: Absolutely loved Star Trek.

Question I have though, has anyone actually watched a full length movie on their phone? I certainly wouldn't be able to. Videos are cool but watching a movie for 90 mins- that's a stretch.
