No iPhone nano at MacWorld

Review: RadTech Omnicleanz
Have you ever tried to clean your iPhone's screen ? Did you know by using Soapy water it leaves residue, water is bad for electronics and Alcohol leaves streak marks. So what type of solution should you use? I recently got a bottle of Omnicleanz by RadTech it is wonderful. I sprayed some OmniCleanz on my iPhone screen, and began wiping it down with the included Opex cloth and the result was amazing! I have never seen my screen so clean and with out any fingerprints and streak marks.
OmniCleanz is without a doubt the best multi-purpose shiny thing cleaning solution I have ever used.

More hints of a Nano iPhone ?
iPhone case manufacturer XSKN has added a section on their site for the "iPhone Nano". This may suggest that the rumoured "iPhone Nano" is true.
Rumor: iPhone Nano case design leaked
iDealsChina publishes information and renderings of what it claims to be an "iPhone nano" case.
Because silicone cases are skin tight it is a good way to judge what the new Nano iPhone is going to look like.
According to IdealsChina “It is the same height as the just release Nano but wider and thicker and with the same iPhone 3G contours. It has 3 sensors, camera, mirror screen but no 3G. Production will start on the 20th with 60,000 to 80,000/day pieces coming off the assembly line. Steve Jobs will be announcing it during the January MacWorld Show and you will find it in the stores shortly afterwards.”
Copy and Paste for the iPhone (sort of)
Someone has conceived a way to copy and paste text from Safari to Mail, and between web pages.
And it doesn't require any software installation and so it is legal.
It works by a clever combination of javascript bookmarks and web services.
According to Jed Schmidt, creator of Pastebud, they have been testing it for about a week and they are now "putting the finishing touches on the web site before launch".
Outputting iPhone Apps to a TV
Ars Technica had reported that the latest iPhone 2.2 SDK included an new undocumented framework that allows iPhone/iPod touch applications to output to a television rather than to the native screen.
The Blackberry touch screen is as hard as the iphone's touch screen.

Some dude did a scratch test on the Blackberry touch screen and it is as the hardest element on Earth.!
Nokia's iPhone killer ?
As everyone should know Apple's iPhone was on the top of the list for everyone looking for a smart phone and has 16.6% of the smart phone market.
But the global smartphone leader by a huge margin Nokia did not have such good sales, its marketshare shrank from 63.3 percent to just 43.6 percent.
Even though it's not like the Apple's iPhone is stealing Nokia's users directly, Nokia has come out with a phone that they hope can challenge with the all mighty iPhone the N97. First look on the promotion video are amazing, lets hope Nokia's new flagship phone will boost its sales.
The Nokia N97 is expected to begin shipping in the first half of 2009 at an estimated retail price of EUR 550 before taxes or subsidies.
