This year we’re covering the Barcelona Mobile World Congress a little differently. Each day there will be one liveblog post here on Cult of Mac and one on Cult of Android.
Instead of gathering up press releases and writing them up in the press office at the show, and then hitting the parties, we’ll be posting quick photos and snippets of info from the show floor itself (and from the parties, if we don’t lose our phones).
Think of it as a kind of Instagram/Twitter hybrid, only right here on the site. Currently the newest posts are at the top, reverse-chronological style. And if you want us to check something out, Tweet us @mistercharlie or @killianbell.
Check it out:
The BOB “Bubble Over Barcelona” party. Full of all your favorite NYT and TechCrunch writers.
Oaxis’s e-ink screen pairs with the iPhone and can be used for anything. Like a bike computer or GPS.
Braven’s new bike-friendly waterproof, rugged speaker comes out next week. $229. They tell me it sounds R.A.D rad.
The Incipio Focal. Adds camera controls and a grip to the iPhone, for $79. Available soon.
Incipio’s case adds NFC to your iPhone. I have a feeling NFC might let the U.S finally stop using mag strip credit cards.
Fitbit has a challenge at the show. The person who does the most exercise wins a free extra year of life.
HTC has the Champions League trophy on its stand. That’s for football. Or soccer to our stateside viewers.
Killian’s looking for a rape alarm so he doesn’t get mugged on the way back to the hotel
