Google Nexus Two Smartphone Rumored

Google will reportedly once again sell its own branded smartphone – Google Nexus Two, retailing it through The Carphone Warehouse in the UK.

According to cityam.com, the phone will use the new version of Google's Android smartphone OS, Ginger Bread, and be available before the end of the year. No details of the specs are available.

Google launched its first branded smartphone – Google Nexus One - on January 5 with 3G support just for T-mobile network in the US and Vodafone in the UK.

It retailed the Nexus One exclusively through its online store, which turned out to be mistake. Google apparently didn't anticipate serious support issues and went to the market without even a support phone line!

Soon after its launch, Nexus One users reported problems connecting to T-Mobile's 3G network. Many were also not happy with its touch screen. The problems were eventually resolved through software upgrades.

Faced with poor sales, Google stopped selling the Nexus One.

This time around, Google has chosen to tie up with a single brick and mortar retailer, instead of a carrier.

The Nexus One was manufactured by HTC. It is yet not clear which company will manufacture the Nexus Two.

The Carphone Warehouse owns Best Buy in the US, but the report isn't clear if the Nexus Two will be retailed through Best Buy in the US.

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers

Katy Perry for GHD Hairdryers Katy Perry continues working with the producers of GHD hair dryers and GHD hair care products: the singer once again demonstrated her luxurious hair in a fresh advertising campaign – this time she had the image of a diva from “the golden Hollywood” era (the pop-diva had already had the image of a hippie, a disco girl, and a mermaid). Luxurious dresses, bright makeup and a small portion of theatricality – one can immediately see that she is a star! The shooting was run by Ellen von Unwerth, who preferred to focus on restrained sensuality and the interplay of tones rather than on bright colors (the latter are always excessive with Katy) and presented black-and-white portraits of Perry to the public. The girl really looks perfect in the pictures : whether she is playing chess, recovering after a tiring concert or just getting ready to appear on stage. But whose merit is this: that of the photographer, the heroine, or maybe Photoshop?
