The 3GSM Show 2004 in Cannes is over. The mobile phone industry seems to be in good spirits and 3G disaster might finally be forgotten.

We reported about several new exciting mobile phones announced at the show. Nokia introduced their new Communicator 9500 with built-in Wi-fi. Wi-fi enabled Smart-phones is definitely a new trend for 2004. I suspect more phones coming out with Wi-fi network capability. Motorola has also announced a Wi-Fi Smart phone at the 3GSM show. The Motorola MPx powered by Microsoft Mobile OS goes straight against the Nokia 9500 powered by Symbian OS.

Motorola introduced also two 3G handsets. The A1000 and E1000 3G Smart phones  functions such as Word, Excel, video conferencing and Powerpoint. 

Philips introduced a couple of interesting consumer oriented phones. The Philips 759 and 755 Camera Phones feature a touch sensitive screen that allows users to scribble messages on photos to personalize multi-media messages. The phones also feature BeDJ a music mixing software. Sendo showed also some new phones including the S600 Camera Phone with 5x Zoom.

On the topic of mobile phone future, Panasonic showed a Holograph Viewer Mobile Phone. On the lighter side of things, 3GSM also featured a Gadget Fashion Show.
