Vodafone UK has just announced 3 fresh releases today: Sony Ericsson Satio, LG GM750 and HTC Tattoo. The phones are all available now, for free with a 2 year contract with different monthly rates for each handset. Satio will have you spending £35 a month, while LG GM750 and HTC Tattoo will put a £25-worth hole in your pocket each month.

Buying the handsets online gets you 300 minutes per month extra, courtesy of Vodafone, certainly a neat deal, if you ask me. LG GM750 is a Windows Mobile 6.5 handset packing a 5 megapixel camera, GPS receiver, Wi-Fi, the S-Class use interface and a 3 inch QVGA display.

HTC Tattoo is an Android device, that packs a 2.8 inch touchscreen display, a 3.2 megapixel camera, a 3.5mm headset jack, GPS and a microSD card slot. FM radio and Android 1.6 are also on board.

Vodafone UK seems to be gearing up for a BlackBerry Storm 2 announcement this week, or so claim the folks of The Guardian. Also dubbed Storm 9520, the device might be available for free with over £30 tarrifs ($47.40), with either an 18 months or 24 months contract.

Also, it seems plausible that Vodafone UK wants to counter O2′s Palm Pre offer, by offering the BlackBerry Storm 2 for free, with a contract. The smartphone features a 3.2 megapixel camera with support for video recording, a light sensor, a touchscreen display (360 x 480 pixels) and you’ll also find GSM quad band connectivity on its specs, CDMA dual band and UMTS (European/Asian 3G).

Storm 2′s specs list also includes a microSDHC card slot, BlackBerry OS 5.0, predictive text input, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and a 3.5mm audio jack.

Vodafone UK will follow Orange UK’s lead, launching the iPhone 3GS on the local market. Just yesterday we learned, that O2′s exclusivity contract with Apple expired, so now Orange UK will be able to sell the iPhone, most likely from October.

Meanwhile, Vodafone UK will only be getting a piece of the iPhone action from the beginning of 2010, after 2 years of O2 UK exclusivity for Apple’s phone.

Next move? Probably T-Mobile with a similar announcement and 3UK as well, since they’re important carriers, but they might also focus on the wave of fresh Android handsets coming soon.

Vodafone UK will start shipping its new affordable Android-powered device called HTC Tatto in October. The price still remains a mystery for now and we must trust that this will be indeed a cheap smartphone. The features of this handset are pretty heavy, the device being equipped with the same Sense UI as HTC Hero, Wifi and GPRS plus HSDPA support.

Other specifications of this smartphone are its 3.2 megapixel camera with video recording capabilities, Bluetooth, a 3.2 inch touchscreen, a memory card slot and an MP3 player. We also have to mention the fact that this handset is triband and quadband capable and that it has email features.

ITG just made an unique move by launching the first Windows XP handset and you can pre-order it now on the ITG’s English website. Far from being a  small girlish discrete cellphone, this handset has a shinny aluminium case that hides some spectacular features.

We are talking about an AMD processor, a 512MB/1GB memory and dual hard drives (SSD and HDD). The phone also features a 4.8 inch touchscreen, a full QWERTY keyboard, Bluetooth and GPS plus WiMax (optional).

There is no sense in mentioning that the device supports almost all the 3G networks being compatible will nearly all European and American mobile carriers like Orange, Vodafone and AT&T. The price and the launch date are still a mystery.
