Backing up your Mobile Phone data is real easy with "Bubble". Bubble is a subscriber based service that allows you to backup and restore all your mobile phone contacts over the air, like making a phone call. No cables, no cradles, no problem. So you can bubble your phone anywhere, anytime.

Bubble is more adavanced than a straight forward data back up and restore service. It allows you to do a fully automated synchronisation between your mobile phone and your “Bubble”. This means during a synchronisation your phone will automatically work out what information has changed since your last sync and sends only the new changes to your bubble. Meanwhile, your bubble automatically works out if you have made any changes via the web site and downloads these to your phone.

Neat! See trustbubble.com

So my wife doesn't go all Jedi on my arse about the Christina Aguilera mobile wallpapers, I thought I should put one up for the ladies. cellphone-wallpapers.net has a free David Beckham mobile wallpaper for you to download. Get it here.

I was going to post details of a few of their mobile video clips, but finally we have some sun here in Norfolk, so I'm off to Pettits Animal Adverture Park to pat goats with my son.

Narendra over at cellphone-wallpapers.net dropped me an email after I gave a shout out to zedge.net. You'll remember I said that you'd be hard pushed to find a better site for free mobile downloads.

Well Narendra didn't give me any agro for making the claim, instead just suggested I checkout cellphone-wallpapers.net.

I did, and I like it. In addition to free mobile wallpapers there is a great selection of free mobile video clips. I'll pick a couple of good ones out shortly.

Get over to cellphone-wallpapers.net and check them out for yourself.

Feeling flush? How about a limited edition SMS text mirror?

For just $10,000 you can get your hands on a mirror that's able to receive SMS text messages sent from a mobile phone. The messages appear as luminous text, running on the mirrors’ surface when one gets close to the mirror. It's called The +336+ and is designed by Robert Stadler (of the French design group Radi Designers).

Buy it here (no, really)

At last, a decent Harry Potter mobile game... Based on the 5th Harry Potter movie 'Harry Potter and The Order of The Pheonix'... Harry's fifth year at Hogwarts is shaping up to be his most dangerous yet. Fearing that Hogwarts' venerable Headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, is lying about the return of Voldemort in order to undermine his power, Minister for Magic Cornelius Fudge appoints a new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher to keep watch over Dumbledore and the students.

But Professor Dolores Umbridge's ministry-approved course leaves the young wizards woefully unprepared, so Hermione, Ron and Harry form "Dumbledore's Army" with the goal of preparing themselves and other courageous young wizards for the extraordinary battle that looms against Voldemort and his Death Eaters.

Buying concert tickets on your mobile phone. To be honest, I thought this was a waste of time when I first read it, you know... one of the "solutions to a non-existent problem".

But it turns out it has a couple of great features. First you can buy tickets to a concert for a friend and have it sent direct to their mobile phone, and second, if you lose your phone, you can have the ticket resent to a new mobile phone free of charge. Unlike losing a paper ticket, where you have to buy them again.

Ticket-Text.com naturally claim the tickets are cheaper, I dunno, but they don't have the post and packing fees that my usual ticket vendor charges me. Cool!
