Changes In Pricing Plan Overages Coming September 1

Bringing pack Catherine Zeta Jones to spearhead yourMobileMakeover campaign is a mighty fine idea and T-mobile, we thank thank thank you for doing so. That being said, it appears as though everything can’t be sunshine and rainbows. Word came down yesterday that starting July 27th, customers will start receiving snail mail notifications stating that effective September 1st T-mobile is increasing their per minute overage charge. In an effort to better … [read full article]

Donuts Served to the Masses

As the extending dessert list led us to believe, Google and Android has dished out Donut (well technically, they dropped new code for Android Donut).  Some people over at XDA Developers are reporting that Donut will be stuffed with system-wide multitouch, universal search, text to speech, automated backups, a new camera app, and somehow (supposedly) better performance (sounds yummy).  There also seems to be some CDMA support (for those lucky Sprint and possibly Verizon customers).  The … [read full article]

More Android Desserts to Come

http://the-mobiler.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/android-550x420.jpg

Android just seems to get sweeter and sweeter with every update, and we now know the names of the next three.  Google will be dishing out healthy servings of Donut, Eclair and Flan sometime this year.  I don’t know about you, but I’m wondering what dessert they pick when they reach “x” (in case you missed it, the updates are named alphabetically and are based off desserts).  Not much has been said about the new updates … [read full article]

"More" TP2 specs – hello to conflicting information

Back in June, Touch Pro2 enthusiasts were greeted with a lengthy spec sheet which outlined the anticipated specs of the high end Windows Mobile phone. All was good. Now, a few more tidbits of information have made it into T-Mobile specs… if the new images are to be trusted, that is. For reference/comparison purposes, the previously posted specs can be found at the bottom of this posting. [singlepic=34,370,300] [singlepic=35,301,300] Of note, battery life has increased … [read full article]

Look! A leather holster… with no clip

[singlepic=32,300,300] Fans of leather holsters and the Touch Pro2 rejoice because exclusive pictures of the device and the holster that it ships with have just hit our inbox. While it looks like a pretty solid, standard case in which to hold the phone, it’s actually missing one major component to what makes a holster a REAL holster… a clip! While that makes this great for those who want to protect your phone while it’s busy being … [read full article]

Daylight Photos/Video: Touch Pro2

[singlepic=17,451,300] Been looking forward to seeing the Touch Pro2 in daylight for once? Pictures have surfaced of T-Mobile’s next Windows Mobile device that actually do not feature the device in a somewhat dark room. Not that we don’t appreciate ALL photos of this phone that we’ve seen, but it’s great to actually see it in a room full of sunlight. Our photographer had this to say during the 45 minutes he had to use it and … [read full article]

Touch Pro2… videos, please

Thanks to a tipster by the name of undertmocover, we now have two exclusive videos of the Touch Pro2 in all it’s glory. Don’t expect any sound though as they both came completely mute, but there’s plenty of sliding and screen touching action on the visual side! These videos may not be of HD quality but they get the job done….and I think that’s all we can ask for at this point. Well, besides more videos. … [read full article]
