Let me preface this by saying I don’t want this to be about whether or not Android is good or bad, old or new or anything in between. The question I wish to pose (among others) is whether or not Android is the right fit for the upcoming Sidekick 4G. Along with that, will customers come back to the Sidekick brand when the last thing they remember about Sidekick is an overwhelming story regarding … [read full article]

I remember a time when Nokia sat on top of the world, when the Matrix phone was the hottest technology and I thought the 1.3 Megapixel camera on my Nokia 6682 was the greatest thing ever. Well, times have changed and Nokia has found itself in a position where they just can’t catch a break in the US market. The cancellation of the Nuron 2 happened almost a month ago and I promised myself when I found … [read full article]
First of all, if this is truly a Samsung produced teaser video, whoever chose the music needs to be fired. Immediately. Whoever got approval to use the rumored (and we emphasize complete rumor here) specs, needs a raise. We urge these specs are rumor only for the moment (did we mention they are rumored) with no way of verifying but if they are true, they are pretty great. Android OS 2.3 Gingerbread (upgrade 3.0 Honeycomb) 3D … [read full article]

Update: I’ve added in this official internal screen shot, fire up Mini Kies and get yourself Froyo!!! To say that Samsung Vibrant owners are waking up today and checking their phones with a fury to find that elusive Froyo update would likely be an understatement. While we learned yesterday the update would in fact happen today, T-Mobile CMO Cole Brodman said the update would be staggered over time. However, early reports from the front line indicate … [read full article]
Are the first in the wild shots of the LG G-Slate coming from all places, a Korean music video? Other than a quick look at the T-Mobile CES press event, we really have no idea what the final look of the G-Slate will be, up until now. Accordingly, the pictures we see in this post coincide with the possible leaked specs that earlier in the week via LG France. The video ain’t half bad … [read full article]
