Windows Mobile Still Sucks

I know there are a large number of readers who just love Windows Mobile, up to and including our own Mystictrust. Personally, I think you are all in love with the worlds worst phone based operating system. I would rather be waterboarded than have to endure a day with Windows Mobile. I’d rather the Cubs never win a world series than go back to a Windows Mobile device in its current state. Thankfully, my thoughts are echoed … [read full article]

Motorola And Magenta Marrying On September 10th?

Sascha Segan over at PC Mag (via Gearlog) has posted up an interesting theory on why he feels the Motorola event will be a T-mobile based launch. Through the simple process of elimination, Sascha explains one of the standout reasons. One of the keynote speakers is our dear overlord, T-mobile CTO Cole Brodman. Other factors such as details that Verizon and Sprint are either stating to be missing the event altogether, and with AT&T playing coy, all … [read full article]

Blackberry 8520 Dressed In White

Perhaps I just have an affinity for white phones as I feel white just looks sleeker and more streamlined. I know others will believe black offers the very same effect but hey, I’m writing this! While the retail release date seems to be missing, the Black 8520 dropped on the same day as Walmart so we’ll just hope for the same luck this time around. Of course, Walmart was also offering this introductory Blackberry at $48.88, a … [read full article]

Palm Springs Goes 3G

Wherefore art thou CS8?

Sony Ericsson is hands down my favorite cell phone manufacturer of all time. I have always been in love with their quick but feature rich phone icon based interface. I love the simplicity of it, the ability to hack the hell out of it and theme that baby to your heart’s content. Of course, the personalization is no more so than any Nokia would allow, but SE gets my love and adoration. Therefore, I pose the question … [read full article]

Reminder: Overage Charges Increasing

rising-rates

About a month ago David reported that overage charges were going to increase come September 1st, and well…that is tomorrow.  Treat this as a friendly reminder to save yourself a bunch of trouble, and charges, by changing your plan if you think (can you really plan this?) you will be using more than your allotted minutes.  Chances are, you will be fine, but if you have gone over on your minutes a … [read full article]

Three Phones T-Mobile Bound

Noka-3710a T-Mobile

As some of you may know, I happen to love when the FCC unveils information about upcoming phones.  Well, this wonderful government body (which has all the fun with new phones) has granted access to three new phones for T-Mobile.  To begin with, we have the Nokia RM-509 (pictured above and known as the 3710 elsewhere), which is a mid range flip phone with a QVGA internal display, S40 UI, GPS, 3.2MP … [read full article]
