The T-Mobile MyTouch 3G Event in NYC was held today and as you probably know, current T-Mobile customers can now pre-order the device. We all know that the MyTouch is essentially a keyboard-less G1 or an American HTC Magic – but what did we learn about the phone that we DIDN’T know before. Quite a [...]

Bringin’ the noise, bringin’ the funk. Google is working on an Android Live CD for your Desktop OS’ing pleasure. Thanks to a tip off from our resident coder Devolio, we’re able to report that Google is working on a downloadable Android OS that can be burned to a cd and run on your desktop computer [...]

Just when you thought it was safe to assume that Google’s netbook OS would go to Android, Google drops a wtf-scatter-bomb and announces a Chrome OS. Seriously? Talk about left field. Initial skepticism will, most likely, be pretty heavy on this one. Google already has a perfectly good phone operating system that not only is [...]

In the MyTouch 3G info packet we got on a UUSB there were a ton of PDFs and one of them is an absolute GOLDMINE of new accessories exclusively for the MyTouch 3G. Wanna see what I mean? MyTouch Battery Extender: MyTouch 3G Docking Station. Wow I want this for my G1 please? Pretty sweet! [...]

There is nothing more official than a press release… and that is exactly what I’ve got for you when it comes to the T-Mobile MyTouch 3G. I converted it from PDF to JPG so you could view it inline (click to enlarge). I’m sure the text version of this is floating around somewhere on the [...]

While the newest Android, otherwise known as the HTC Magic, is no doubt a great device, we have trouble recognizing it would be worth all of that $200 on contract that T-Mobile is reportedly asking for. In the face of competitors like the iPhone that are going for $99, and the lack of such “I’d [...]

It looks like even carriers are starting to get in on the Android app frenzy. With a recent drop in prices of both of their Android handsets and a new contest in the works, it looks like Rogers Wireless of Canada may be trying to give its Android handsets a boost in the face of [...]

If the usual banner system used in Android just isn’t doing it for you there is now a different way to make your unread count known to you: the iPhone way. SMS Unread Count is a free widget that allows users to replace the standard icons with those that have message counts. The widget allows [...]

With smartphone design under Mike and Maaike belts, automotive design just seems like the next logical step, no? Okay, well perhaps not, but their concept is an interesting one. Rather than the car as we know it today, the G1 designers have a new take on what the car really is. Their design includes a [...]

Its just a concept, but Tryi Yeh‘s G0 phone is looking pretty cool. The name was no doubt intended to poke a little fun at HTC’s design efforts in the G1, but there is some interesting ideas beyond the design. Besides looking pretty attractive (and mostly realistic to manufacture no less), the device has a [...]

Motorola’s Android handsets have been in the works for a long time now, but the company has managed to be pretty tight lipped about progress. Since Android handsets are still arriving in the marketplace in reletively small numbers, Motos work in the arena is pretty important. It also goes without saying that for a struggling [...]

The Samsung Galaxy is already available to the lucky Germans who can get the Android goods by way of O2 and it now appears that folks in the UK won’t have long to wait. The company confirmed to TechRadar that they will begin offering the Samsung Galaxy later this month and although it is unclear [...]

The rumor mill is twirling at full speed this Monday morning as The Guardian reports that Nokia is producing an Android Phone in what they call “a strategic U-turn” for the world’s largest phone manufacturer. Nokia quickly and flatly denied the rumor, offering the following statement: There is no truth to this story whatsoever. It [...]

China Mobile isn’t projected to offer an App Store to its nearly 500  million subscribers until September, but the Mobile App Store website (mmarket.com) was found up and running today. Mostly with broken links, sure – but the implications are humongous. China Mobile is launching their “OPhone” later this year which is slated to be [...]

The company line on the HTC Hero has been Europe in July, Asia later this summer and North America before the year ends.

(Scroll down for the pictures!!!) It was only last week that Vodafone held a high-priced and celebrity-filled Hotel party to celebrate the launch of the HTC Magic in New Zealand.
