This little “me too” game that Google seems to be playing is starting to get interesting. The Nexus One was set to take on the iPhone, Chrome browser battled with Firefox, and Google wants to buy AdMob to counter Apple’s introduction of iAd. Now, they’ve taken it another step forward with Eric Schmidt – our [...]

Wait, what? Didn’t Palm’s CEO Jon Rubinstein say that the company was doing well enough on their own and had a strategy to spring them back into prosper? A rather interesting story popped up today from that folks at Bloomberg stating that Palm is looking to sell its company to a lucky highest bidder. Three [...]

This isn’t directly Android related, but its a pretty big scoop and we felt worthwhile in the grand scheme of things. We know that Verizon passed on the first iPhone, probably at least in part due to what they considered unacceptable exclusivity/money terms, and their decision to instead back the first touchscreen BlackBerry (Storm) proved [...]

Microsoft and Verizon are set to announce some new phones today, but that didn’t stop the LG Aloha from squeezing its way into a Verizon inventory slot. PhoneArena received an anonymous tip today with a nice set of screenshots that should make a good bunch of you happy. The VS740 – Aloha’s traditional model number [...]

I knew that after the FCC approved this device, it wouldn’t be long before we started getting more images of and details about the T-Mobile MyTouch Slide. With the steam building up surrounding the rumored May 19th release of this device, we imagine it won’t be long now before T-Mobile makes an official announcement and [...]

Let me put it this way: when your phone’s design and likeness is completely ripped off, you should be quite flattered to say so. We often see these knockoffs in many forms and in all types of technology, and phones seem to be right up there with the top prospects. Usually, we’ll see the millionth [...]

Remember that rumor that the HTC Droid Eris would be getting its honorable discharge from “Big Red” in the beginning of April? Yea, that didn’t actually happen, but the rumor has made its way back under the microscope in a different form. According to BerryScoop – again – we should be seeing the Droid Eris [...]

Finally, AT&T is getting a phone that Android users can be proud of. We first reported on this last week where a case of “history tends to repeat itself” showed that the phone might end up on the biggest American GSM carrier. Even more confirmation comes to us today by way of the FCC. If [...]

With all the buzz surrounding the HTC Incredible and everything that it’ll bring with it, it’s easy to forget there are other phones out there needing some loving, too. The hottest phone set to come out this summer, Sprint’s HTC EVO 4G, will come with a healthy set of accessories for its owners to play [...]

Many of us have been wondering what Motorola’s next move would be. After the Motorola Cliq, their flagship Droid, the underwhelming Devour, and the quirky Backflip on AT&T, we’re patiently awaiting a new phone announcement. The wait might be over soon, though, with the latest funky looking picture to come splashing out of the rumor [...]

If there is one place to get all the Incredible information your little heart can take, its gotta be at the HTC Incredible Forum on AndroidForums.com. Members there have been sticking to Verizon’s upcoming Android like white on rice, and the latest Sherlocking has turned up some pretty good pics of HTC Incredible accessories: HTC [...]

Surely you’ve been reading all the new articles from Kevin Krause & Quentyn Kennemer. And of course you’ve heard Steve Jobs talking Android Porn and seen all the HTC Incredible leaked documents. Combine them all and you’ve got Phandroid Podcast Episode 18! We call this the Kevin and Quentyn show as its the new team [...]

We were introduced to a nice little treat upon our return from lunch today: Vonage is coming out with an Android app. Initially, only AT&T and T-Mobile customers will be able to use the VoIP provider’s app, but there’s no word on the two CDMA national carriers in the states (their site just tells us [...]

Guess who’s bizzack? Anonimac! After leaking the Incredible User Guide and the Incredible Equipment Guide he made it trifecta by hooking up our readers and members with an internal email showing the Incredible will probably be officially announced on Monday! Perfect timing by Verizon, if you ask me, that is if they do indeed announce [...]

Motorola is continuing their global footprint expansion with the release of their second Android-based phone in South Korea. The Motorola Titanium XT800 seems to act as the MOTOROI’s baby sister, keeping in mind that it’s not as powerful as its predecessor. The phone will soon be available in two offerings: The XT800C will net y0u [...]

With the leaks of the User’s Manual and Equipment Guide yesterday, we got our first substantial look at the HTC Incredible and its specs. Now we have a pretty little render of the phone giving us a look at the overall size and profile. The Incredible looks sleek and it’s red accents just scream of [...]

Remember when we noticed that the T-Mobile MyTouch Slide began appearing in RadioShack’s Direct2U system the other day? That’s probably because we’re moving closer and closer to an official reveal of the oft-rumored myTouch 3G successor. Today, even more confirmation comes to us in a candid FCC photo that we always get so giddy about. [...]

Looks like HTC has just filed a patent for a device that would feature dual touchscreens in a clamshell design. Many are comparing the device to the Microsoft Courier, a similarly dual-screened device, but the Courier would be lacking one key element that is sure to make its way on to this interesting HTC design: [...]

I know a lot of you Motorola CLIQ owners out there are hankering for a fix to your phone troubles: if a laggy and buggy interface wasn’t bad enough, the actual MOTOBLUR service has all but pissed off quite a few people. T-Mobile and Motorola certainly heard you and they’ve released an update late last [...]

HTC Desire fans in the UK just can’t catch a break. Depending on what carrier you prefer, you may already have a Desire, you may have one on pre-order, or you may be patiently waiting for the units to arrive in-store. Before you go and cancel that pre-order or move on to buying another phone, [...]
