This quote completely came out of left field and smacked me in the face this morning. Nokia’s Anssi Vanjoki – speaking with Financial Times – states that they aren’t going the Android route because it’s more like being a Finnish boy that pees in his pants to stay warm throughout the winter. It’s easy to [...]

A new Verizon phone has just showed its face and it looks to be LG-donned. The button configuration doesn’t immediately tell us this is simply an “Optimus One for Verizon,” but it’s not uncommon to see a phone’s externals get shuffled around a bit for release in another region. The name of the device will [...]

The first thing on everyone’s minds when HTC announced the new version of their Sense UI alongside the HTC Desire HD and the HTC Desrie Z was “would other current HTC Sense devices be getting this update?” That answer may be yes if HTC Spain’s Twitter account is to be believed. (It’s imperative to note [...]

How quick was that? We’re just under a week outside of HTC’s event last week where they unveiled the HTC Desire HD and HTC Desire Z and a determined developer’s already hacked up a nice port of the HD’s image to slap onto the HTC HD2. Quite fitting that this happened so fast considering the [...]

That security hole that no one got fidgety over has been patched up by Adobe today. You can find the now-should-be-more-secure version in the Android market as version 10.1.95.1. There’s really no changelog to be had as this is only a quick fix for that critical flaw. Some other bit of news might have squeaked [...]

Sony’s looking to hire a senior developer to join their PlayStation team, and you already know which rumor we’re about to entertain. While the list of qualifications and experience needed is lengthy, one line stands out from the rest: “experience in mobile development, specifically Android is a plus.” Hmmm… so you’re looking for someone who [...]

Logitech’s just slyly dropped a beta version of their remote application in the Android market today that we all suspect is the companion application for those scooping up the Logitech Revue (rumored to come September 29th). The app is simply listed as “Remote” in the Android market by DHG and the description reads “By invitation [...]

Sprint’s moving a bit slower on 4G launches than they were just a few weeks ago, but they’re moving nevertheless. Today sees Orlando, Florida – home of Universal’s flashy paradise and Walt Disney’s own kingdom – helping themselves to a nice serving of hearty 4G. If you have an Epic 4G or an EVO 4G [...]

The second Love and Appiness convening is going down in just three days – that’s September 23rd – and tickets are flying as we inch closer and closer to the evening wine and dine meet up at Roe’s in San Francisco. Seats are limited so it’s necessary to RSVP and it’s a good idea to [...]

Ok, it’s not actually called the “Girly” edition. My mistake. It might as well be, though, as Samsung’s announcing the upcoming availability of the Samsung Galaxy S Femme Aveda. You get a hot pink phone obviously (which some males might find desirable), but it also comes preinstalled with an Aveda app and is packaged inside [...]

Google’s celebrating great performance and growth as 3 million companies and schools have “gone Google” by announcing a new version of Google Docs that’ll allow you to edit and synchronize your documents on your Android device. This is one feature many have been requesting from Google for a long time, now, so I’m sure more [...]

As much as HTC Sense users love their devices, there’s one thing you can’t deny: boot times on a Sense device are significantly longer than on other devices. HTC thankfully noticed that, as well, and they’ve optimized their boot process on the latest version of Sense – featured on the Desire Z and Desire HD [...]

Last Friday we reported on the sudden news that the Motorola FLIPOUT would be debuting over the weekend, but equally as sudden signs are pointing to the last minute demise of the handset. Word is corporate -owned retail stores were given the orders to simply destroy the relative literature that had been shipped out as [...]

When we first heard of the HTC Lexikon all we had to go off of was the name, but now a render of the device is suggesting not only will it go to Verizon but it looks to feature the Droid branding judging by some well-placed red accents. The specs match up well with the [...]

Unrevoked is back from taking a short breather now holding version number 3.21, a big .01 up from when the one-click root method was pulled for testing after some devices weren’t playing too nicely with the software. Now you can quickly and easily get back to rooting a whole slew of HTC-branded phones including the [...]

The HTC Desire HD is hitting the streets hard in October, making it far and wide around Asia and Europe. The phone will also be available in Australia, where Vodafone and 3 are set to be the carriers to seek if you want to get your hands on the HD. The HTC Desire Z should [...]

Samsung is striving to make a big case for portability when it comes to their new Galaxy Tab, and we don’t blame them. The pocketability of the tablet instantly separates the device from the much larger, harder to shove in your jeans iPad. A new promo video has popped up that shows off some of [...]

After some initial confusion around the launch of the Motorola Milestone XT720 it was said that a once 550MHz CPU would ship at a clock speed of 720MHz. Turns out when the phone’s got into the hands of consumers they were still sitting right at the original, lower speed. But Moto wants to make things [...]

Though HTC has been clear that they have not formally announced any plans for an Android tablet, last week a rumor came out that we could be seeing the device as soon as early 2011. Now Digitimes — the source of the original rumor — has their sources inside of Taiwanese device manufacturer Pegatron Technology [...]

If you had any doubts that the HTC Desire HD was going to be fast you can throw them out the window as Quadrant benchmark scores are already in for the newly announced handset. It looks like the next generation of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon pulls its weight in this one with its larger cache and GPU [...]
