Aside from sounding like a neo-futuristic epic about the human resistance’s last stand against evil, sentient money machines, ATM Hunter is also a new app for Android from MasterCard that allows users to track down the closest cash dispensing kiosk no matter where they are.

The LG G-Slate was announced for T-Mobile back at CES, but with no demos proper or any hands-on time (the tablet passed through the conference like a ship in the night) little is actually known about the tablet other than 4G support (in the US at least) and Android 3.0 Honeycomb. Enter LG France, who [...]

The Al Gore-led Current TV is a channel driven by user content, right down to the very ads they play. A recent call for “Viewer Created Ad Messages” went out for the Samsung Galaxy Tab, and the results are in. While 22 videos made it through as finalists, six were selected to air during the [...]

RealPlayer, a company that used to be engrained in the very fabric of the web when it came to playing back audio and video, has fallen a bit off the map lately. Their recently released Android app isn’t necessarily creating and big splashes, but they have taken the critique and criticism to heart and put [...]

Just about the only thing the original CherryPad had going for it was its price tag set below $200. For that price you got just about what you paid for, so complaining about it was a futile exercise. Or was it? Specs are starting to leak on the followup to the CherryPad, and while it [...]

The Samsung SGH-T959V just made its way through the FCC, and if we had to bet the farm on it we’d say this device is almost definitely the Vibrant 4G slated for T-Mobile. The outline looks all too familiar, and the model number matches the original Vibrant’s SGH-T959 rather closely. Throw ins AWS support, a [...]

The very same teaser site that dangled the original Samsung Galaxy S before our eyes is at it again, this time promising the “next evolution in Samsung Mobile” at this year’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. The site also gives a few other little quotables, including “Evolution is fate” and “something big is coming.” We [...]

While we can’t say the same for Verizon’s shiny new iPhone, it looks like the HTC Thunderbolt will be on of the first devices on Big Red’s network to support simultaneous voice and data.

Just because Steve Jobs is take a leave of absence for his health doesn’t mean COO and acting head of Apple Tim Cook doesn’t want to have a go at it.

While most — if not all — the information we could learn about the Samsung S5830 before MWC in Barcelona was revealed yesterday, the phone that will be called the Ace or Cooper depending on where you buy it has yet again been captured on camera. The shot doesn’t do anything to tell us more [...]

For the past two or three days the fine readers of this site have been bombarding us with a link to a certain post on XDA pertaining to the Android 2.2 updates for US Samsung Galaxy S devices. If you want to read it, feel free to head over to XDA’s forums and check it [...]

Here is another story you guys can whine “slow news day?” about. T-Pain, the fine purveyor of all things auto-tune, and his Nappy Boy Entertainment have just launched a new Android app called Booty Symphony. What exactly is a Booty Symphony?

Yesterday came the tragic tale that the Cricket crew had managed to lose a six foot tall Android costume that they valued at $4,500 right off the back of a pickup truck.

We all knew it was coming, but an update to Verizon’s official FAQ has sounded the final death knell for the ‘New Every Two’ program allowing customers to upgrade their handset at a discounted cost every two years. New lines and new customers will, as of now, not be eligible for discounted upgrades every two [...]

A pair of mostly unrelated LG stories here: During CES the Korean phone maker showed off a bit of functional glasses-free 3D technology housed in a non-functional smartphone casing.
