Alright, you can definitely file this under “awesome.” A Palm Pre developer that goes by the name of k3dar over PreCentral Forums has managed to get Android dual-booting on his Palm Pre. The port is nowhere near ready for prime-time (and most likely wont ever be) but I was honestly impressed at how well he [...]

Pocket Now received some marketing materials via an anonymous tipster showing off another addition to Verizon’s Android lineup, the Casio G’zOne Commando. This heavy duty phone seems to be aimed at the working man or Bear Grylls wanna-be and touts full resistance to shock, water and dust (what, no bullets?). Besides being used as a [...]

Just got word from some friends on Twitter that they are being prompted to install an Android 2.2 update on their Samsung Fascinate. We reported earlier today how Fascinate owners can (finally) look forward to the Froyo update being pushed out tomorrow but for some lucky users, they’re seeing this update being pushed out now. [...]

An interesting tip regarding a potential release date of the HTC Sensation just came our way courtesy of our friends at T-Mo News. They’re reporting that for some individuals (I tried it and got nothing), doing a simple Google search for “HTC Sensation” brings up a Google ad showing a June 8th release date and [...]

I can’t tell you how many news articles I’ve read of new release dates for Samsung’s Galaxy S II. First its been delayed, then its not, then it came out last week, then it didn’t. Its enough to drive someone mad! It reminds me of this song  my sister used to play, “First you’re hot [...]

Looks like Intel isn’t the only company doing better than expected this quarter. Popular chipset maker, Qualcomm Inc. posted higher than expected quarterly results for 2010 and because of it, they’re raising their 2011 fiscal revenue targets. Despite stiff competition from Nvida, Samsung and Texas Instruments this year, the company is bumping up its 2011 goal of $13.6 billion to [...]

With all of these quarterly financial reports coming out this week, we’re bound to find an interesting tidbit or two floating about. ITG – an investment research firm – reports that the HTC Thunderbolt sold more units than Verizon’s iPhone 4. I can’t necessarily describe my response as being “surprised” considering early reports that said [...]

The Samsung DROID Charge is yet another Verizon device rumored to be launched on April 28th. With today’s confirmation from Wirefly that its HTC-made cousin – he DROID Incredible 2 – would be out on 4/28 following a presale window tomorrow, word has come in of marketing materials and accessories for the DROID Charge making [...]

Well Verizon’s not helping us in the way of any sort of official confirmation but at least Wirefly’s got our back. They’ve just let us know that the DROID Incredible 2 will be up for presale on their site at 3am tomorrow morning, April 21st. And once you put that order in, you can expect [...]

Here’s a sweet rumor for you this late afternoon. Amazon has long been rumored to be working on an Android tablet. The launch of their Android Appstore led us to believe that it was true, but it seems their goal with that is a bit different than we originally expected. Other evidence – such as [...]

The T-Mobile G2X was just launched in-stores today and deals are already floating about the internet. Hell, just this morning Amazon had the stock Android dual-core device for $200 but that amount has since been reduced by $50. And the best part of all – no nasty rebates to mess around with. Go ahead and [...]

Just when thing were starting to look up for ASUS’ forthcoming Honeycomb tablet, it’s reportedly being delayed. The word first came in through Amazon who told their customers not to expect the dockable tablet until June of this year. To put that into context, the thing was expected to be out already. And technical issues [...]

This should come as no surprise to anyone – UK carriers tend to carry most high-profile devices without much of a fuss – but T-Mobile UK has published coming soon pages for the Galaxy S II, the LG Optimus 3D, and the Xperia Neo. (This is in addition to the HTC ChaCha found earlier.) These [...]

Just moments after learning Motorola had published a method for getting back to stock firmware on the ATRIX 4G, we’ve learned they’re sending out emails to owners to help beta test a new software upgrade. Just the other day, it was reported on XDA that one lucky soul received not one, but two updates which [...]

Motorola knows that people root – they’re not sworn to hate that. And they know there will be some people who’ll want a nice HSUPA upgrade once AT&T gets around to issuing it. (And we hear it’s already in the hands of testers.) Thus, they’ve released a method to return any Motorola ATRIX 4G on [...]

I sometimes feel it’s pointless to post these “root achieved” articles because it’s almost always possible no matter which phone you have and no matter how locked down it is. The latest is Sony Ericsson’s Xperia Arc, which launched in several regions recently but seems to be the forgotten cousin of the Xperia Play. If [...]

Take a look at this picture. Take a good look at it. On the right? an iPhone. (I’m not sure which revision, really.They all look the same to me.) On the left? Well that’s a little fellow from Samsung known as the Samsung F700. The image alleges that the phone was announced in 2006 and [...]

It’s been a long time since we’ve gotten a stock Android device from Motorola – I think the last one was the Milestone/DROID. We’d love it if they’d consider bringing more out to more carriers, but we’ll just have to remain satisfied with today’s news that they’ll be bringing a new handset to Virgin Mobile [...]

Would you just look at all this stuff? So much good has happened over the past couple of days and we’d be remissed if we didn’t at least give you guys a quick heads up on some of this stuff. In particular, there are some pretty nice apps that have just come out and some [...]

Verizon has just sent out word that the long-awaited Android 2.2 update for the Samsung Fascinate (the very one that saw its source code placed online last week) will start its rollout to handset owners beginning tomorrow, April 21st. Yes, we will believe it when we see it, too. Verizon has all of the documentation [...]
