Yesterday, we notified you guys about the new version of Skype 2.0 that allowed video calls over WiFi and 3G/4G. But to many an Android user’s dismay, the new app only officially supported a handful of devices. Google  Nexus S, HTC Desire S, Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo and Sony Ericsson Xperia Pro to be exact. [...]

I like to consider myself a pretty easy going guy, always smiling, petting babies and kissing little dogs. Most people would describe me as laid back and are usually amazed at how almost nothing can really set me off. Well, all that changed with the Android Market and, for lack of better words, the Android [...]

Google is on fire lately! With the launch of the uber exclusive social network, Google+, we were introduced to something I wasn’t used to seeing from Google: polished UI. Well, it looks like Google is running with the UI from Google+ and incorporating it into Gmail as well. The newer, more minimalistic, clean look wont [...]

Google’s at it again with their famous “me too” approach but hey, I’m not knocking it. This time they’re taking Instagram to the streets with Pool Party for Android. The app was developed by their Slide team and sadly, much like Google+, it’s available by invite only. Pool Party is a photo sharing app that [...]

There’s a lot of things in this world that I will never understand. Like, how CD’s work or why we have to suffer with hiccups. Well, today you can add another item on that list. Why is Canada getting the Samsung Galaxy S II before the US? Well, I guess it’s still up in the [...]

Not sure if I should file this under weird or just out of the ordinary but it looks like Google has partnered with Virgin America Airlines to offer free Google Chromebook demos to their passengers. Then again, when you think about it — it kind of makes sense.  Having a captive audience stuck in a [...]

I was going to title the post “BREAKING LEAK” but that didn’t sound quite right. In any case, it looks like the guys over at Android Central were able to snag a snapshot of a chart showing off the specs of Motorola’s upcoming Droid 3. While there’s not too much here we didn’t already know/guess, [...]

The Android Market can be an intimidating place, but we don’t think it should be. We scour dozens of new entries to the Market each day and feature the best and most anticipated entries here in our Apps of the Day. Today we have a social networking alternative where popularity isn’t based on how many [...]

Google+ looks a bit like Facebook and acts a bit like Twitter. One great feature is that you can add ANYBODY to your Circles, even without them adding you. If they haven’t added you to a circle, you’ll only see posts and info they make public. Nonetheless if G+ becomes Twitterish we could be getting [...]

It looks like Mr. Mark Zuckerberg – founder of Facebook – has a Google+ profile and is peeking his head in on the service. In fact, you can visit his profile and add him to one of your circles now! I tried to add him to a Circle I created called “Trust” but got this [...]

It has been a while since we have seen or heard of the Galapagos line of tablets from Sharp. The devices were last seen earlier this year when a 5.5-inch and 10.8-inch model were revealed in an FCC filing. We caught a glimpse of what to expect a few days later at CES, but it [...]

Android continues to lead the US smartphone market as, for the first time ever, the sale of smartphones has surpassed the sale feature phones, according to Nielsen. A majority 55 percent of new cell phone buyers went with a smartphone as their new handset, an increase from 34 percent one year ago. Of US mobile [...]

Amazon wants to ship 4 million tablets by the end of the year, but supply problems might get in the way of their goal. The retail giant has ordered up tablet touch panels in excess of 1.5 million, according to DigiTimes, but competing orders from Apple have manufacturers of the displays hesitant to commit. Several [...]

Ladies and gentlemen, after signs of potential arose when an exploit was uncovered by the hardworking Team Win, root has been achieved for the HTC EVO 3D on both the out-of-the-box software build and most recent OTA update. Root was achieved by Android dev agrabren, though the exploit in question isn’t available to the general [...]

The Motorola DROID 3 is coming soon…if rumors pan out, that is. The buzz is picking up around the device behind the scenes at Verizon with two possible launch dates being floated. The earlier of the two is next week, July 7th, while a July 14th date also seems a possibility. While no official announcement [...]

Cut the Rope has been available as a free download from GetJar since last week, but for those without access to the third-party app store or who would prefer a version of the game sans ads, look no further than the Android Market. The game was made available today at a price that won’t even [...]

Taco Bell, Pepsi, and Samsung are teaming up to giveaway the Samsung Galaxy Tab as part of a text-in-to-win promotion. Unfortunately, they aren’t giving away the brand new Galaxy Tab 10.1, but rather the original 7-inch Galaxy Tab. All you have to do is guzzle down a large fountain drink. Actually, you just need to [...]

When we directed your attention to a short video of the upcoming S2 tablet with Honeycomb, we overlooked Sony’s other Android tablet, the S1, which was also part of golem.de‘s hands-on. So here it is, looking mighty sexy if I do say so myself. If you were wondering how the curved stylings of the S1 [...]

Another variation on the dual-core theme is headed to China in the form of the Motorola MT870. It’s the second dual-core handset from Moto announced for the country, following the Milestone 3. That is where the similarities end (for the most part). The MT870 rocks an NVIDIA Tegra 2 clocked at 1GHz, a 4-inch qHD [...]

We’ve seen it before, but never in true working form. It’s always been a simulation, a photo of the device, or a video of the device without anything touching it in any capacity. We’ve finally got at least one hands-on experience from someone on the interwebz, though. The video itself is 18 seconds and only [...]
