Yesterday, Netflix updated their Android market listing to show a massive list of new devices that can playback streaming video using their application.

The folks at T-Mobile have sent a Gingerbread update for the MyTouch 4G slide out to a group of “pilot” users today, meaning it’s officially here… sort of.

Never mind that Best Buy was selling the thing a bit early, Virgin Mobile’s stock Android handset the Motorola TRIUMPH is now available in stores and online.

Good evening, everyone. Who would have thought it’s been exactly 1000 days since the G1 was released. A lot has changed in that small amount of time but it’s been a good run to say the least. Sometimes when our site has so many Android articles coming in, we’re forced to let some of those [...]

If you were to take a look at the supported devices list for the Netflix app in the Android Market you may notice a handful of new devices are now being listed as supported.

Well, they’re able to do this is due to the specific malware in question sending [...]

Sprint’s Fared Adib is the go-to-guy on Sprint and leading the charge when it comes to making pre-installed carrier apps removable by the user.

If you’re like me, you’re probably pretty into your Android device. You may have even toyed around with the idea of possibly taking a summer course at your local community college to make an app of your own, with dreams of one day publishing to the Android Market and “hitting it big.” Angry Birds “big.” [...]
