I’m live blogging from my phone so there won’t be any photos until later tonight.
The nerds here are getting very territorial over seats at the press conference. It’s pretty ridiculous.
What can we expect to hear from Sprint CEO Dan Hesse? My guess is pricing and availability for the EVO 4G.
Those of us at the event will be …
Looks like this whole iPhone 4 secret has gotten away from Apple full force, with another sighting coming from Vietnam. This one’s got three and a half minutes of video to go with it although just like the Gizmodo iPhone, this one appears to have been remotely disabled as well so we can’t see what the actual operating system looks …
We just got our hands on the Garminfone from T-Mobile. It’s slated to ship in June for $200 after a 2-year contract. We’ll post our initial impressions tomorrow along with photos. One notable worth mentioning now is that the Garminfone will most likely ship with Android 1.6. T-Mobile says they’re working on upgrading to 2.1, but for now …
Sprint has a pretty decent headstart in the next-generation 4G mobile data race, although the company’s decision to go with the WiMAX standard over the LTE standard, which many people consider to be a better long term option, has drawn some criticism in the past.
During Sprint’s earnings call today, CEO Dan Hesse was asked about …
The story goes something like this. Back in 2007, USA Today published an article that said, “AT&T has exclusive U.S. distribution rights for five years” concerning the iPhone. That information proved to be difficult to officially verify and since the first iPhone hit the market, it seems that we’ve been hearing rumor after rumor …
Sprint announced in March that it would follow suit and make available the Nexus One in the near future. Seven days later the HTC EVO 4G was announced. In late April Google announced via the Nexus One blog that Verizon customers were better off ordering the HTC Incredible, a “cousin of the Nexus One that is similarly feature-packed.” …
AT&T has just announced that the Palm Pre Plus will be hitting store shelves on May 16. The price tag is a bit high considering Verizon is offering the Pre Plus for $50, but AT&T is giving away free Touchstone charger kits for a limited time (in stores only). No word on when the Pixi Plus will find its way onto AT&T.
The NPD Group has just released its Q1 2010 numbers and Android has slipped into the number 2 slot behind RIM and ahead of the iPhone. Based on strong sales of the Droid, Eris and Incredible from partners like Verizon Wireless, Google’s mobile OS claimed 28 percent of the market while RIM retained the crown with a 36 percent share. …
Sorry to dash your hopes, Verizon customers, but you probably won’t be getting the iPhone this year. Why? Well, according to Brian Marshall, an analyst at BroadPoint AmTech, AT&T finagled a new deal (only for six extra months) with Apple by cutting data plans for in half to lock in the iPad. But Marshall doesn’t necessarily have the …
I wrote a little piece about Google’s latest Android app Goggles Translate for the magazine, which you can read about here. That’s all well and good, but you’re better off watching this video instead.
Newsflash! Plenty of people barely use any of their voice minutes any more. It’s all texting, e-mailing, and webbing (webbing, right?) nowadays. Virgin Mobile knows this and, as such, will soon offer an unbelievably aggressive BlackBerry plan.
Since Virgin Mobile is a prepaid operator (it uses Sprint’s network), you’ll have to …
Intel’s Atom CPUs have been all over the netbook space but the processor manufacturer wants in on the lucrative smartphone and tablet arenas as well. With the introduction of the Z600 series of Atom CPUs, Intel is promising processor speeds up to 1.9GHz for tablets and 1.5GHz for smartphones while maintaining long battery life and the …
