Earlier today I brought a little bit of insight into what Microsoft’s KIN is all about. Or, at the very least, who helped mold the devices and software running behind the latest Windows Phone platform.
Let me be very clear about this – the KIN does not compete with Android, the iPhone, Palm or BlackBerry devices. Think of the …
During my meeting with T-Mobile last week, Andrew Sherrard, the VP of Production Innovation, informed me that first generation myTouch 3G owners will soon get an update that modifies the vanilla Android UI to match the updated UI that T-Mobile has built for the myTouch 3G Slide including key features like the Genius Button sans hard …
I hinted at the myTouch 3G Slide the other week and earlier today in our Mother’s Day Gift Guide and now it’s finally official.
(More on Techland: Unboxing the T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide)
It won’t be available until June, but the myTouch 3G Slide is the perfect (and I’m not joking about this) smartphone for every member of …
Hot on the heels of Steve Jobs’ Thoughts on Flash post from last week, wherein the Apple CEO made his case for why app developers shouldn’t use third-party cross platform development software, the New York Post is now reporting that “the Department of Justice and Federal Trade Commission are locked in negotiations over which of the …
Brian J. Hogan, everyone. A round of applause are in order.

AT&T and Apple really threw everyone for a loop in January when they announced that the 3G iPad would be sporting a micro SIM rather than your standard SIM card that’s been around for quite some time. My own brother was wondering if he could somehow fashion the micro SIM so that it would fit into the normal SIM card slot on an iPhone, …
I don’t know if I’ve ever read anything longer than a sentence or two from Steve Jobs, but he pulled out the big guns with a 1,653-word post on Apple.com called Thoughts on Flash.
It’s been no secret that Apple’s opted to embrace HTML5 over Flash and the Apple-versus-Flash tiff has spilled over into the public arena, most …
HP has announced that they will acquire floundering Palm for $1.2 billion at $5.70/share. A steal considering how profitable Palm can be with HP’s distribution channels and cash flow. A press conference is set for 5PM ET, which we’ll be covering live. After rumors that Palm CEO Jon Rubenstein would soon be outed it appears as though he …
Here’s a quick update on the whole iPhone saga for your enjoyment. You’ll recall that over the weekend, a special task force raided Gizmodo editor Jason Chen’s home and took most, if not all, of his electronics equipment as evidence that “tends to show that a felony has been committed or that a particular person has committed a …
RIM has tapped the Black Eyed Peas’ Boom Boom Pow to show off its upcoming BlackBerry 6 operating system. A fashionable business lady, a man in a suit, and a kid at school all dance behind the transparent interface and push various buttons. It’s all very hard to watch. The final few seconds with the three of them in a B-Boy stance is the …
The question of whether or not Gawker Media’s $5,000 purchase of a misplaced next-generation iPhone would result in legal backlash has been answered by a recent police raid on Gizmodo editor Jason Chen’s California home.
The search warrant cited probable cause to search for property that “was used as the means of committing a

It seems that Google’s own flagship Android phone, the Nexus One, won’t be coming to Verizon after all. The ordering page used to list the handset as “coming soon” to Verizon, although today shoppers are greeted with a message attempting to persuade them to purchase the soon-to-be-available DROID Incredible instead.
