Latest articles & newsUnboxing and quick overview of this cool little VCAST messaging phone. Touchscreen and QWERTY. And it's so small! I've been playing around on Facebook this week, setting up a PhoneDog.com page and generally looking into ways to get the Dog out to more people via social networking. So when I read Engadget editor Ryan Block's recent post throwing his hat into the ring to head up Motorola's mobile phone division I figured what better way to assess his chances than by starting a Facebook group to support him (Facebook account required to view).
I've never met Ryan, and for all I know he kicks... Kevin over at CrackBerry keeps giving us the goods on the forthcoming BlackBerry 9000. If you recall, he got himself a working pre-production unit off of eBay and has been testing and reviewing it over the past week or so. Now he's got video up of the new user interface, and it's got me wondering if a BlackBerry just might be in my future after all. Slick UI, QWERTY goodness, and push Email? Sounds like a winner to me.
Check it out! If you read my blog you know I've been waiting on this one awhile now. The first live photos of Sony Ericsson's forthcoming "Paris" smartphone are online, and if you ask me they look good. The proof will be in the pudding - if Paris' touchscreen isn't responsive and easy to use, then it won't matter how good it looks. But I'm really liking the idea of a touchscreen slider with SE's compact QWERTY layout.
Also, it looks like Paris will sport a 5MP camera (with flash, I... Hands-on and in depth with the new Samsung Glyde for Verizon. Touch screen, QWERTY, VCAST ... it's a crazy new phone. Part one looks at the menu system, touchscreen, QWERTY, and messaging. Look for Part 2 of the review where I will review the Web, VCAST, VZ Navigator, and more! What’s Good: Touchscreen and Full QWERTY Keyboard in Compact Body; Clean Menus and “Croix” User Interface; 2MP Camera with Autofocus and Flash; GPS with VZ Navigator; Full HTML Browser; Good Sound Quality
What’s Not Good: Touchscreen Can Be Difficult to Use, Especially Around Edges and Using Web Browser; Slightly Thick Profile; No D-Pad
Bottom Line: Samsung shrunk the F700 down to a cool, compact size in making the Glyde. The slide-out QWERTY board is handy and surprisingly comfortable... One whole day earlier than I expected, Verizon Wireless dropped the Samsung Glyde upon us. This touchscreen and QWERTY-board handset packs a boatload of features into a relatively small Blue body that's a slightly shrunken down take on Sammy's F700 Ultra Smart.
Glyde gives you a 2.8" touchscreen with haptic feedback, side-sliding QWERTY, 2MP camera with auto-focus, flash, and video capture, GPS with VZ Navigator (location based services), and full HTML browser. Wait,... Part two of a two-part review of LG's enV2 messaging phone for Verizon. In this part: GPS on location in San Francisco, Gossip Girl on VCAST, and more. Part one of a two-part review of LG's enV2 messaging phone for Verizon. In this part: How to text from the front panel, VCAST Music, and Mobile Email/IM.
So check this out: Apparently some BlackBerry 9000 pre-production samples turned up on eBay, and before RIM could get all of them pulled off, Kevin from CrackBerry.com bought one. And he actually got it in the mail. So awesome.
Being the pillar of the blogosphere that he is, Kevin tested, photographed, and reviewed his secret new toy and posted the results for all to see. Check out Part 1 of his very in-depth look at the next-Gen Blackberry over on CrackBerry. ... Wow, Sprint's trying to steal some of that Microsoft-Yahoo! merger thunder, huh? First they hit the headlines as a possible acquisition target for Deutsch Telekom (T-Mobile's parent co.) and now this.
According to the Wall Street Journal (says CrunchGear), the US's #3 mobile carrier is looking to get rid of Nextel after a 2+ year marriage that didn't really do much good for them. Nextel lost almost three and a half million subscribers in '06-'07 and according to CG they're... It's a great day for T-Moble subscribers in New York. The carrier announced that the company has taken the first commercial step in the rollout of its third-generation (3G) wireless network by launching its UMTS/HSDPA network in New York City.
T-Mobile plans to roll out the high-speed data network in major cities throughout the year and be up and running in areas where most subscribers currently use data services by the end of the year.
The 3G network allows much faster download speeds for... |
