    G1 Emulator

    T-Mobile's G1 emulator is online, and playing with it is just like messing around with the not-yet-available HTC H1 Android phone.  Except for the phone part.The emulator is pretty cool, and honestly got me a little more jazzed to try out a G1 in person.  Don't get me wrong, I was jazzed already - but the emulator made me forget about the phone's perceived hardware shortcomings and instead focus on the Android user experience,...

    Phone Wars: Why do (some) people hate the iPhone?

    Why do people hate the iPhone?

    I got this question today via Facebook and thought it warranted some thought ... and all that thought warranted a blog post.  So I ask you, as you read on, what do YOU think?  Why do some people just seem to hate the iPhone (and Apple) so much?  Noah, maybe you can answer this for me: Why is it when people praise the iPhone, they're viewed as either blind fanboys, or on the Cupertino payroll, and when people praise 'any' other...

    Krave: VZW to sell Moto ZN4 touchscreen smartphone for $149

    Moto Z54 to VZW

    Motorla's MING series of Linux-based, touchscreen smartphones have been pretty popular overseas but never really seen the light of day here in the US.  Sure, you could pick up an unlocked GSM MING via CompUSA or an importer, but without carrier backing most Americans had no idea that MING was a phone and not *just* a dynasty from their history books. Looks like Verizon Wireless is aiming to change all of that with the introduction of...
