IntoMobile Podcast: The Signal

Episode 6 of IntoMobile’s Podcast, The Signal, is on the air!

Not many headlines this week, so Will and I go over a bunch of things spinning around the rumour mill, including iPhone 3G price cuts, Samsung Glyde being taken off of Verizon’s shelves, and the BlackBerry Pearl Flip coming to Rogers. Plenty of attention goes to the flurry of BlackBerry 8900 Javelin Curve pictures that have been showing, as well as speculation about the upcoming Windows Mobile 6.5.

Take a listen behind the jump!
