REVIEW: Samsung Transform – Sprint ID is handy, but is it enough for this phone?

The Samsung Transform isn’t like other smartphones recently reviewed by IntoMobile, which have been particularly exciting in the last few months. It seems like every week we are blessed with a new phone sporting the latest operating systems like Windows Phone 7 and Android Froyo 2.2, technologies like 4G and mobile hotspots, cameras with more megapixels packed in, faster processors, and excessively large screens.

REVIEW: Verizon ZTE Salute – Return to Basics

The Verizon Salute, ZTE’s first mobile phone on a major US carrier, is an acceptable alternative to the smartphone world.

How to Take and Upload Gorgeous Pictures Anywhere Using Eye-Fi and Your iPhone

Every time I’m walking around with my Canon G10 (and iPhone 4 in my pocket, of course) I think to myself, “I wish I could upload this photo right now.” Of course I could take the same picture again with my iPhone 4 (or Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 depending on the day) and immediately upload it to Flickr or Tumblr, but I would lose all the detail captured by the better camera.
