Breaking news, information, and analysis on the latest mobile phones and mobile technology
The Google Nexus One, my personal favorite Android phone and my first non-Nokia purchase in what feels like half a decade, was put out to pasture prematurely for reasons that many in the mobile technology community have yet to understand. The goal of the Nexus One was to offer consumers unlocked mobile phones, or for…
The security issues RIM faces with other countries continues as it proposes a solution for India. After the headaches from the UAE’s decision to ban BlackBerry services, along with Saudi Arabia, RIM has offered India some access to its services, but it doesn’t seem to be good enough. The Indian government wants full, unrestricted access…
RIM is probably hoping this isn’t becoming a trend, but after the UAE and Saudi Arabia said that BlackBerry was a security liability, Lebanon may be following suit.

True, these are beneficial qualities for any condom, but when I use these adjectives I’m using them to describe a new iPhone 4 case from the good people at CAZE.

Looks like my good bud Kevin over at CrackBerry is going a little nuts with the BlackBerry Torch 9800 these days… and with good reason. The Torch is ushering in a new era of BlackBerry goodness. A new OS is on-board (BlackBerry OS 6), and a new slider form-factor is front-and-center… The vertical slider (or…
Every time I read about the Nokia N8 I can’t help but think to myself how awesome would be if it simply ran Android. The camera is bad ass. HDMI out … rock. Full Dolby Sound support, even better. But Symbian? Do I really want to go back to that? Kicking and screaming, maybe. Apparently…
In a world of ultra violence, sheer clumsiness, and forgetfulness when it comes to such simple tasks as plugging your mobile phone in to charge, the newly announced Samsung E2370 X-treme, yes with a hypen between the first two letters, stands above the rest as a mobile phone for our generation.

It’s not only the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 that’s coming to AT&T. Apparently, one other SE device will take the same route – Vivaz. Unwired View’s Vlad Bobleanta caught a page on Sony Ericsson’s website talking about “AT&T’s version” of the device that comes with a slightly different 3G radio, singing on 1900MHz band (as…
