UK: 800/2600 MHz spectrum to go on sale late next year, 900/1800 MHz can be used for 3G
Spectrum is a funny thing. Who ever knew that you could put a price on air? To throw some figures out there regarding just how expensive empty space can be: the result of America’s auction for the 700 MHz band, which was nearly 2.5 years ago if you can believe that since it felt just…

LG’s application store just launched and Thomas Ricker’s headline for Engadget sums up the news quite well: “LG’s Application Store launches in places you don’t live for devices you don’t care about”.

How many of you use Skype? I bet many of you do. I count myself as a heavy user, but I’ve yet to pay the company a single dime. The call quality you get for free, depending on how much you’ve invested in your headset, is outstanding and makes regular phone calls sound like they’ve…

It was almost two months ago when T-Mobile USA introduced a trio of LG phones — dLite, GS-170 and Sentio — and now we’ve found out they are offering them on a discount.
