Congratulations on MMS and cut/paste, iPhone. Welcome to five years ago.
Aw, sorry, is that a bit snide? In all honesty, iPhone 3.0 was a pretty big deal and Will and I sum up our impressions in this week’s podcast. There’s a lot going on in the BlackBerry world, including the 9630 Niagara, the 8325 Curve and the contentious BlackBerry 9900. We had heard of a Bold with a touchscreen named Magnum, but this is the first we’ve seen of it, however some think it’s just a big hoax, based on spotting the old 8800 microphone. What do you say? Drop a vote in this week’s poll and maybe we can come to some kind of concensus. Our weekly giveaways continue, this time with skins from DecalGirl to five lucky commenters. Stefan will win the Plantronics 925 Discovery Headset from last week, but hey, try your luck again this go-round: just leave a comment and you’re entered.
There’s plenty more news after the jump!
