A little while back I posted on the launch of an iPhone App for the popular Auto Trader magazine in the UK. Key amongst its features was numberplate recognition, to assist with looking for cars to buy. We got an update today telling us that the DVLA (Driver and Vehicle Licensing Agency) has requested that…
HTC Legend can be yours before Easter with eXpansys!
We all know the HTC Legend was slightly ahead of the HTC Desire in terms of release dates – not that much, but enough to make a difference, say over a holiday weekend – much like we have this weekend. I’ve already had the very excellent HTC Legend for very brief Software hands-on and Hardware…
HTC Desire is available in the UK – or is it?
Peeved, I am. Do you want to know why? I went to the local T-Mobile store today, to try and get 5 minutes with the HTC Desire. I was expecting to have to fight my way through a busy shop, but instead it was empty. Not good, from first observation. Speaking to the sales assistant,…

Orange reveals Cheryl Cole is queen of the mobile
When it comes to searching for news, celebrity gossip, music and video on our mobile phones, one name dominates the Orange UK charts – Cheryl Cole. X-Factor gossip, a new album, and strife with Ashley has rocketed the Girls Aloud star into the public consciousness, and onto our mobile phones. According to the latest research from…
HTC Desire is available in the UK today!
Yay! Finally (or Final-ee-ee as CeCe Peniston would say) the HTC Desire is for sale in the UK, across a gaggle of e-tailers, and also T-Mobile stores. So, the big question is, did any of our readers charge out and get one? I was desperate to get five minutes with the device for initial impressions,…
QWERTY keyboard devices compared (video)
