Joel Comm, founder of InfoMedia Inc. contacted me early this morning with some interesting news he wanted to share with the public… and in specific… to help app developers around the world. Joel has developed a #1 application in the App Store. The app has only been around for a few weeks, and already the…
2009 Named ‘Year of the T-Mobile G1 Paperweight’
Even during these tough economic times, HTC appears to be doing swimmingly well. At least that’s all we ever hear in reports from around the web. So, when I noticed today that HTC CEO Peter Chou was quoted as saying the G1 should sell over a million units this year… I wasn’t too surprised at…
Hewlett-Packard Releases HP iPrint Photo in the App Store
The folks at Hewlett-Packard have released a brand-new iPhone app called HP iPrint Photo. I have to say, I’m not surprised at all to see this new offering from HP, especially after the launch of The KODAK Gallery App last week. Perhaps HP was trying to beat KODAK to the punch and they were delayed……

BlackBerry Bold OS 4.6.0.216 Hunted and Captured in the Wild (Here we go Again)
Only two days ago, I had posted that a new OS for the BlackBerry Bold 9000 was spotted in the wild. In a bit of unsurprising news this evening/morning, it seems as though a new OS has already been hunted and captured for the BlackBerry Bold 9000. This time around it’s version 4.6.0.216 of the…
iPhone Nano Concept Images Emerge
Looks to be like the featured, or at least the most talked about rumor for the upcoming Macworld conference is going to be the so-called ‘iPhone Nano’. I touched on it a bit yesterday, with news of a case manufacturer already publishing pages on their website for the rumored device. Well wouldn’t you know it,…
Google Punishes Staff With Free HTC Dream Devices Instead Of Usual Monetary Holiday Bonus
What the!? Huzza? Wha? No monetary Christmas bonuses for Google staffers this year!? That’s right, even the ever-powerful Google is feeling the squeeze of this worldwide economic tumble. Instead of the usual $$$ bonuses that have been a wonderful tradition, Google is ‘trying something different’. Every Google staffer will receive a brand-new HTC Dream phone…
iPhone Nano Coming to Market in the New Year?
As you can see in the screenshot above, case manufacturer XSKN have a section of their site labeled ‘iPhone Nano’. Now, this could simply be a typo, perhaps they meant to put ‘iPod Nano’… But the description found on that page leads me to believe otherwise. For what it’s worth, I couldn’t actually find any…
On-Screen Keyboard to Hit Android in January 2009
Talking to most T-Mobile G1 users… they are almost all unanimous that the one thing they wish the device had was an on-screen ‘virtual’ keyboard, a la the iPhone or the BlackBerry Storm. While the slider form-factor is awesome… I can see it being a pain in the you-know-what having to slide it out for…
Nokia ‘Gold Arte’ To Join the 8800 Arte Series
I have to admit, Nokia isn’t my brand/area of expertise, but when I noticed this device… I first thought… ‘BLING!’… and then I thought, I’ve got to write about this one. Looks luxurious. Nokia has added a new model to their 8800 Arte series. The new model (it’s a slider) is called the ‘Gold Arte’…
