Do you want the convenience of using your Windows Phone 7 as a storage device of sorts? Or perhaps you want the simplicity of transferring or loading up on files without dealing with additional or proprietary software. In either case, it seems Windows Phone 7 can be enabled as a USB mass storage device, just…
There has been little beyond negative news for Nokia as of late. Over the late summer and early fall, it was nothing but the exodus of executives followed by horrid reviews of its flagship device, the N8. Today we caught wind of news that there were quality control issues with the N8, and so units…
We’re still waiting patiently for Apple to release iOS 4.2 to the masses, but right now developers are getting a taste of 4.2.1 as the GM build has just been released. It’s a pre-release version with the build number 8C148 and it’s available from the iOS Developer Center as we speak. Apparently, there is a…
It almost sounds like something a street racer would do, but there may be a very slim chance that Apple will use carbon fiber for the iPad in the future. One of the main complains of the iPad is that it’s difficult to casually hold. While its shape, design and construction is a thing of…
Google recently sent out a notification about the Android Market getting some changes, and they have arrived in a big way. The Android Market publishing interface has been hit with several big changes, and the assumption is that the market itself is going to be updated very soon, too. Anyone who owns an Android device…

On Apple building a phone, Steve Wozniak said that the company worked with a popular Japanese company in 2004…
We first really caught word of the HTC Knight back when its release date was leaked, but didn’t know a whole lot about the handset. Recently, a trademark application was uncovered showing HTC’s intent to grab hold of the name, “HTC Shift 4G.” We didn’t think much of it in terms of its relation to…
Verizon customers, listen up! The Motorola Droid X is now just $99 at Costco. Not bad, right? Of course, you’ll have to be a Costco member if you want to shop there, and last time I checked it’s about $50 a year to be a member. But if you want to sign up at Costco…
A little late to the game, AT&T now has its very own MiFi Mobile Hotspot. It’s perfect timing for AT&T who recently announced that eighty percent of its network now has HSPA+ coverage. Verizon, Sprint and Virgin Mobile aren’t the only ones with these pocketable data cards now, so if you’re on AT&T and you…
When asked earlier this year about its 4G or LTE efforts, AT&T said that it would first focus on building out its HSPA+ network, or its fastest high-speed broadband option. So far it seems to have paid off as I’m seeing up to 5Mbps download speeds in certain cities. It’s not too shabby when I’ll…
