AT&T has released a small firmware update for the Samsung Infuse 4G and it’s not Gingerbread. Rather, the 14.5MB heavy download is a maintenance update that fixes some of the known bugs, improves stability and performance, and so on. I bet it hurts that you have to wait for the Korean company and AT&T to…
We’ve all heard about sexting and how children should be protected against that. Really it’s not easy to do that while not impeding on their privacy. Enter Protext Mobility, which AmberWatch Safetext made to do just that. What’s more, the application/service goes beyond sexting, helping parents protect their children from other potentially dangerous mobile activities…
If you own the Motorola Atrix 4G (which BTW is still a pretty solid device), you may’ve looked at Moto’s Entertainment Center bundle with a dose of envy. At almost $200 it was out of reach for many users, or at least not that many folks thought it’s worth the money. However, now that AT&T…
Windows Phone users on AT&T have a lot to look forward to this fall. With the coming of Windows Phone 7.5, also known as Mango, the carrier plans to update its current WP7 portfolio of handsets to the new software version. Additionally, it will be launching three new Windows Phone 7 handsets: HTC Titan, Samsung…
Six months ago, AT&T confirmed it would carry the Acer Iconia Tab A501 on its HSPA+ network. Well, AT&T over the weekend finally announced the tablet’s long-awaited launch.

For just $60 per month they’ll give you a SIM card that connects to AT&T’s network (H20 Wireless is a mobile virtual network operator) and gives you…
Want to grab the Samsung Galaxy S II from AT&T? You still can’t do it, but you can at least sign-up from a dedicated page and be notified when it starts selling. The carrier is obviously pressured by Sprint which got the head start for the device, hence they decided to do something about it.…
After being sued by the Department of Justice, AT&T and T-Mobile have a hearing set for September 21, where Judge Ellen Segal Huvelle expects the two companies to reach a settlement. The DoJ says that a merger between AT&T and T-Mobile would be anti-competitive, and would “remove a significant competitive force from the market.” Sprint, who…
AT&T has just announced a new smartphone called Huawei Impulse 4G, a low-end entry into Android and AT&T’s 4G market. The Impulse 4G will have a 3.8-inch screeen with 480×800 screen resolution, and running Android 2.2. It also has a 5 MP camera on the back with auto-focus, flash, and 720p video recording. Customers will be…
Late last month we saw several speed tests done in the Chicago area on AT&T’s as yet to be officially launched 4G LTE network. The results of those speed tests were disappointing to say the least, but we gave AT&T the benefit of the doubt since we know it’s not fair to judge something that…
