What did we tell you about getting your T-Mobile HTC HD2 online before they sold out… again? Following T-Mobile USA’s initial HTC HD2 inventory depletion, Magenta quickly restocked their virtual shelves and opened up sales through their website. We’re not trying to toot our own horn here, but we did mention at the time that…
HTC HD2, Touch Pro2 get Facebook Album hotfixes
HTC is known for releasing a number of hotfixes for their devices, as (I guess) requested by their users. Lately, we caught a hotfix for two of HTC’s Windows Mobile smartphones — HD2 and TouchPro2 — that updates the phone’s Facebook client, restoring the ability to view your friends’ photo albums. As usual, we advise…
iPhone tops customer satisfaction survey
Apple’s iPhone has bested Research In Motion, HTC, Nokia, Palm and Samsung in overall customer satisfaction, according to the latest survey from J.D. Power and Associates. The iPhone received top marks in every category except for battery life, which shouldn’t be a surprise to those who have tried to get through a full day on…
Google wants to go all out with Nexus One marketing
Google is a pretty good company but their greatest strength can also be their greatest weakness. This highly intelligent company of engineers lacks the common man’s touch, and this lack of emotional intelligence may have been the reason Buzz and the Nexus One haven’t been very successful. I’ll not focus on the mess that is…
HTC and Apple’s Patent Case to be Investigated by ITC
Apple and HTC have been in the midst of a legal row over patents lately, which has so far consisted of Apple issuing their press release without any prior contact to HTC and HTC flatly disagreeing with the case based on prior art. The 20-odd patents in question range the gamut from hardware (methods of…
HTC Incredible could hit Verizon soon
Well, well, well. Looks like we could only be a few days away from the release of the HTC Incredible for Verizon Wireless if you believe the screen shot above. Basically, this says that some Verizon stores already have the device on order, which means the handsets are in the warehouse but they can’t sell…
Patent firm acquires Sony and Nokia patents to sue HTC and RIM and Apple
As if HTC needed any more patent troubles to deal with, there’s yet another patent holding firm that’s come out of the woodwork to sue HTC and BlackBerry maker RIM for infringing on 11 and 12 patents, respectively. The patents at hand relate to mobile technologies that control how phone calls are connected, noise-sensitive volume…
HTC HD Mini and HTC Desire appear in O2 UK sales collateral
Nice and brief this one – the HTC HD Mini and the HTC Desire have been spotted making an appearance in the April edition of the O2 monthly magazine. This magazine is one that is effectively a polished-up sales brochure, which you’ll find in most, if not all, O2 stores. Anyway, moving on to big…
HTC Desire available in the UK, now or soon!
I’ll attempt to explain that slightly confusing title, first of all. A few days back, we were told that the HTC Desire would be coming via T-Mobile, with devices available in store on Monday 29th March. In the event, that turned out not to be case, though it would appear some people still managed to…
Evo: no voice and data at the same time
I don’t think you could call this utterly shocking, but like the Motorola Droid, the HTC EVO does not support simultaneous voice and data. Why someone would think that CDMA is somehow better on Sprint’s network is beyond me, but it’s still not good fun to hear that a smartphone like the EVO 4G is…
