What do you know, I thought every single Windows Mobile device ships with handwriting recognition capability. Apparently, I was wrong as I caught an item from HTC’s support saying that the mentioned functionality has been added for two of their WinMo smartphones – Diamond2 and Touch Pro2. Of course, an update is needed, but it…
Nexus One caught on film, bares all
Every smartphone worth its salt deserves an unboxing ceremony and hands-on video. It just doesn’t feel official until we actually see the handset emerging from the packaging whence it came. The latest smartphone to get that official “feel” is none other than the Nexus One (aka Google Phone). Thanks to Twitter user Phillm, we have…
New HTC HD2 ROM Bears T-Mobile Logo
As if you needed any more confirmation that T-Mobile is getting the HTC HD2, a new ROM (version 2.03) primarily featuring tabbed document browsing is happily bearing T-Mobile’s “stick together” tagline.

HTC Espresso to come with revised Sense UI?
We’re pretty much clueless when it comes to the upcoming HTC Espresso. All we know is that it’s in the pipeline and that we’ll be hearing more about it at some early point next year – during CES or MWC. Now, thanks to the Italian website hdblog.it, we have the first screenshots from the device.…

HTC and Tata DoCoMo launched what probably is the best Windows Mobile phone on the market – HTC HD2 in India. The device will be sold bundled with 500MB of data per month, which comes free for the first 6 months. Kinda nice, though I’m not sure why the period isn’t longer. Anyway, you probably…

No ‘Donut’ Love for Rogers HTC Dream and Magic
Rogers HTC Dream and Magic owners may be feeling a bit busted after this bit of disappointing news. According to a posting on HTC’s website, which was then confirmed by Rogers, the HTC Dream and Magic will NOT receive an official OS update past Android 1.5. No donut here. HTC is not currently planning any…

Rogers’ star holiday lineup, the white BlackBerry Bold 9000, the LG Eve, Sony Ericsson X1, HTC Magic, and Nokia N86, have been on sale for under a hundred bucks the last month or so, but just in time for the final push, they’ve knocked them all down to $0.99 on contract (yep, pretty much free).…
WIND Mobile Shop is Now Live!
Alright, Canada, here are your new options from wind Mobile: $15, $35 and $45 a month, with add-ons available for international calling and voicemail. The catch? Many of the features depend on you being in a wind home zone, the details of which are still hazy right here. wind’s coverage isn’t going to be crazy great at…

What do you know – this is the second time Verizon Wireless is offering “buy one get one free” for the HTC DROID Eris. We (at least me) haven’t caught it the first time. Anyway, what this means is that if you need two Android handsets, you can grab the MOTO DROID or DROID Eris,…
