Twenty-ten has been called the “Year of the Tablet” for some time now, but we’re already half way through the year and the only truly worthwhile tablet device that we have to speak of is the iPad and a couple of so-so Android tablets. But, there are tons of Android-, BlackBerry-, and webOS-powered tablets scheduled…
The search giant will be holding a Google Mobile event this Thursday, August 12, and it promised to show off some new features. Let the guessing games begin. The invitation only says that it will be “unveiling a couple of cool new mobile features.” I’d immediately think this would be for Android, but it could…
The Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini and Mini Pro both rely on its form factor to move some units so it shouldn’t be surprising to see these Android handsets get some custom shells. You can now get these teeny Android phones in gold or pink and both should add a little visual panache to your…

RepairPal could save you a lot of trouble and headaches when it comes to looking for repair shops, estimating repair costs and getting roadside assistance.
