Though AT&T has yet to officially announce a release date to begin selling its version of the Samsung Galaxy S III, Droid Matters has noticed that when you pre-order on the AT&T Premier website, the handset is scheduled for arrival on or before June 21st. To clarify, AT&T Premier is a segment of the AT&T Wireless…
Spotify, the wildly popular music streaming service has just given its Android app a major overhaul. The new version of Spotify has been rewritten with full support for Android 4.o Ice Cream Sandwich and it brings a slew of new features including slide-out navigation, a new home screen widget, new sharing social features, 320Kbps streaming and…
Yesterday, Apple threw this little event called WWDC, where the tech giant showed off many new things, one being a revamped Maps app in iOS 6. The good thing about the revamped Maps app is its much improved look and functionality. The bad news is, not every iPhone user will get the chance to use…
Apple’s iOS 6 was released to the developer group less than 24 hours ago, and it’s apparently already been jailbroken, according to a TechCrunch report. MuscleNerd from the iPhone Dev Team announced via Twitter that he had successfully jailbroken a 4th generation iPod Touch running iOS 6, but noted that several parts including the third-party Cydia…
At the WWDC keynote yesterday, Apple announced it was moving away from Google Maps and showed off its new maps program, which will make a debut in iOS 6. Users who installed the beta noticed a familiar maps company in the copyright section of the new application, TomTom. Rumors of an Apple-TomTom partnership immediately swept…

Seton Hall University, which is about 15 miles away from New York City, it announcing that the entire class of 2016 will get a Nokia Lumia 900 for “free”. I say “free” because according to Seton’s website, they charge $16,350 per semester to educate full-time undergraduate students. That’s $32,700 per year. Considering AT&T will sell…
Sony Mobile Communications, which less than four months ago was known as Sony Ericsson, hasn’t exactly had an exciting 2012. Their new lineup consists of devices that were clearly designed before the merger was complete, and worst of all their portfolio utilizes chips that were meant to be put into 2011 smartphones, not 2012 flagships.…
Custom CM9 and AOKP ROMs are not reserved for select HTC One X versions (i.e. those with quad-core CPUs) any more, and now owners of AT&T’s version of the device can join the party, too. Needless to say, we’re talking about very first ROM builds, so you better be careful and have a spare device…
