Although I don’t own a Windows Mobile device, I do admire Vito Technology’s efforts to add some of that “iPhone charm” to smartphones and PDAs running the Microsoft’s mobile OS. Naturally, the mobile software developer primarily targets touchscreen-equipped device (HTC Touch) owners, who may want to improve the overall usability of their respective devices. Earlier…
AT&T prepping Motorola Q9 with WiFi?
Sure, HSDPA is great and all for on-th-go web-surfing, but with AT&T’s spotty 3G coverage, it’s not always the ideal option for getting your internet-fix. Unfortunately, AT&T isn’t to keen on giving its customers any WiFi connectivity that could drain the company’s coffers of data-revenue. Or are they? With the AT&T Tilt 8925 (HTC Kaiser)…
traxAx goes mobile; Enables simple video editing on your Windows Mobile device
Don’t know have you heard about traxAx, but it’s a free and sooo easy-to-use Windows application that allows you to seamlessly create music and video content. And, as you can figure out from the title, they’ve decided to mobilize it. Windows Mobile was selected as the preferred platform, and with the newly launched traxAxMobile, they…
T-Mobile prepping HTC Touch Dual to launch as the MDA Touch Plus
In another move that rivals HTC’s own penchant for naming/renaming their handsets with more model-names than we care to (or can hope to) ever remember, T-Mobile has announced that they’ll be launching the HTC Touch Dual as the T-Mobile branded MDA Touch Plus. T-Mobile tends to rename their HTC-smartphones with the “MDA” moniker, so the…
Verizon to pick up HTC Libra as SMT5800 or UTStarcom XV5800; to have 3G
There isn’t much here that we didn’t already know (other than the 3G bit, more on that later), but we thought you HTC Libra (S720) fans out there on Verizon’s network would appreciate an update on the hybrid keypad/keyboard device’s status with Big Red – especially since it was supposed to have launched in August.…
FCC gives us a glimpse of the HTC Clio
What’s this now? We’re usually keen on HTC’s future handset plans, but this one seems to have flown in under our radar and has already been approved by the FCC. The HTC Clio, folks. It’s a GSM/EDGE/HSDPA device with WiFi, Bluetooth 2.0, and a pair of cameras (a higher pixel-density shooter for the serious stuff…
Windows Mobile update to add higher-resolution widescreen display support
Well, it’s about time. We’ve been stuck with our 320 x 240 WinMo resolutions for so long that it’s almost surprising that Microsoft has added higher-resolution widescreen support. We say almost because the bumped-up resolution support is pretty much the most logical and simplest feature update that Microsoft could have included in the new Windows…
FCC unveils E-ten Glofish X650 with FM transmitter
In case the recently revealed E-ten Glofish X600 didn’t rock your world, the up-and-coming smartphone manufacturer has pushed their new E-ten Glofish X650 through the FCC’s testing process. We had speculated that the Glofish X600’s spec-sheet failed to include 3G, nor a VGA disply, because they were saving those features for the Glofish X600+ (much…
Microsoft’s Windows Mobile Mobius event in Amsterdam details an impressive update to WM
Microsoft holds an annual event called Mobis where Windows Mobile enthusiasts from around the world come to get briefed on what is hot, new and even get a sneak preview of what we will be looking forward to in 2008. Windows Mobile 7, code name Photon, was not shown, but an update to Windows Mobile…
JGUI brings the look of Windows Vista to your Windows Mobile smartphone
If you’re like us, you’re already tired of Windows Mobile 6.0’s interface. Sure, it was spiffy and exciting for a while, but our attention span (as far as our mobile phones are concerned) is brutally short. Suffice it to say that it doesn’t take all that long to become bored with the latest and greatest…
