Tim Cook, COO of Apple and Steve Jobs’ right hand man, is rumored to be eyeing the CEO position looking to be filled by Hewlett-Packard. Ever since Mark Hurd’s immediate resignation at HP, the company has been looking for new leadership. What’s the likelihood that Cook would actually leave Apple for HP? I say it’s…
Earlier, a rumor out of TechCrunch suggested Amazon was launching its own App store for the Android platform. Hot on heels of this exciting information is a second rumor that suggests Amazon is also working on an Android tablet to complement this supposed app store. The details are sketchy and they come from a single…
Sonim, the company behind the world’s toughest phones in the world, is preparing to launch a new product that promises to once again redefine the category (it’s not their marketing pitch – it’s my personal opinion).

Details on this Windows Phone 7 handset have been sparse, but thanks to a series of advertisement videos from JP Incorporated, who presumably did the music for the ads, we now know that the Mondrian is headed to AT&T.

Those who thought that Dell, with their Streak and Aero, were done in the mobile space are sorely mistaken. If you’ve kept up with Dell, you know that there are quite a few upcoming handsets and tablets coming our way. We finally got our first glimpse of one such device, the Looking Glass, a 7…
A rather plain, but informative list of specifications has leaked for the HTC Trophy, a Windows Phone we’ve seen live as well as in the Global Certification Forum.
