We’ve only seen a few pictures of Motorola’s upcoming Morrison, most of which have been plastered with watermarks, but these design sketches from some European design bureau show off the full 360° view. The specs are still fairly mysterious, but we aren’t expecting much from little Morrison here. However, if you find yourself suddenly enamored…
Nokia N86 Available August 22?
Nokia’s next big handset, the N86, will apparently be hitting the American streets around August 22 according to warehouse stock information. The docs also list a suggested retail price of $499, considerably lower than what was previously stated. A firmware update just went out today, likely the last before we start seeing the devices on…
Samsung: Sub-$100 Android Phones Available “by Next Year”
Man, that Reclaim launch was just full of interesting off-hand comments, wasn’t it? Casey Ryan, a Samsung product development manager, stated confidently that “”by next year, touch-screen phones with full web browsers running the Android operating system will be available for well under $100.” Presumably this means more from Samsung, but that would be putting…
Can’t get laid? Looking to get sexually assaulted? There was an App for that, but Apple pulled out
Exactly one month ago today I wrote about an application called “Sex Offender” for the Apple iPhone that would use the device’s built in GPS to show you where registered sex offenders are living. This application wasn’t free, which may have very well been the reason it was pulled. Under California law you’re not allowed…
Apple’s future iPhones may tattle on you!
Everyone hates a tattle-tale. We’ve been taught to hate them since kindergarten. Leave it to Apple to patent a technology that might one day have your iPhone selling you out to your local Apple store. A newly discovered patent application from Apple outlines a technology that would register “abuse events” and keep a record of…
Facebook app for Android on its way?
While the official word on the matter is… well, actually, there is no official word on the Android Facebook app. There’s a web-app, but Android users still don’t have a native Android Facebook app to play with. But, thanks to a newly leaked set of screenshots, there’s little doubt that Facebook is indeed working on…
Samsung AMOLED Device Coming to Sprint?
David Owens, Sprint director of customer acquisition, let slip that a new Samsung device coming their way will be hosting an AMOLED display. Of course, we don’t have any other details, but considering the Samsung i7500 has an AMOLED display and we heard Sprint would be getting an Android phone this year, it’s a likely…
Apple Rejecting E-book and Reader Apps Too?
Word has it that dictionary apps aren’t the only ones having a rough time with the iPhone App Store approval process these days – now e-books and e-book readers are purportedly being blocked because “this category of applications is often used for the purpose of infringing upon third party rights. We have chosen to not…
WinMo-powered Motorola A3300 caught in the wild; Heading to China?
A new Motorola all-touchscreen device has been spotted in the wild. It’s the Motorola A3300, which we’re hearing is heading to China all in its Windows Mobile glory. Details are scarce at present, but we know this baby will be equipped with a 5-megapixel camera with LED flash, as well as touch-sensitive buttons bellow the…
Motorola ROKR coming to an iDEN network near you?
Details are slim, but Boy Genius Report has gotten their hands on an image of a Motorola ROKR slider that is apparently headed to an iDEN network in the US. The Moto ROKR musicphone you see here is likely on its way to Sprint or Boost (or both) sometime this year. The iDEN segment sorely…
