During a visit to AT&T’s Foundry Space in Plano, Texas, Stacey Higginbotham, a writer for GigaOM, asked if she could get a demo of the soon to launch 4G LTE network and the engineers were more than happy to let her run some speed tests. The numbers she got: 28.87 Mbps down and 10.4 Mbps…
Apple and China Mobile have reportedly come to an agreement regarding a 4G iPhone. This could mean that the next generation iPhone might have 4G capabilities for other networks as well, such as Verizon’s LTE network or perhaps even Sprint’s WiMax. It’s far too early to tell or to speculate, of course, but China Mobile…
The Samsung Infuse 4G for AT&T embodies the three directions that mobile phones seem to be headed – larger screen sizes, thinner bodies and more powerful processors. That’s right – the Infuse 4G manages to wrangle all three, and in a very usable package. Its 4.5-inch Super AMOLED Plus display is rich and vivid, though…

The next generation iPhone, which may or may not be called the iPhone 4S (I’m thinking iPhone 5), is drawing near and rumors are getting more intense. Earlier today, we heard a rumor that says the new Apple smartphone’s screen will reach from edge-to-edge and will no longer have a bezel. Additionally, the camera flash…
Verizon’s 4G LTE is the hotness right now, but it’s not without issues. It seriously drains battery life and there was an unexpected outage a few weeks ago that left users without the lightning fast network for more than a day.
