Next week’s CES show will bring a slew of tablets and ViewSonic will join the crowd by introducing a 4-inch Android tablet/phone hybrid, according to The Wall Street Journal. The device, which hasn’t been named yet, is supposed to be a 4-inch touchscreen display and it will run Android. I don’t know why that classifies…
We can’t wait for next week’s CES show to see the upcoming Motorola Android Honeycomb tablet and we’re seeing multiple leaks come out. We’ve already heard that it should be called the Xoom and we’ve heard that it won’t have 4G LTE support built in but AndroidandMe says it will be able to access this…
We’re big fans of the Novatel MiFi devices but we’re disappointed that there haven’t been any 4G versions yet. That may soon change, as the picture above could be the Sprint 3G/4G MiFi. The picture was found in an online forum and the “ROFL” that’s Photoshopped on it makes you question its credibility but this…
We were fooled to believe Skype will add video calls for the iPhone next year. Just before the year’s end, they’ve launched the feature making everyone just a little bit happier. As you would expect, the new feature allows you to make video calls to people on their computers as well as other iPhone and…
How nice of you to join us, HTC Thunderbolt, we’ve been expecting you. Actually, we weren’t expecting the Verizon-bound Thunderbolt specifically, but we knew something like this LTE-capable Android phone was due to show its face sometime soon. Today, Verizon’s first LTE device, poses for the camera in newly leaked product photos. Droid-Life managed to…
WiMax went live in San Francisco today for both Sprint and Clear, since they both share infrastructure, and it’s nice to see the tech hub getting a little 4G love. We already knew that it would be coming, but now San Francisco Bay Area residents can enjoy Clear 4G products like USB modems and mobile…
Earlier this year, AT&T decided to alleviate its network in the dense Times Square area of New York City with a Wi-Fi Hotzone. For the most part, it has helped a little in conjunction with beefing up its network. The carrier is now planning on taking things a little further by expanding its Wi-Fi Hotzone…
Good news for San Francisco Bay Area residents, Sprint 4G is now available in your locale! Right on time, the WiMAX service officially launched today in San Francisco, San Jose, Palo Alto and Oakland. Residents should expect 4G coverage similar to their Los Angeles counterparts who had their 4G service switched on earlier this month.…
LTE-enabled, mobile cloud-based gaming is coming. A company called Ubitus has recently demonstrated its GameCloud solution on DOCOMO’s LTE network and it looks promising. Basically the idea is that users with any handheld device, smartphone included, will be able to play high-end games. All the heavy stuff is processed on servers (in the cloud) returning…
T-Mobile is always cracking me up. In a recent commercial, the carrier pokes fun at the iPhone 4 and AT&T. Apparently, FaceTime – a video calling feature available only on the iPhone 4 – can’t be fully supported by AT&T’s network, hence its Wi-Fi only limitation. Fair enough, but wasn’t T-Mobile the one whining last…
