  • We haven’t seen a large leak for Verizon in a while. Now we have been graced with the companies road-map for new phones and over the next two months we will see seven “above average” handsets from Verizon. We had wondered when we would see those shiny pieces of glass from CES make it into our hands and now we know. So without any further rambling from me, lets get to the dates.

    Verizon Roadmap Leak. You may start planning your purchase now.

  • Not too long ago, Apple announced the release date of iPad 2, in just a few more countries, 25 to be straight-on.

  • Thats right, the new HTC EVO 3D on Sprint is THE most powerful, most amazing, and most eye-popping device ever announced. A dual core 1.2GHz processor runs America’s first 3D phone, and don’t worry, you will not be needing glasses to view your 3D content. Oh, and it captures and records in 3D as well.

  • We are less than a day away from the announcement of the EVO 3D on Sprint, and all I can say so far is “WOW!” Specs have been leaked for this amazing device, and they are intense. A dual core 1.2GHz processor will be powering this beast of a phone, and as the name says, it will have a 3D display. With a 3D display, it would be nice to have dual cameras for shooting and recording in 3D. They added two 5MP cameras on the back, recording in full 1080p HD in 2D and 720p HD in 3D, so that is amazing. We will be here tomorrow breaking the...

  • Despite the fact I follow technology news quite vigorously, I did not see this coming at all. AT&T has announced today that they will be purchasing the US’s secondary GSM carrier from Deutsche-Telekom (based in Europe). The companies say it will take about 12 months for the entire thing to go through, if it even does at all. There are quite the number of regulatory hurdles they have to go over. When it’s all said and done though, goodbye T-Mobile USA, it will just be AT&T. Only one GSM carrier for the entire country. Win-win situation? Over-all, it will cost $39 billion (cash and stock). Because the networks are both...

  • You may not use Myfi, but rather one of the other jailbreak tools that allow you to tether for free, but nonetheless, AT&T is essentially forcing you to stop. How exactly they know is beyond our comprehension, but they seem to be targeting the right users, ones with the software installed. If you are one of the lucky, or rather unlucky peers who do use free tethering, AT&T is going to force you to stop by making you pay for the service. They will automatically add a tethering plan onto your current plan at $45 dollars a month, a DataPro 4GB. If you are a grandfather user like myself and...

  • Its about time that Verizon gets this phone out the door. But is it too late? For me it is, then phone has been delayed so many times, I’ve lost most of my faith and interest in the phone. While it is the first 4G LTE phone on a major carrier, its dead beautiful, and is an total elitists phone, its just not going to be sliding into my pocket any time soon. Here’s why. First, My contract won’t be up until August, so here’s to hoping thats when the Tegra (more on that coming soon) launches. Second, the phone has been delayed way to many times, I don’t even...

  • Its about time. After tracking rumors that changed every hour, for weeks on end. We decided to wait for some real information regarding the Motorola XOOM, and now we have it. Motorola is confirming the XOOM WiFi only version for a March 27 release. What’s nice is, we finally know the price of the 3G-less tablet, a nice $599. Its nice to see Motorla make this cut in price, this way it might stand a chance against iPad 2… Wait, that’s already out, and I already own one. I’m glad for you Moto, that you managed to get this out the door, but you should have released it five or...
