iPhone 4G Leaked Pictures!
Feb 9th
iResQ has released pictures claiming they have the parts of the next generation iPhone 4G. As you can see it’s a bit taller then the last iPhones. But bear in mind, these pictures can be fake, and just for marketing purposes by iResQ. There seems to be a reflective surface over the phone’s speakers, which could mean it’s getting a camera. But don’t believe anything you see until it’s officially announced.

HTC Incredible caught in the wild with Android 2.1 + Sense UI goodness
Feb 8th
Pocket Now got themselves some pictures of the HTC incredible which is destined to be on Verizon’s Network. It’s an Android 2.1 phone with Sense UI slapped on top of it for eye candy and added functionality. Looking at the specifications, we would like to call this the HD2 of Android 2.1 smartphones but then the Nexus One had better specifications ( more RAM ). But is the Incredible really incredible?
Android 2.1 coming to Droid?
Feb 8th
Droid users rejoice! I just got informed that Android 2.1 is now being tested for the Motorola Droid. And from the looks of it, it will be a lot like the Nexus One update. I think Verizon finally listened to the many complaining users about getting 2.1 on the Droid, but bear in mind nothing is for sure, any last minute changes can occur, and the estimated time of release is still unclear.
BlackBerry twitter clients: Seesmic or UberTwitter?
Feb 8th
We can’t deny the fact that Twitter is growing everyday. Twitter is now attached to our everyday life. That’s why it isn’t limited just to the desktop, it’s also on everyone’s phones now. You can access it via your data connection ( use the the mobile website ), or just download a twitter client. One of the most popular smartphones, BlackBerry, also has many twitter clients. The top two are Seesmic, and UberTwitter. I wanted to add OpenBeak to the list, but it’s just horrible. Let’s have a look at the two apps and how they compete with each other in terms of various features.
Google’s Parision Love 2010 Super Bowl commercial is simple but effective
Feb 8th
Google’s Super Bowl ad is mild and uncontroversial. In other words it’s boring. But just like everything Google does, this is simple and effective. It actually shows the reality of our lives – we’re all so dependant on Google in our daily lives, whether it’s on our desktops, notebooks, netbooks, smartphones, dumb phones or even portable personal computers like the iPod Touch. This ad portrays the effect Google has on our life, from searches to Maps, translations and learning new things. If this doesn’t make you smile, nothing will. Or maybe the Motorola Devour Super Bowl commercial with Megan Fox will.

The Motorola Devour Super Bowl ad with Megan Fox in a bath tub is a Geek dream come true
Feb 8th
Android – 1, iPhone – 0. If you thought Super Bowl ads couldn’t get anymore interesting you were wrong. We didn’t have Megan Fox holding a phone in her hand, in a bath tub, taking pictures of herself and wondering about the consequences – until now, thanks to Motorola. They decided that it was the best way to advertise Motoblur and their newest Android smartphone, Devour (announced by Verizon a few days ago) and we couldn’t help agree less. Even though this phone doesn’t have top of the line specifications, ( my Motorola Cliq is way better ), Megan Fox could sell quiet a few of these Android 1.6 handsets ( no 2.1? really Motorola? ). Hell, I’d buy one of these if I could Twitpic Megan Fox though.
