T-Mobile myTouch 3G preorders now shipping, arriving, being touched

Filed under: Handsets, HTC, T-Mobile, GSM, EDGE, HSDPA, UMTS, Android If you’ve preordered one o’ them fancy new myTouch 3Gs, check your mailbox, front porch, back door, administrative assistant, or dirty, thieving neighbor — because it might be there. T-Mobile said that preorders would be shipping at the tail end of July, and sure enough, some folks are starting to get lucky; plebes without preorders will still need to wait until August 5, though, so, you know, either sit there and drool or shout nasty remarks about how you’d rather have a Hero in the meanwhile.

This August, the HTC Touch Pro 2 & Samsung Gravity 2 head to T-Mobile

Posted under Editorials on Tuesday, 28 July 2009 by admin

You’ll have two more T-Mobile cellphones to pick from beginning next month. There’s the HTC Touch Pro2, which still doesn’t have an AT&T release date (so T-Mo can lord that over AT&T), and the Samsung Gravity 2. All it takes is a quick glance at the photos to understand what the phones are about.

Problem is, they’ve posted screen shots, and they’re clearly QVGA — an instant fail.

Early Android 2.0 "Donut" build available, up and running on G1

Posted under Editorials on Sunday, 26 July 2009 by jack

Filed under: Software, HTC, T-Mobile, Android Android’s official code repository has been updated with a fresh load of Donut stuff in the past day or so, and as you might imagine, the dev community is already having a field day with it. Early reports show that all of the features demoed at I/O this year have made it into this cut in one form or another, including universal search, text-to-speech, and system-wide multitouch with gesture support, allowing users to draw symbols on the screen to trigger actions

Samsung’s Omnia Pro B7610 previewed

Posted under Editorials on Saturday, 25 July 2009 by admin

Filed under: Handsets, Samsung, Windows Mobile, GSM, EDGE, HSDPA, UMTS, HSUPA At a glance, Samsung’s recently-announced Omnia Pro B7610 seems like a sweet hunk of Windows Mobile love — especially if you’re cross-shopping it with the Touch Pro2 — but is there more than meets the eye? GSMArena recently put a prerelease unit through its paces, and it’s not a perfect situation by any stretch; first off, apparently not very pretty in the flesh, owing in part to its girth and in part to the weird red battery cover. The resistive touchscreen isn’t great and the OLED display washes out in sunlight (as they typically do), but on the plus side, the QWERTY keyboard is said to be stellar and it seems that Sammy’s done a great job of completely concealing WinMo 6.1’s sad, sagging skin with TouchWiz.

Sprint’s Dan Hesse says Android coming to Sprint this year, is glad to have waited

Posted under Editorials on Friday, 24 July 2009 by jack

Filed under: Handsets, HTC, Sprint, Android While speaking at Fortune’s Brainstorm: Tech event in Pasadena on Friday, Sprint CEO Dan Hesse apparently got all kinds of verbal when it came to Android and his carrier. The honcho (and TV commercial star) remarked at the industry conference that he was “Glad we waited on Android,” adding “The reviews say now it’s ready for prime time. It wasn’t when it first came out.” While we knew Sprint had interest in Android phones (and potentially some forthcoming models), we hadn’t heard a peep about timeframes, and the last thing Dan had to say was that he thought Googlephones weren’t quite ready for prime-time
