Thanks to the folks over at Google, you and I can officially make calls from our computers to mobile phones (and landlines too)… for free!
Three days ago, Google launched its newest service via Gmail’s webclient. It allows you to make and receive calls to and from the US and Canada. To make calls, you use [...]

Yesterday, Microsoft announced the Kin series of phones, formerly known as ‘Project Pink.’  The Kin One and Kin Two are the brainchildren of Microsoft’s acquisition of Danger a few years back.  These two new phones aim to “socially connect people”, specifically teenagers.  They’re based off of Windows Mobile 7, but have a special UI (much like what [...]

I’ve been following Microsoft’s Project Pink since it was just a code name. Pink was supposed to save Microsoft’s phone division. It was supposed to be its holy grail, its fountain of youth. As it gets closer to today’s unveiling, however, it seems more and more like another Microsoft dud, another Vista, another Zune. In other [...]

It’s finally here!  The Motorola Droid, Verizon Wireless’s flagship Android device, got the highly vaunted Android 2.1 update.  Well, some phones at least.  At noon today (March 30th), 1,000 people received a notification urging “the lucky ones” to download the update; it seems 9,000 more people will receive the notification by midnight tonight.
After those lucky [...]

Today marked the start of CTIA 2010.
It was a long day, full of announcements, keynotes, speeches, romance… well, OK, not romance.  But if you were wondering what went down, we’ve got you covered.
The Day One Keynote featured Ralph de la Vega, CEO of AT&T Mobility and Consumer Markets, who spoke about all the advancements the [...]

If you haven’t been living under a rock for the past six months, odds are you’ve heard of the HTC Supersonic. And, if for some reason you have been living under a rock, the Supersonic is Sprint’s first 4G phone.  It’s also the world’s first 4G phone. So, when Sprint officially announced the phone today, [...]

Microsoft just went ahead and provided us with a tiny bit of info with regards to Windows 7 and Server 2008 updates.

Surprisingly, Server 2008 R2 has captured most of the hype surrounding OS updates.  A RemoteFX feature is supposed to be the “special sauce” on the Remote Desktop tech included in Windows Server 2008.
With this [...]

We will begin at 9 am EST.

Although the folks at Opera’s chances of having their software released officially, via legal channels, are slim to none (unless we see some sort of Opera/Apple payoff),  the company still announced a Press and Partner Preview for Opera Mini at the Mobile World Congress, with an iPhone debut nonetheless.
It’s pretty safe to say this is [...]

Hello Moto!  After being down and out for a number of years (well, their phone devision at least), Motorola has come back with a vengeance.  In just over a year’s time, they’ve introduced the Cliq, the Droid, the Backflip, and now the Devour;  it’s amazing how much they’ve accomplished.! The Devour is the third Verizon phone [...]

Well, two days before Apple’s announcement of their ‘latest creation,’ Palm and Verizon had a reason to celebrate.  Palm released their own latest creations, namely the Pre Plus and the Pixi Plus.
Why ‘Plus’ you might ask?  Well, the Pre Plus has no center ball, which, as a Pre user and supporter, I can say is [...]
