T-Mobile 3G Rollout: Only Voice
If you’re new here, you may want to subscribe to our RSS feed. Thanks for visiting! I was rejoicing earlier today when I found out that T-Mobile was going to start rolling out 3G services beginning with New York tomorrow (May 1st). But it seems my joy was short-lived because a new memo just [...]
Free Ringtones Delivered To Your Phone by Myxer
When I first saw this I was thinking the same thing you are right now. It’s a scam, or it’s a service, or some other ridiculous nonsense like ads bombarding your phone, but Myxer.com seems to be operating above board. If that’s the case then selection must be horrible; not so at all. In fact, [...]
Windows Mobile More Important Than Google’s Android
That’s what HTC seems to be claiming even though they are one of the front runners when it comes to devices running Google’s new mobile platform. According to msmobiles.com:

VITO Releases v1.1 Of EyePhoto
We covered a review of EyePhoto v1.0 earlier this month on the site when it was first launched and now, 1 month after the initial release, v1.1 is released. Due to a lack of change log or revision history, I am not too sure on the changes but this is what I have managed [...]

Fancy A Device From ETEN?
What has a VGA screen, 3.5 connectivity, SiRF Star III GPS chip on board and 256MB of ROM. It’s the ETEN Glofiish X800 and no we’re not giving it away. But Gear Diary is. You see, they just did a review of the device recently and even I guess because they got their device [...]

The Arcade: A Monthly Roundup of Freeware Games (April 2008)
When I was in college, there was an enormous uproar when late night comedian David Letterman left NBC, and moved his show to CBS. Everyone wondered whether the show would be the same. Would he be able to maintain what he had started? CBS was a different environment and culture. [...]

Farkle Dice, and Farkle (Definition) in general, is a game I had never heard of until SmartBox added it to the Launch Giveaway; I’m glad they did. I will generally divide games into two categories: 2-3 minute games that are great for taking a single short break, and ongoing games that you can play [...]

Acer Entering The Smartphone Market
Until recently, the only devices that Acer had that ran Windows Mobile were PDAs without phone capabilities. That looks to change with its recent acquisition of ETEN. Since that announcement was made last month, no one knew what Acer planned to do with ETEN but it looks like those clouds [...]
Another Finger Friendly Phone App: EasyPhone
As if you haven’t gotten enough choices for finger friendly phone applications, here’s another one called EasyPhone. The interface reminds me a lot of VITO’s Fun Contact but then, it seems all these finger friendly applications are very similar anyway. I think the main distinction that sets this particular app from others is [...]
