The aging Palm Treo 700 platform has apparently gotten some ROM-update love on the down-low. Palm has pushed out two new ROM updates to its Verizon Palm Treo 700p and Alltel Palm Treo 700wx devices with nary a peep. The Palm OS-powered Palm Treo 700p for Verizon gets a radio ROM update that is said to [...]

It’s clear that the Apple iPhone and iPhone 3G have been the most sought after handsets in the US smartphone market for some time now.

The ability to blog on-the-go is at once a blessing and a curse. Mobile blogging (or, moblogging, as it were) opens up so much in the way of productivity, but it also puts a kibosh on all "away from the computer" excuses.  Double-edged swords like this are commonplace in the mobile space. With the Palm Centro [...]

While we're still waiting for the next-gen version of the Palm OS (Nova), you may want to use some of the older Palm OS apps on other, non-Palm OS powered devices. Thanks to StyleTap's Palm OS emulators you can do that on various platforms. Back in February, we saw they're thinking about porting their work [...]

If you ask us, we're done listening to Palm just talking about their Palm OS 2.0. We want to see the Linux-based revamp to the so-old-it's-senile Palm OS before Palm's mobile platform fades from our radar. In an effort to keep us all interested in Palm's overhauled mobile OS, the company's CEO, Ed Colligan, talked up [...]

Telstra is bringing the hugely popular Centro smartphone to Australia. Already sold in one million units, the Centro is bringing all the power of a smartphone in a small, yet somewhat stylish packing — all with the full QWERTY keyboard.
