Thu, 15 May 2008 01:48:18 +0000

Following on the cooked Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM that got "leaked" out for the Sprint Mogul not too long ago, it looks like Sprint has let yet another beta version of the Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM get "leaked" out to the ROM-cooking community.

FCC clears i-mate Ulimate 8502 for duty in the US

Thu, 15 May 2008 00:56:16 +0000

i-mate's Ultimate lineup of mobile phones is definitely a mobile enthusiasts wet dream. At least in theory. With no US wireless carrier-support and nary an FCC seal of approval to speak of, i-mate hasn't exactly broken into the US high-end handset market. So, no matter how high-end the i-mate Ultimate lineup may be, there's just [...]

Wed, 14 May 2008 09:08:33 +0000

Don't know have you noticed the HTC Diamond's virtual keyboard in one of the device demos, but I find it looks quite appealing.
