Sprint HTC Touch Pro video walk-through

The HTC Touch Pro is fast becoming one of the most prolific Windows Mobile touchscreen smartphone to hit the global smartphone market in recent memory. The 2.8-inch VGA touchscreen display, 3G (EVDO Rev. A) connection, GPS, WiFi, 3.2 megapixel camera (autofocus with flash), and, of course, the slide-out QWERTY keyboard push the HTC Touch Pro [...]

Samsung Omnia arrives in Verizon’s stores

Samsung Omnia was spotted with Verizon’s logo on it about one month ago, but it’s still not officially released by the second largest US mobile carrier. However, BGR has come up with some live shots of the Windows Mobile 6.1 handset, straight from a Verizon retail store, which means that it won’t be long until the [...]

Velocity Mobile's 83 hits the FCC

Filed under: Handsets , Others , Windows Mobile , GSM , EDGE Guess what? You'll be able to use Velocity's weak-sauce 83 without any strongly-worded objection from the boys and girls at the Federal Communications Commission! Okay, okay, maybe that's not fair -- with WiFi and GPS, it does its job at the bottom end of Velocity's lineup -- it's just that when you compare it to the 103 and the 111 , it comes up a little short (ahem, QVGA display, EDGE radio, we're looking at you guys). We're not really feeling that gnurled back, either -- especially in light of the FCC lab's less-than-stellar photography skills -- but if it floats your boat and you're stationed stateside, you can start to feel a little less illegal now.

Samsung's Omnia found in the unforgiving wilds of a Verizon store

Filed under: Handsets , Samsung , Verizon Wireless , Windows Mobile , EV-DO , CDMA They're apparently not for sale yet -- stores don't even know what the pricing situation is -- but Verizon has starting shipping Samsung Omnias to at least some of its stores. For anyone not needing the global...um, "globalness" of the Saga or the QWERTY-ness of the upcoming Touch Pro , the Omnia certainly makes for an interesting option -- espeically in light of the TouchWiz support and the 5-megapixel cam. With units in stores now, it can't be long until we can actually buy these, can it?

Samsung Omnia makes official Verizon appearance

Filed under: Handsets , Samsung , Verizon Wireless , Windows Mobile , EV-DO , CDMA Not that we've any reason to be shocked here, but Samsung's Omnia is indeed coming to Verizon Wireless. 'Course, most everyone with any remote affiliation to Big Red is frenzied over that other phone today, but those with a soft spot for Windows Mobile 6.1 may want to give this one a bit of attention. You know the highlight specs by now -- a 5-megapixel camera / camcorder, full HTML browser and an expansive touchscreen -- but the nitty-gritty details are still being withheld. As of now, the link on Samsung's website tunnels straight to an error page, forcing us to be content with the knowledge that somehow, someday, this phone is destined for a life on VZW's shelves. Enlarged screengrab is after the jump.

Facebook Launches on Sony Ericsson’s Xperia Phone

Facebook, which is quite a hit on smartphones such as Apple's iPhone, is making a debut on Sony Ericsson's Xperia X1 phone as a panel. Panels are special interface mechanisms unique to Xperia; they allow phone users to interact with a specific web service or an application. With this release, Facebook is now available on the iPhone, Blackberry and Windows Mobile (almost) platforms. No Facebook on Nokia's Symbian or Google's Android -- not yet, anyway. I wonder how many people will actually end up buying the X1 device, which is about to go on sale. I returned the review phone earlier today so I don't know how this app, which you can download for free, actually works. But I do know you can use it to check status updates, friends’ profiles, pics and notifications. Facebook on the iPhone remains one of the best mobile web apps -- and even other versions of Facebook pale in front of its capabilities. ( Read: my X-1 Review .)

Need an advanced Call History app for Windows Mobile?

I do like the call history on my iPhone, mainly because it offers so much additional information than what I used to see on my Windows Mobile phones. Festinger Software responds to that with their Historia application that I caught over on Mobility Site. It more than doubles the call...

The iCEphone - is this cool? IS IT?

Wow. What’s better than a landscaped clamshell phone with full keyboard? How about a double-hinged landscaped phone with TWO keyboards! The iCEphone is such a beast.
