The weekend came and went with as much as a whisper of it going online. Thankfully, the wait is over and you can now head on over to the Motorola Moto Maker and order a Moto X to suit your own style for use on … [read full article]
Most of us tech-heads know which device or technology sparked our interest first. It might have been something you owned as a child or an entirely fictional gadget from Star Trek. For me, the idea of being able to talk to someone miles away on the phone without having any wires connecting you seemed totally impossible. I had a fascination with mobile communication devices from a young age. After that fascination, we tend to – sort of … [read full article]

If there’s one service I’ve been intensely jealous of watching the U.S. mobile scene from the UK, it’s Google Voice.
