We’ve cleaned up a little and, hopefully, you like what you see.

So many of us discount Blackberry these days thinking they have fallen so far behind in the smartphone game they might never be able to catch up. The Blackberry 9780, launching today is a lot more evolutionary than revolutionary but perhaps the old adages “if it isn’t broke don’t fix it” applies well. The Blackberry 9700, predecessor to the 9700 was … [read full article]

Magenta is coming out swinging yet again with another shot at the AT&T network. I have to say I am loving the new marketing approach and there is one moment in the commercial where the AT&T “person” revs the bicycle and it just cracks me up. Though I have to ask, how many people are just watching these commercials for Carly? Come on…be honest. [read full article]

Just a quick note as the site undergoes a little maintenance tonight, it’ll be down for about an hour and then back with some small changes to the look! Most importantly, we’re … [read full article]
I have to admit a little Blackberry envy for the first time in I don’t know, a long time as I watch Aaron unbox the Blackberry 9780. Perhaps it’s just a little sentimental value for the Blackberry of old when BBM rocked my fingertips and I used to have a Transformers theme right after the first movie came out.

Right now the HTC HD7 and the myTouch4G could arguably be considered the two hottest devices on the T-Mobile network. Thanks to the boys at Wirefly who’ve compiled almost 14 minutes comparing many many aspects of the two devices.
