Some users on the Apple support forums discovered that at night – roughly between 1am and 2am – their iPhone was uploading some data back to Apple. The amount was as high as 73MB at one point – and obviously since AT&T has new limited data plans, this may be [...]

Microsoft already announced that LG was among the hardware partners that would be producing the first wave of Windows Phone 7 devices. Now, LG has also commented on that situation, saying that they’re planning to have “a couple” out before the year’s end. Nice.

Although most who want one can’t find one (protip: Amazon.com has Droid Xs in stock right now), that hasn’t stopped Verizon from still heavily promoting the Droid X. Several BlackBerry (and other phone) users on Verizon reportedly got some video text messages from Verizon that promoted the Droid X.

The good folks at iSuppli have done a tear down of the Droid Incredible, the sexy Android device on Verizon, made by HTC. They found that the device is very similar to the Nexus One/HTC Desire. That makes some sense considering Google’s reaction to the Droid Incredible when it came [...]

Folks have wanted to compare the iPad and Kindle since they first came out, despite them really being in different markets. Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos agrees with my assumption, and he told the Wall Street Journal that that’s why he didn’t go with a touchscreen or color display for the [...]

We know that several Wall Street investors have voiced concerns about Google’s “pet projects” including Android. Some of the Gordon Gekko types don’t see how a free product like Android (among others) could end up making money for the company. Google faced some criticism in the Wall Street Journal earlier [...]

Don’t tell me I didn’t warn you a few weeks back about this sort of attack, folks! Since even the App Store, which so many of us assumed was basically unhackable (and truth be told, the actual iTunes stores were never hacked, at least not to our knowledge), was affected [...]
