Thanks to one of BGR’s anonymous sources, today we have a bit more information to report on the first Android 4.0 “Ice Cream Sandwich” smartphone from Google. Purportedly dubbed either the Google Nexus Prime or Nexus Prime, the device is said to be built by Samsung and feature some rather jaw-dropping specs, including a large 720p [...]

4G, we’ve spoken about it numerous times on this blog solely based on how excessively it’s used as a marketing term by carriers – both in Canada and the US respectively. Well it turns out Rep. Anna Eshoo, a Democrat from Palo Alto, Calif., and the ranking member of the House Subcommittee on Communications and [...]

  I have mentioned umpteen times in past posts about my thoughts on the marketing over-use of the term “4G” in Canada; to put it bluntly: it’s ridiculous. Alas, it exists and isn’t going anywhere for a while. With this ongoing battle, also exists the fight to get devices to market that can be branded [...]

Anything with “4G” garners its own attention – so, Samsung recently announcing the Galaxy S Infuse 4G should get you pretty excited. Well, fellow Canadians, it’ll be made available exclusively through Rogers this summer. This nifty device is the true next generation device from Samsung running on Android OS 2.3. It will be Rogers’ first [...]

Oh LTE, I love you and all, but how your name is overused agitates me; alas, this post isn’t about that, so I will get right down to what it is. You all know by now that national LTE deployment is coming to a Canadian city near you by the end of 2011 – epic. [...]

The enhancements will result in greater signal strength, increased device selection, and faster internet speeds in Nova Scotia (NS), [...]

4G, one of the most commonly used and mis-understood marketing terms in the mobile industry today. While we could get into the argument of what is “true” 4G, and why the name is being over-used more than Charlie Sheen’s “Winning”, that isn’t really the point of this post. This morning, Telus invited a few of [...]

Editor’s Note: This will be my final contribution for TheCellularGuru.com. I have had the opportunity to work with a number of incredible people in my time here, and I am enriched, humbled and grateful for the opportunity.

When I dumped my iPhone 4 for a shiny Nexus One, the one regret I had was not having my movies and TV shows to stream from home. Sure, there were methods that could fashion a sling around the problem, but there was no cure for Air Video on Android. Behold, Plex. Previously available for [...]

During Rogers’ earning call this morning, CTO Bob Berner talked about Rogers’ multi-year commitment to building an extensive, Canada-wide LTE (Long Term Evolution) network. LTE is the name of the technology that sits behind the 4G moniker that is becoming more pervasive throughout the developed world. Besides announcing a localized trial in Ottawa/Kanata last October, [...]
