We thought it was only pre-orders that were beginning this week, but it looks as as if the T-Mobile myTouch Slide 4G is now available for purchase through T-Mobile’s online store. The non-contract retail price is set at $499.99, but inking a new 2-year contract will bring the total down to $199.99 after a $50 [...]

Those of you who can’t wait to get your hands on T-Mobile’s myTouch 4G Slide won’t have to wait much longer, as the official release date for the camera-centric Android smartphone has finally been announced. Online pre-orders will begin on Tuesday, July 19th, with general availability following the week after on Wednesday, July 27th. The price? $199.99 [...]

Shortly after tweeting that “big news” was on the way, T-Mobile today announced the launch of the myTouch 4G Slide. Designed and manufactured by HTC, the Android 2.3 “Gingerbread” device is claimed to sport the most advanced camera found on a smartphone. Featuring a backlit 8 megapixel camera with dual-LED flashes and 1080p video capture, [...]

Apple rumors have a tendency for being true… about 50% of the time. Here’s one, however, we’re hoping transpires: the next generation iPhone is being said to come with a 8MP camera, with the image sensor supplied by OmniVision. Further reports state that Avago Technologies may supply the power amplifiers for the WCDMA version of the [...]

Just saw this from the folks over at BerryReview (link to their article below). Someone in their forums mentioned a FREE BlackBerry app from the iBNuX Net team called Nux Shoot. What the app does is adds 2 items to your menu: “Timer 10 second” and “ Timer 5 second”. Once you click the menu option [...]

It seems like yesterday that camera phones were the hottest new craze, rocking .3MP of VGA goodness, pictures were grainy but identifiable; it was the coolest thing. Fast forward to 2010, Sony (being the innovative geniuses that they are) is introducing the 1/2.8-inch back-illuminated Exmor R IMX081PQ CMOS sensor (pictured on the left), which boasts 16.41MP [...]

Just wanted to quickly show off these shots I received showing off the new HDR capabilities in iOS 4.1. I’m told it shows up as a toggle, much like how flash is enabled/disabled. Photos will take an extra second or two to process and the original copy is saved (although that can be turned off). [...]

I was at a sci-fi convention over the weekend. It was my first one, so naturally I wanted many photos. My experiment was to use just the iPhone. The results? Not great. With iOS 3 (can we call it that, or is it iPhone OS 3.0?), the camera was slow, but some magic made nearly [...]

I love technology as much as the next guy. Even seemingly useless technology catches my eye; I want to be able to control my PS3 from my laptop, my car from my phone, my lights and speakers from my iPod Touch. But still, sometimes I see technological “advances” that I just don’t understand. Sony, makers [...]
