Tether turns 1 and celebrates with a contest
Tether, the popular software for sharing your phone’s data connections with your laptop, is celebrating their first year in business, and what a year it’s been. From not existing to being used by over 110,000 BlackBerrys, the launch of Mac and Bluetooth versions, the Android Beta software winning the Innovacorp I3 contest!
So what’s Tether doing to celebrate? They’re doing what any good tech company does! They’re giving away six smartphones, 3 BlackBerry, 3 Android each with the Tether logo. What do you have to do to enter? Head on over to tether.com/contest and sign up.
They’re also hooking up various BlackBerry and Android blogs with copies of their software to give away (and hopefully to a certain charming guru blogger *cough-hint *cough-hint who uses both BlackBerry and Android).
And if that isn’t enough, until March 16, Tether is available for only $29.99!
Big news to follow up a big year from Tether.
Happy Birthday Guys, from all the Gurus!

RIM Walks Us Through Recovering A Bricked BlackBerry
about 1 week ago - View Comments
Personally, I’ve never gotten a 507 error without forcing it, but I know people who have ended up with 507 errors or bricked BlackBerrys and had no idea why. One of RIM’s weak points has been educating carriers and subscribers on the 507 error. Pretty much anyone who calls their carriers tech support when their device is bricked, is
Android 1.6-powered LG Loop Arrives At Rogers
about 1 week ago - View Comments
Does Rogers need another low-end, old-software Android device? Like I need a hole in the head. Which isn’t very much (though, reading press releases sometimes…). Perhaps what they need to do is take the devices they already sell, like the Samsung Galaxy Spica, HTC Magic+, Motorola QUENCH et al, and UPGRADE THEM INSTEAD. Uhem. On a

These days, the topic of keyboards on mobile devices is a hot one.

Facebook v1.8.0.49 is now available in App World. I’m not sure if it’s available for all devices as of yet, but I just downloaded it on my 9700. The UI seems slightly cleaner than the previous beta/leaked v1.8.0.31. I haven’t really played with it yet so I can’t comment on any other findings or fixes.
