Android 1.6-powered LG Loop Arrives At Rogers
Aug 24th
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 lighter note, Rogers has released the very attractive-looking LG Loop for a low $29.99 on a three-year term, and $249.99 outright. What you get is a brushed aluminum frame with a 3″ 320x480px screen, GPS, WiFi, 3MP camera, and Android 1.6.
Would I recommend the equally-cheap Acer Liquid e over this device? In a heartbeat. But will you listen to me?
You’d better.

First hands-on with Windows Phone 7 Series
Mar 1st
Remember some time ago in the not so distant past we spoke of the impending launch of Windows Phone 7 Series? How it could just be the be all end all of the Windows Phone 7 OS and would drop close to the end of 2010? Well, guess what, in true Engadget fashion they brought Microsoft’s Aaron Woodman on their “Engadget Show” and he decided to do a bit of teasing.
The above picture is the a Windows Phone 7 Series production prototype, the first ever shown to the world, but thats not all he did. He also also went on to describe what we can expect from the device in a sense of look and feel.
Here’s what he had to say:
it’s just a hair thicker than an iPhone or Nexus One, there are dedicated hardware camera, volume, and power buttons in addition to the back, home, and search buttons dictated by Windows Phone 7 Series, and we noticed a five megapixel camera with a flash on the back, along with a headphone jack
What do you think? Does this spark some interest to find out what Microsoft has in store? Or lost all love for the Windows Mobile platform? Leave us a comment!
