TheCellularGuru’s Top 5 Hottest Phones for the Holidays

Bell has the Vibrant, Rogers (if they ever finally launch it) has the Captivate, and now Telus is releasing the Fascinate, thus rounding out the big 3 and their relationship with the Galaxy S family of phones. The 2.1 powered bad-boy has all the same features of Bell’s Vibrant, including a front facing camera for [...]

So the BlackBerry Style will be RIM’s next new device to enter the market with OS6. One of the things that RIM does really well is give consumers a choice. BlackBerrys come in a bunch of different form-factors and there’s really something for everyone. It’s also pretty cool when a device initially releases in more than one [...]

It was bound to happen sooner or later. Shortly after this summers “Antenna-gate” saga was resolved, Apple started offering Bumpers to customers at no charge through their free case case app program. (which recently expired) Low and behold with all this talk of Bumper this and Bumper that, Apple has finally decided to trademark the [...]

Google Maps for BlackBerry has been updated from version 4.4.0 to 4.5.1. There’s no changelog available and I haven’t noticed any additional features.

Generally we’ve always viewed roaming as the biggest rip-off in the world of cell phones. Here in Canada when you cross the US boarder Rogers charges $6.14 per megabyte for data usage. In the world of 3G this can add up quite fast, if you head overseas your data bill will be $30.00 per megabyte. [...]

BlackBerry Messenger has been updated from 5.0.1.39 to 5.0.1.41. There’s no changelog as of yet, but if you’d like to give it a go, you can find it here in App World.

Ahh yes, the ever popular upgrade process and how it has changed over the times. When I first worked for Rogers it was every 12 months, elating customers who’s devices would crap out within the year. Than, last year it was bumped to 24 months for all smartphone devices (non-smartphones were exempted from this), customers [...]

It was just yesterday that word got out of the successor to the less than popular Palm Pre, the Palm Pre 2 coming to Canada. Well, another piece of interesting information was released today via HoFO (Howard Forums) showing an incorrectly spelled “Rodgers” as a carrier that will be housing the new device. Hopefully the [...]
