It was just yesterday that we reported Mobilicity was the first discount carrier to introduce a sub-$200 off-contract Android device to Ontario with the Motorola Spice, and just like that here comes another. WIND has officially launched the Alcatel Tribe today, which joins the Motorola XT720 as another Android 2.1 powered device in WIND’s lineups [...]

News has come out that Mobilicity will be adding another Android device to their already pretty solid lineup of handsets, and I must admit a hat tip is in order. Back in the Spring when the device was first launched exclusively with Rogers, many scrutinized Sony Ericsson for releasing such a feature rich device on [...]

The wait is finally over! Customers who hopped the X10 bandwagon early and have patiently waited for their long over due upgrade can finally rejoice; Android 2.1 has finally been made available to you. It’s no Froyo, but it’s the best thing phone will get. And it took a dang long time! Included in the [...]

The Acer Liquid E has arrived at Fido making it the first Android device to join Fido’s lineup. The device will cost $30 on select plans with a 3-year Fido Agreement and Data add-on. It will come with Android OS 2.1 (Éclair) pre-installed which will be upgradeable to Android 2.2 (Froyo) when it becomes available. In [...]

Recently, with the OS war heating up, I find myself being asked daily, “CellGuru, which phone should I go for?” This could easily be one of the hardest questions to answer, because everyone’s need in a phone is different. With the impending launch of the Galaxy S Captivate, Rogers has taken it upon themselves to release [...]

It seems as though Rogers is following in Bell’s footsteps a bit, having decided to re-launch the 2.1 powered Liquid E on their discount Fido brand. When I say following their footsteps, I’m not implying that Bell ever had the Acer Liquid E, don’t get me wrong. Bell was the first carrier to launch an [...]

Rogers’ Android users must be over the moon today; less than 12 hours after the Magic+ update was announced, Rogers has confirmed via their @RogersBuzz twitter handle that the 2.1 update for the Spica is available for download as well. Two Android devices updated in one day…someone must have received a raise recently. Ironically, this [...]

Last week it was announced that I had been selected by Samsung to be part of their “Mob!lers” pilot project, thus becoming a Samsung product evangelist.

Some of the best Android devices get the shortest life span, and it seems as though the very popular HTC Legend is seeing its final days as well. According to the above inventory screenshot, due to supply constraints, the HTC Legend is being discontinued from Bell’s lineup of Android phones less than 3 months after [...]
