One of the best (and worst) parts of every trade show is the tease of the forthcoming devices being previewed. While it’s hot to sit and gawk at them — maybe even play around with a super-fancy new feature that the world hasn’t seen before — more often then not they are enclosed in some [...]

10.1″ screen? Check. Dual-core processor? Check. Thinner than the iPad 2? — I really hope you are following the trend here, but for those who aren’t — check! Today at Orlando’s CTIA conference, Samsung held their much anticipated press conference — where after weeks of teasing - they finally announced the two newest additions to their [...]

It really does seem as though there is a new wireless conference around each corner. Now that CES and MWC are both in the past, the next event is the CTIA conference in Orlando next week. Being said, what’s a conference without a lil’ teaser video to get us salivating over what’s to come? Today’s [...]

At a Q&A session tonight in Toronto, Mobilicity CEO Dave Dobbin confirmed rumours that the new entrant AWS wireless provider will be bringing over the currently US-only Nexus S to Canadian soil. He also intimated that Rogers, Bell and Telus would be getting their own variations, but assured listeners that there would be a distinct [...]

‘Lo and behold! The long-awaited upgrade to Android 2.2 has been officially released for the Rogers Galaxy S Captivate. Now, don’t expect an Over-the-Air update, as this is done with the very-clunky Samsung Kies software (Windows-only). Nonetheless, the wait is finally over, and it’s great to see all the carriers update their respective versions of [...]

OK, this is pure speculation, but I think it’s fair time to talk about it. At the Mobilicity Christmas Party in early December, I had a chance to talk to to CEO Dave Dobbins about the company’s plans for 2011, and he was very excited. He said that they have a great lineup planned, including [...]

There have been a lot of interesting phones released today at CES: Samsung’s Infuse 4G, Motorola’s Atrix 4G, HTC’s Intercept 4G, all for AT&T. Now, AT&T runs on the same frequency bands as Rogers, Telus and Bell in Canada and this means some fun things for us up north. Firstly, Motorola has confirmed that the [...]
