There is finally some good news for the owners of the Verizon locked Palm Pixi Plus as Big Red is rolling out the highly anticipated webOS update 1.4.5. Some of the owners of the Palm Pixi Plus from Big Red across the country have already started receiving the update which comes up with a number of bug fixes and the addition of PDK support.
Even Palm has the details of the firmware upgrade listed on its website and that is how we came to know about the pleasing gaming titles this update will add to the webOS laden handset. While the update will surely please the gaming fanatics, the Pre Plus owners also using VZW services will be a tad annoyed.
The reason is that the update is only going public for the Pixi Plus subscribers and the Pre Plus is arguably being ignored for now. The Pre Plus is also sold through AT&T in the US and even the AT&T subscribers will have to wait desperately for the update 1.4.5 without any clue about the arrival date.via devicenation
It is the kind of the day where upcoming cellphone image leaks are flooding the web and the latest one to be ‘unearthed’ is the Windows Phone 7 laden LG C900. It is important not to confuse this 1.3GHz laden smartphone with the E900 which too has been doing its fair bit of leaking on the web. The C900 is most probably the handset with which Microsoft’s Windows Phone 7 may get launched into the market to compete against the likes of the Android and the iOS in the fourth quarter of this year.
Talking about this smartphone, it will be blessed with all the top-notch integrations like a proximity sensor, GPS, WiFi, GPS, Bluetooth, to name a few. Although its screen will be on the smaller side (3.2-inches capacitive), the advantage will be a full slide out QWERTY keypad.
The grapevine is that this WP7 laden baby will be launched in Europe pretty soon and it will bear a price tag of $350.
The T-Mobile G2 is a matter of discussion with many smartphone enthusiasts and the images of the handset keep popping up on the web from time to time. The set of images to go public this time around is the official one, as these images have been picked up from the T-Mobile’s official site.
Factually speaking, we’ve had a lot of images popping up every now and then and what we will prefer is to know the specific release date of the ‘probably’ Android 2.2 powered device. It is also a hyped product because the G2 is featuring a 1GHz processor as well and these specs will gel well with the 3.7″ OLED display and the 5MP camera.
This seems a great day for the possessors of the Motorola Droid X from Verizon and there isn’t much explaining to do here as to why I feel so. That Blue Sapphire logo on the Motorola Droid X implies that the VZW locked handset can be rooted to run on Android 2.2, Sapphire AOSP 2.2 ROM.
The root did happen, but apparently the problem is that the Droid X cannot be loaded with a custom ROM as Motorola has ensured a better level of security this time around.
For the moment then, we will just have to be content with this achievement hoping that the ‘magical’ guys to do this will soon get the instruction set and stable build ready at the earliest.
We just mentioned a couple of days back that the Verizon version of the Samsung Galaxy S, Samsung Fascinate, will be available for pre-order on Best Buy beginning August 29 and Best Buy seemingly hasn’t disappointed us and the Big Red Fascinate hopefuls as well. Fascinate is indeed available for in-store pre-oder which just confirms the belief that the release is ever so near.
The grapevine is that Verizon will not hold back the Fascinate availability after September 9 which means that the long wait is finally coming to an end. It will also be a personal landmark for Samsung as the Fascinate availability will imply that the four big US carriers are all selling the Samsung flagship Android handset.
Once there existed a cellphone manufacturer we so dearly loved for innovating the webOS based devices, but Palm is now a name nowhere to be found-expect on the old handsets ofcourse. Though Palm is dead, the good thing is that its webOS is still alive and HP did promise that we will see devices in the future running on the webOS obviously bearing the HP moniker.
Now, all of a sudden, CTO of HP’s Personal Systems, Phil McKinney has been spotted in the wild with a cellphone like device and we are inclined to think-could this be the PRE TWO?
Phil was spotted with a number of other devices like a tablet and a wrist watch as well, but this of all drew maximum attention as we thought our Pre Two dreams have come true. [via: Mobile Whack]
You’ve probably heard a lot about calling phones from Gmail in the last 24 hours or so and therefore we believe there is no point discussing the process all over again. Instead, we wish to cater to a number of people who think this is some kind of a hoax, and that is probably beacuse they are too lazy to get in done in practicality, despite the fact that these calls are free in US and Canada apparently.
We’ve tagged along a video here to confirm that it is actually happening and instead of lazying around, it is time to try it out and also save some money at the same time. The only effort is to look for the Call Phone link in your gmail account.
