The new applications, set to be released later this fall, rock several neat features, including: New map management and update capabilities – allowing users to pre-load only portion of the maps they’ll actually use, freeing-up the space for other things.

SPB Software keeps bringing its SPB Shell 3D UI software to new platforms. After Android, the company is going for folks with Symbian^3 smartphones such as the Nokia N8, C7 and E7. If you’ve been reading our previous articles on SPB Shell, you know it replaces the phone’s default homescreen with a 3D interface from where users can quickly access various phone functions, favorite contacts and apps, as well as run widgets. Android users seem to especially love what SPB Software has done, with SPB Shell Android downloads generating $750,000 for the … Read more
Alaska Airlines updated its iOS application, bringing few neat features to the mix. The most significant new feature is the ability to check in and access your mobile boarding pass within the app, removing the need to carry any paper on your trips. Moreover, you can use Alaska’s app to track flight status and boarding information, create text or email flight alerts, select and change seats, create a parking reminder, add notes for hotel and car reservations. In addition, there’s the access to “My Trips” for viewing multiple flight itineraries, … Read more
Good news for those of you looking to grab RIM’s first tablet, BlackBerry PlayBook. Thanks to Best Buy you can get the 7-inch device for up to $150 off. The 16GB and 32GB versions are now available for $50 less – $449.99 and $549.99, respectively. The best deal, however, is when you grab PlayBook with 64GB of built-in storage – it too (like the 16GB version) costs $549.99, which is $150 off of its regular price. As far as I can tell, buying the BlackBerry tablet doesn’t make much sense … Read more
While Windows Phone adoption is a bit stale, quality handsets running the operating system certainly aren’t lacking. HTC, known for its great hardware and eye for design has done it again with a pair of new Windows Phones, both of which aimed at different groups. The Titan is the real showstopper of the two Windows Phone handsets. Shipping with a massive 4.7 inch display, the size a lone may be quite the turn off for some but more than welcomed to others. Only to be outdone by the recently announced … Read more
Just when you thought the location troubles in the mobile industry were finally over, Microsoft is now facing a class action lawsuit for allegedly tracking the location of Windows Phone 7 users without their permission. Apparently, when a user decides to turn off all location services on their device, Microsoft ignores the request and proceeds to store location data. Rebecca Cousineau, a bold Windows Phone 7 customer, claims the camera application in particular transmits the latitude and longitude coordinates of a device when in use. The lawsuit states Microsoft built the camera … Read more
Verizon Wireless announced that the Motorola Droid 2 will finally get an update to Android 2.3 Gingerbread and all its glory. The carrier didn’t announce a specific date for the roll-out to commence, so Droid 2 owners should be on the look-out for an over-the-air software update. Android Gingerbread will bring a lot of new features to the handset. Many of these features aim to improve the current experience, rather than trying to add to it. Some examples include the new active task manager, which automatically kills any processes that … Read more
This isn’t much of a surprise given how adamantly Sprint has opposed the AT&T, T-Mobile merger but a new Sprint-commissioned study said that the potential mega-merger could lead to jobs losses. AT&T is saying that the merger could lead to up to 5,000 new jobs in the United States but the study, done by Professor of Economics and Director of the Center for Economics & Public Policy at UC Irvine, said this is likely not the case. One of the executive summary bullet points said: The merger may or may … Read more

To no one’s surprise, Toshiba just unveiled its latest Android tablet offering, the Honeycomb 3.2, 10.1-inch AT200. When we describe this tab as ultra slim — we mean it. The new Toshiba tablet measures in at a remarkable 7.7 mm thick, the Toshiba AT200 comes in as one of the thinnest Honeycomb slates yet, making even the once slim Galaxy Tab 10.1 look like a fatty. Under the hood is a 1.2GHz TI OMAP 4430 CPU, 5MP and 2MP cameras, and up to 64GB of on-board storage. The new slate … Read more
I’ve been doing a lot of thinking about tablets lately and I’m genuinely curious: What’s your favorite tablet and why? If we’re going by sheer sales numbers, I’d imagine many of you would say the iPad, as it has sold more than 22 million units and pretty much kickstarted this whole category. The original iPad also had the market to itself for nearly a full year (yes, I’m ignoring the Galaxy Tab). But now we’re in an age where nearly every company has a good or great tablet out. The … Read more
Nielsen just released the latest statistics on smartphone usage in the United States. Slowly but surely, smartphones continue to take over the entire mobile phone industry. As of July 2011, 40 percent of all mobile phones in use are smartphones. The other 60 percent are feature phones, but that number shrinks with every day that goes by. Nielsen also broke down that 40 percent of smartphones to find operating system market share. Android grabbed hold of 40 percent of all smartphones. Right behind that is iOS with 28 percent. RIM’s … Read more
For about a month we’ve known HTC’s plan of nine upcoming Windows Phone 7 Mango devices. Today, we believe HTC may have something brewing. It’s widely expected the Taiwanese manufacturer plans to announce several new smartphones, including the HTC Omega (a Windows Phone 7.5 device with a single-core 1.5GHz CPU), the HTC Eternity (another Windows Phone 7.5 device with a huge 4.7″ display), plus potentially the HTC Runnymede; which is a beast of a phone sporting the latest 1.5GHz dual-core Snapdragon chip and Android operating system. Checkout the full specs of the Eternity … Read more
U.S. carriers have been stocking up on RIM’s various new BlackBerry models in preparation for the back-to-school season, but they’re not done yet. We’re still waiting on Verizon’s version of the new all-touch BlackBerry, but some internal documents are suggesting the Torch 9850 may be available to preorder customers September 8 – a scant week away. The full retail rollout should be done by September 15. We had an inkling that Verizon would be launching the phone, and the last batch of leaked dates suggested a launch today, but a … Read more
