No! Droid Does Not Need iTunes

I’ve listened to the Apple fanboys crow on about how the Motorola Droid doesn’t have iTunes. They say it’s “Missing the experience” of iTunes and purchasing music in the iTunes Store. I have a question. Why would a wireless phone need to connect to anything to get content? It’s a wireless phone!

Review: Motorola Droid

BlackBerry Storm 2 Pictures

I didn’t even know there was going to be a BlackBerry Storm 2. Apparently there is. Check out the pictures here.

BlackBerry: Enable SMS Icon

I was playing on a friend’s BlackBerry Curve, and spotted an SMS icon. “How’d you get that?” I asked. There was a setting that I sure didn’t know about. Messages > Options >General Options > SMS and Email Inboxes > Separate.

$99 For a Refurbished iPhone? Sure!

When it comes to refurbished products, many people shy away from them. They don’t want a product that has had problems in the past. For me though, I prefer refurbished. Heck, I’m even considering buying a refurbished Vizio HDTV soon. Refurbished products are cheaper and usually go through more testing than a new product.
Now that [...]

BlackBerry Storm To Be Released On Nov. 21st At $199

Verizon just sent me a message that says that the BlackBerry Storm will be released at a price of $199. I was skeptical at first, but I had a chance to try this device out for myself, and now I think it might dethrone the iPhone as the top smartphone. Especially at the price of [...]
