Mobile World Congress 2010: I came, I saw, I walked away underwhelmed

Monday, March 8th, 2010

Three weeks ago today I, and about 50,000 other people, walked through the two towers that stand at the entrance of the Fira de Barcelona and attended the first day of Mobile World Congress 2010.

Developer with nickname “6Fg8″ from XDA-Developers.com made an interesting proof-of-concept application that basically turns the HTC HD2 into a metal detector. How you ask?

Friday, February 19th, 2010

Google would like you believe that the Nexus One was entirely their creation – the ultimate fruit of their Android loins – and ignore the fact that the Android superphone was developed and manufactured with a good deal of help from HTC. But, things could have gone differently if Sony Ericsson ( NYSE: SNE ) had accepted Google ( NSDQ: GOOG )’s initial request to build the Nexus One. According to statements made by a Sony Ericsson exec, Google first approached Sony Ericsson to stamp out the metal and plastic bits to create the Nexus One
