Windows Marketplace Update

With the launch of Windows Mobile 6.5 on Tuesday one of the exciting new features is the Marketplace (app store).

It feels like windows phone users have been waiting forever for this and its long over due but Microsoft initially said it was only for version 6.5.

This week Microsoft have stated that is defiantly coming to 6.1 as well which is fantastic news for those whose phones are not supported for the upgrade to 6.5.

The Marketplace has got some catching up to do so it will be interesting to see how many apps it launches with and also what the prices are like.

Windows apps have historically been expensive compared to other platforms so lets see if Microsoft can give Apple a run for its money.

“First, we’ll launch Windows Marketplace for Mobile with Windows phones on October 6th. We’ve also discussed following this launch with an update that will include support for Windows Mobile 6 and 6.1 by the end of the year. More specifically, we’re targeting November for phase two. In addition, this second phase will bring the PC based catalog and shopping experience, user generated app reviews, advanced key-based anti-piracy protection and other enhancements that expand your business opportunity and make it easier for a larger number of customers to find and buy your application.”

Android Skytone Alphe 680 netbook live pictures surface

skytone-alpha-680

Still remember the Skytone Alpha 680 Android netbook? Yeah, it’s been a while since we last talked about it, but luckily, we’ve now got snapshots of it live and in the flesh. That’s the good part. Unfortunately, while this Android-powered 7-inch touchscreen equipped netbook’s hardware looks good to go, it also says in the report that it’s still “not really stable” which casts aside any hope that it’ll be available in the market anytime soon. On the bright side, however, at least we’ve now got a handful of pictures of the Skytone Alpha 680 Android netbook to keep us entertained for the time being. So, how about it guys? Like what you see so far?

HTC Leo (HD2) on T-Mobile in Europe

htc-hd2-t-mobile-europe Just yesterday we broke the news that the power-house known as the HTC HD2 was about to land on T-Mobile. Not only that, but the Touch2 is coming too. Great news all round.
Today we’ve had another anonymous tip, this time with a picture attached showing it on the T-Mobile systems under the name "HTC Touch HD2". You know the deal by now – 1Ghz CPU, 5 megapixel camera and all the goodies you could ever want. This looks set to be one of the most powerful and sexiest Windows Mobile phones ever.

Acer Tempo F900 HD unboxing video

Acer seem to be releasing quite a lot of handsets recently and this Acer Tempo F900 is one of the latest handsets to be released in the Tempo range.

The Acer Tempo F900 HD

The Acer Tempo F900 HD

 

The F900, still showing fairly obvious Eten design characteristics, appears to be Acer’s answer to the popular HTC Touch HD, having virtually the same screen and a similar footprint. Whether or not the F900 can hold its own against the Touch HD we’ll find out over the next few weeks as we test it for the full review. One thing is certain though, the F900 is a lot cheaper than the Touch HD at under £190 from eXpansys it does, on the face of it, seem like good value for money.

We’ll have the full review for you within the next few weeks. As always if there is anything specific that you would like to know then please let us know via the forum. For now have a look at the unboxing video below for a brief overview of the Aver F900.

T-Mobile UK Launches the Huawei Pulse

T-Mobile-Huawei-Pulse

Are you ready for a new Android in your life? Well if you happen to live in the UK then you will be able to pick up Huawei’s Pulse which is now available from T-Mobile UK.
The Pulse is Huawei’s first Android phone but it certainly looks pretty interesting. The phone will offer you a 3.5-inch touchscreen display, HSPA connectivity, GPS, WiFi and, of course, Android running in the background. As long as you’re willing to get a new T-Mobile contract the phone will be available free of charge. However, if you’re not looking forward to a new contract then the Pulse will cost you around $280 with a pay-as-you-go plan.
Considering that Microsoft is just about to launch Windows Mobile 6.5 to the masses, what are you more likely to get? A brand new Android phone or a Windows Phone? And we have certainly shown you lots of handsets lately running different OS so I bet the decision is not as easy as it would seem!

HTC Tattoo coming soon to Orange

A couple of weeks ago I posted the fact that the HTC Tattoo was showing as coming soon to Vodafone. Well, today it has also appeared on the Orange website which is good news.

HTC Tattoo

This device will obviously be available on contract but I am also looking forward to finding out if it will also be on PAYG. If it is then the big question will be cost. Just this week T-Mobile announced there own Android device, the Pulse and this is priced at £176.00 on PAYG. Will Orange use the Tattoo to compete? I do hope so as I think I need an Android device for research purposes and although not as good as the HTC Hero or Samsung Galaxy it will be a good option for me as long as the price is right.

Any further updates will be announced here.
