Those Tinkerers over at XDA-Developers have managed to pull this image that might just be the HTC Mondrian, a rumoured device mentioned in the offical ROM leaked out last week. XDA-Developers have also pieced together specs from an ongoing analysis of the registry and RGU files. So far they’ve spotted references to a 4.3-inch WVGA (480×800) display from Optrex and a 1.3GHz QSD8650A/B Snapdragon from Qualcomm.
Earlier today we broke the news that the HTC Wildfire has been announced. Last week I had a decent hands on with the device and what I can tell you is it is real sweet. It’s no contender for the Legend, Desire or Nexus One but it is not meant to be. The HTC Wildfires target market will be young adults who may currently be using a feature phone. The Wildfire will be a budget Android device, a nice stepping stone to a smartphone.
Sporting HTCs Sense UI, the Wildfire is as user friendly as we have come to expect from HTC. Hardware wise we have some decent specs on this cost effective new device. I say cost effective as that’s what I have been told by HTC. We will have to wait and see what prices the networks charge but if I was a gambling man I would bet the HTC Wildfire to be £15-£20 per month on a contract. We will have to wait and see.
Below is a quick video I shot of the HTC Wildfire just to give you a brief insight. We will let you know as soon as we get our hands on a review device. I don’t think it will be long!
Last week I was lucky enough to be invited to a top secret location for an introduction to the HTC Wildfire. After using this new device I can honestly say it’s a beauty. Kind of a mini HTC desire available in four colours. The Wildfire is designed to be a low cost Android device aimed at the younger generation of today. Will it be a hit? It certainly should be. No word yet on price and I think this will be the deciding factor.
I also managed to shoot some video of the HTC Wildfire and we will bring you that later on today.
Check out the official press release below.
It is still early days for the Apple iPad but there are already some nice Twitter applications available and the one I have been using the most is Twittelator. Although I have been using TweetDeck on both my PC and iPod Touch up until recently I decided that it was time for a change when my iPad arrived. After speaking with one or two people that had already used Twittelator my mind was made up and I spent my $4.99 and downloaded.
Paying for a Twitter application is not something I have done before, but now I have the iPad I have become accustomed to forking out a little more money for decent apps. Of course the iPhone/iPod apps still work on the iPad in X2 mode but for the best quality you really need an iPad specific one.
Is Twittelator worth $4.99 and will I be sticking with this application? Read on to find out.
