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!

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.

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.

I was unaware up until this announcement that Blackberry owners had gone with out an official desktop client on the Mac, until today. I’m sure this news will please a far few around the globe. Get it here!
Samsung has made available another firmware update for its first Android-powered device – i7500 Galaxy. Although it keeps Android 1.5 Cupcake, firmware version I7500XXII5_VIAII5 will apparently make the phone snappier, more stable, while at the same time ensure the battery lasts longer. In addition, the built-in compass has been improved to better sing along such apps as Google (NSDQ: GOOG) Maps, Sky Maps and Wikitude; and users can now send bitmap MMS. Finally, the screen-unlock has been improved and now the unlock time is just 0.5 seconds.
To update your Galaxy, grab the Samsung’s PC Studio software and follow the steps provided on the screen. Once an update is applied, the Korean giant suggests factory reset…
