Android on the Treo 650

screen

Here’s a bit of fin from Youtube, a Palm Treo 650 running Android. Google has always claimed that Android can run on pretty much anything and here’s proof of that. My fondness for this device is extreme and I would love to be able to breath new life into it. Provided drivers can be made available for it.

Tesco Mobile Network customers to get the iPhone

iphone with Tesco Mobile - Coming Soon So yesterday O2 and Tesco announced that the iPhone would be coming to Tesco’s which is a large Supermarket. Well I am not a phone snob but the thought of seeing the best smartphone around appearing alongside your beans and chicken breasts is a little off putting for me and some what devaluing. Having said that, maybe Tesco’s will now pull their finger out and get an App sorted for home grocery shopping, now that would be a handy App.

I understand the reason behind it but if it hits Aldi ot Netto anytime soon I may have to consider ditching mine.

Press Release after the break.

HTC’s Capacitive Stylus Appears

Yesterday we told you about the extended battery, car kit and the capacitive stylus for the HTC HD2. Well today the first images of the stylus surface on the web.

htc-capacitive-stylus

 

Russian site YouHTC seem to have been the first to get their hands on photos but other sites also have the photos now. We’ll post more photos as we get them.

According to WMPoweruser the stylus will cost £17.25. Apparently the end of the stylus is transparent so you can see though it but with a red dot to indicate where it is being pressed. It’s also curved at the bottom.
