Expecting our final release Xperia from Superetrader this week.
Yet another security flaw in the iPhone’s software had been found, and while it’s probably not particularly harmful to the majority of users, it is pretty interesting. Karl Kraft posted the exploit on his blog, but he wasn’t the one to uncover it. No, despite his skills with a computer and knowledge of the software, he didn’t find it. Instead he says it was found by his 12-year-old son.
HTC have just confirmed via Twitter that the Touch HD will not be coming to the USA at all.
As we reported last month, Vodafone now have the Dell Inspiron Mini’s available for free when you sign up for a 24 month mobile broadband contract. The difference with this offer compared with the other free netbooks is that the actual mobile broadband does not come as a USB dongle but it is actually built into the netbook. The benefits are no dongles hanging out your netbook and better battery life as your not powering a USB accessory. Full details and plan pricing after the break.
Crackberry have unleashed a few picture of what is reputedly the Blackberry application centre. Downloading applications straight to your phone seems to be all the rage with recent Skymarket rumours and Google’s online store for Android. Have a look at the pics after the break.
Here is a little phone from Asus to be released by O2 under the Xda umbrella. It’s another Windows Mobile 6.1 device however this one will have a rather attractive undercarriage. Its something of a HTC Diamond eclipsed by the HTC Touch HD in a rather boring form factor. Look for it in November.
According to our friends at Windows Mobile Italy the HTC Diamond will soon be available in a few more colours which should be a nice alternative to the already available Black and White. The colours available will be fuschia, brown, blue, purple, red and yellow. So if you like your phone to be as colourful as your personality your all sorted. Pictures after the break.
This rumour has been circulating for a while now but the noise is getting louder now. Macworld think Apple may be closing in on a deal with Carphone Warehouse under which the latter firm will begin selling Macs in-store across the UK. AppleInsider is also claiming that Mac-related ‘placeholder’ items have appeared within the Carphone Warehouse internal computer system, prompting speculation on an such a deal. For me this would make perfect sense, Apple do not have enough stores in the UK so this would be a great way for them to hit the high street and this would also enable Carphone Warehouse to offer big discounts on MacBooks if bought with a Mobile Broadband contract.
