The is no shortage of capable browsers for Windows Mobile these days and here is one of the stronger offerings with a new suit. Netfront Browser 4.0 has a pretty swish feature set and is worth keeping on your device for the days when Opera is being daft and Skyfire is being a pain. Read on for the press release:
Grand Theft Auto has arrived on the iPhone and iPod Touch with Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars making the jump to the iTunes App Store.
Grand Theft Auto: Chinatown Wars on the iPhone uses onscreen controls rather than the iPhone’s accelerometer and includes the mini-games that were present in its original version.
Try it now, it will only cost you £5.99 and so far the ratings are excellent.

Arguably the biggest problem with the Palm OS was it’s inability to work with 3G however it was a strong and stable operating system. So what’s to stop non-3G devices running it? Well nothing! Aceeca seem to have plans to continue to produce reinforced handsets using the old operating system whilst updating it to the newer 5.x. Whilst the rumoured $199 and $499 price tags might seem a little excessive we’ll watch these devices closely just to see how and why they have decided to go with the Palm OS.

We are big fans of Sky Satellite TV here at Mobile Tech Addicts and the one thing lacking is a decent application to view upcoming TV but more importantly be able to set your box to record it while you were out and about.
Sky did release a rather awful application that was slow and unreliable but this refresh looks fantastic and is fast and now includes all the missing HD content too.
What do you do if you have tried every mobile network where you live and discover that they are all pretty poor and you suffer random loss of service, missed calls and frustration, well Vodafone think they have the answer with their Access Gateway or as their starting to call it Sure Signal.
This is basically a femtocell that connects to your home broadband connection and provides a full 3G signal to your phone for calls and data.
Does it work, read on for the full review:-
Fresh release – released just today! So, you would like to record video of something secretly? There is an app for that:
The Acer Liquid has been getting quite a bit of coverage thanks to the Android operating system, good feature set and price point.
The drawback for some to date has been the fact that it has only been available with a White back cover.
This however is now not the case, we can now supply units with a Black back cover – which to some, we are sure will be great news.
In stock now, you can get your hands on one of these today.
If this is what you have been waiting for, the unit, which is only different to the white one in terms of colour can be ordered HERE
Here is a quick unboxing of the Samsung Omnia Pro B7610. I’m actually rather enjoying the device and was seriously impressed by the build quality. Check out the videos after the break:
