Just received the HTC Touch Pro and whilst I am putting the device through some heavy testing I thought it might be interesting to post some comparison shots of the phone compared with a Nokia N95 8 Gig and the iPhone 3G as a lot has been written about the phone resembling a brick. Well I have to tell you with my first impressions it feels great in the hand and nothing like a brick, very similar in size to the N95. Pictures after the break.
Well this is really bad news and now makes Twitter a much less attractive service for those of us outside of the US, Canada and India. Due to the high cost of SMS, Twitter SMS updates will only be available in the US, Canada and India. Well for me getting updates via SMS is the main feature of this application and it maybe time to look for alternatives. The full statement from Twitter is after the break.
Tracy and Matt are the first to get the HTC Touch Pro and they have unboxed it. They have a video and a bunch of specs. Looking forward to their full review in a couple of days.
Pocketnow.com have reviewed the Celio Redfly with a series of well presented videos. They take time to raise a few of the problems with the device, however it’s all mostly positive. Watch and enjoy.
Phone Arena has a review the of the I-mate Ultimate 8150. It is a good looking phone, but does it have what it takes to set it apart from the rest? We have the video after the break.
Vodafone have just released a firmware upgrade for their version of the HTC Diamond. Hats off to Vodafone as it has always been a major gripe that the networks take forever to issue software upgrade for devices but this definitely seems to be improving. There is no mention of what has been changed in the firmware but we are guessing that it will be improvements in the device speed especially using the TouchFlo UI. Link and details after the break.
VITO Technology releases a new version of one of its best-sellers – Winterface. Winterface is a Windows Mobile shell that helps you to organize applications and settings of your PocketPC the way you like. The start gesture “rainbow” was replaced in the new version by upside down tick. Moreover, it has become possible to add to the main screen not only applications, settings and contacts but also any files on your Pocket PC. Besides, calendar and tasks now can notify you about upcoming events, appointments and tasks. Minor bugs have been also fixed.
I have been waiting for this one, as a former Windows Mobile user I have been using Windows Live Messenger for years to keep in touch with friends and family and it has been sorely missed on the iPhone Platform. MobileChat supports multiple instances of ICQ, .Mac/MobileMe, Windows Live/MSN, Yahoo, Google Talk, and Jabber accounts. Video walkthrough after the break.
The days of foraging around the Internet or visiting dubious mobile phones shops may soon be over. Instead of getting your handset unlocked why not just get your Sim card unlocked with SIMable. SIMable is an innovative little chip that frees your SIM card to work in the vast majority of mobile phones. We all know that the very latest 3G devices can be very difficult and expensive to unlock and SIMable is the 10 second solution without invalidating any warranty on your precious handset. Full details and device compatibility after the break.
Clove now have a bunch of HTC Touch Pro’s in their inventory for you to shell out your cash for. We will hopefully have a full review of the product in the near future however, have a look at the specs and try to convince yourself you don’t need one.
