Seasoned tech blogger. Host of the Tech Addicts podcast.
Dave over at Mobility Today will be attending the Google Android launch on Tuesday next week and will be live blogging what is going on and being announced as it happens. The event is being held in New York so it is a bit far for us to travel so we will be keeping an eye on the news from afar. It is always exciting to see another smart phone operating system come out, so we will be itching to get one in our hands to see what it is all about. A few pictures of the device after the break.

Coolsmartphone managed to attend the Xperia X1 launch last night in London and got a boat load of pictures of the device on their Flickr page here. Their early thoughts on the handset is that it perhaps didn’t perform as quickly as it could, although it could be an early ROM build (err its launched on the 30th). Screen-switching speed wasn’t too bad, although it is dependent on what you’re doing at the time – watching a video and sliding the keyboard out took a little longer. The music and video apps performed well and received praise. A few of the pictures after the break.

Just had a tip off from Superetrader of a video that has just hit Youtube of the HTC Touch HD. The video is all in French unfortunately. The Touch HD is impressive, its screen quality is amazing. Enjoy the 12 minutes of video after the break. The software on the device is not finished yet.
French site Geek Inc have managed to get a hold of the HTC Touch HD and have posted some great pictures and comparisons with the iPhone 3G. These are the first real life images we have seen of the device and it is looking rather nice. We have some of the pictures after the break and if you speak French check out their site for their mini review.
Hey, ever wish you could play games with/against persons using different networks and platforms? Well, you’re in luck!

The excellent software Documents To Go is definitely coming to the iPhone. This is good news as the lack of quality applications available so far has been disappointing. If you don’t know this software lets you view, edit and create Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint files, view Adobe® PDF files as well as zip/unzip files on your device. Well this is how it works on a Windows Mobile device, all we know so far is that it is coming and will support these file types but it may just be a viewer, time will tell.
