We have just received the HTC Snap from Clove Technology to review and have taken a few pictures including some comparison shots with the iPhone 3G and Touch HD.
First impressions are the keyboard is fantastic, big well spaced out keys and a joy to type on. We are working on an unboxing video but until then take a look at the pictures after the break.
Interesting little review of the Giga-byte GSmart MS820. This 6.1 Professional device looks pretty nifty and has a rather swish interface however there seem to be a few problems with the device as a whole. Check after the break for the video.

First our US readers will get the chance to get their own hands on the Palm Pre, this Saturday to be precise, then our radars tune in to WWDC where we expect the button to be pressed on iPhone OS 3.0 and a new iPhone with loads of extra features, well if the rumours are to be believed it will have space rockets built into it and the moon will soon become a popular holiday destination for iPhone users.
After that we should see Samsung’s first attempt at Android hitting Europe, a great spec on the phone and the first Android device with a 3.5mm headset jack.
Also coming up on Mobile Tech Addicts the long awaited HTC Touch Pro2 review, HTC Snap unboxing and review plus loads more.

Here is how this app looks like (note: it is free so sometimes it is displaying banners from AdMob):
MocoNews have a little article regarding the usage ratio of mobile and fixed line broadband usage. There are some quite interesting figures as the take up of mobile broadband seems to be steadily rising.

Mobile broadband is a much more viable option however there are even bigger holes and pathetic service provided around the edges. Read on for the article.
