Android YouTube, AmazonMP3 and Settings video walkthrough

The guys over at Android Community have just posted three videos showing us more details on the inbuilt YouTube applications, AmazonMP3 and the settings section of the HTC G1 Android Phone.

You can see all three video after the break.

Photoshop.com mobile beta is live

We mentioned last month that Photoshop.com was coming to Windows Mobile, well it is now live and you can join the beta. The bad news is the list of supported phones. As of now the only models supported are the Samsung Blackjack I and II, Moto Q9H, Moto Q9M and finally the Treo 700W and 750W. There is a video to show you what it is all about at the Photoshop site and if you are already a member you can go straight to the mobile site m.photoshop.com from your Windows Mobile.

Looking for an iPhone screen protector

If your looking to get a bit of protection for your iPhone you should check out Mobility Today’s review of the Bodyguardz Screen Protector. Dave last night decided to take the plunge and apply a BodyGuardz screen protector for his iPhone 3G. As you can see by the photos after the break these have no orange peel effect and they are as clear as glass. I am currently using the Invisible Shield on my iPhone 3G and have to admit when I use other people iPhone’s I am rather jealous of the smoothness of their screen compared with mine so this looks like a good compromise.
