Firefox 2

Matt | October 24, 2006 |

Since the announcement earlier this week I have been trying out the new version of Firefox. I’m pretty impressed with it actually. I had been previously using Avant Browser as I liked the tabbed browsing and the resuming of browsing sessions when you close/re-open the browser. These features and more have now been incorporated into […]

HTC TyTN screen alignment fix

Matt | October 23, 2006 |

Screen alignment issues have been discussed a lot where HTC devices are concerned. As we reported a while ago, the HTC Hermes seems to be the latest HTC device to suffer this fate. Orange SPV M3100 owners seem to have got off lightly as there have been very few reports of alignment issues with this […]

MicroSD Card Shortage? (Part 2)

Matt | October 22, 2006 |

Some time ago I blogged about the apparant shortage of MicroSD (Transflash) memory cards. Over the past few months supplies of 512mb and 1gb cards have started to come through slowly, however, prices have remained high. I have spoken with a number of resellers that I regularly deal with about the lack of MicroSD cards. […]

SIM Unlock M3100

Matt | October 21, 2006 |

Now that I am using the HTC TyTN as my main phone now Tracy decided that she would like to have my Orange M3100. Trouble is that she is on T-mobile. I remembered that there was a site that was offering to unlock HTC Hermes phones so after a quick Google I found the place […]

HTC P3300 (Artemis) Review

Matt | October 20, 2006 |

‘On The Go Solutions’ have an excellent single-page review of the new HTC P3300 (Artemis). The Artemis is a slim PocketPC mobile device with the added benefit of built in GPS. There have been rumours that the GPS element would be disabled initially as there were some firmware problems discovered late in the manufacturing process […]

HTC Herald (P)review

Matt | October 19, 2006 |

I just stumbled across some new photos of the HTC Herald. It looks like a fantastic device! SoloPalmari have some good quality photos of the device which is said to be a slimmed down version of the HTC Hermes but just 18mm thick. What you’ll notice from the photos are two indicator LEDs on just […]

After what seems like an eternity, Expansys finally have a headphone adapter available for the HTC Hermes. The adapter will work on the HTC TyTN, Orange M3100, Vodafone v1605 and all other Hermes variants as well as some other HTC devices coming soon. Check out the product page at Expansys.

Stop your Smartphone LED flashing

Matt | October 18, 2006 |

Many of us find the flashing status LEDs on our Smartphones and PocketPCs really annoying. Lots of people place their phones next to them while they are sleeping and LEDs seem to have increased in brightness recently. Realising that this is a problem AKsoft have released a small utility to stop the status lights from […]

Orange offer off-peak browsing

Matt | October 17, 2006 |

Orange must be getting desperate to win back the customers they lost to T-Mobile when they introduced the excellent web n’ walk service. The Orange offer gives new or existing customers (who re-sign their contracts) 2 months worth of free unlimited off-peak surfing. After that you’ll be paying £5 per month. I certainly don’t think […]

The new release follows on from a great start to the month that has already seen several Camera database updates, and a number of incremental updates to ‘CamerAware Tracker’, the online viewer for uploaded journey data.
