Alright my Android friends, time to update your Google Play Store…again. Just last weekend, the Play Store updated, and now, another update is upon us. Not much seems to have changed in this update. Couple of us are thinking since the Google Play Gift Cards are soon upon us, that this update...

In the past week or so, we have seen some leaked Jelly Bean builds fo the Samsung Galaxy S III hit the interwebs. Many were happy, few did not even know about it. Most of you that own a GSIII have probably already rooted the beast, and possibly have already slapped some Jelly Bean “delish”...

Last week, we reported that there was a little survey roaming around the digital streets, asking customers of T-Mobile what “Endless” 4G plans mean to them. Rumors then spread like a bad rash that T-Mobile was going to be bringing “true” unlimited 4G plans that did not throttle...

With every version of CyanogenMod build awesomeness, a creative boot animation has been born. From Andy skating onto our screens, to the newly welcomed Cid showing us what seems to be angry eyes while going through a worm hole. Flashing early builds of CM10 on my phone, the developers have either went...

OK, so this is semi off topic simply because Android has yet to get access to Microsoft SkyDrive. We do know that an app is on the way though, so that reels it back in a bit. With concerns of privacy a major upset across any service, device and company, this little hidden aspect of the EULA for SkyDrive...

The smartphone competition is really starting to heat up. Rumors of multiple manufacturers working on Nexus devices, the current Galaxy S III and upcoming Note 2. It is getting serious out there people. LG is mixed right in there with much of it. The LG Optimus VU just went global, we hear LG has a Nexus...

MetroPCS is sure starting to shape up to be a pretty good looking little cell provider. They recently announced that they have Voie over LTE services up and running and now we get to see a glimpse of some of the new devices headed to their doorsteps. One device being from an unknown company called Coolpad,...

And so it begins. Some of you may remember the story we ran a while back that Google might be ramping up to have more manufacturers releasing Nexus branded devices this year. Traditionally they would let them all fight for the honor of producing the next Nexus and be the flagship device of Google....

Looks like things are getting well underway. I just went in to the Play Store to take a gander at a few things and thought I’d check around. When you go to check out either on the mobile Play Store or the web based Play Store you can now hit the dropdown and click Redeem as the payment method for...

There isn’t much big news running around the web today other than the new Google gift cards for the Play Store. We have seen images of what it looks like on a device, we see landing pages up from Google and we even have cards for sale at a few local retailers. What we don’t see yet though...

There you have it. Google has pushed the button to share the official Play Store gift card landing page with the world. It shows off a few images of the cards in their packaging on the right and a little description on the left. We knew Target was stocking them already and had them on the sales floor,...

Plants vs. Zombies is an extremely popular game across multiple platforms. Placing various plants on your lawn your goal is to protect your home from the invading and hungry zombies. I know my kids have it on the NDS and play it all the time still. PopCap Games has recently announced that a sequel to...

It is getting to be that time of year where the rumors for the next pure Google experience Nexus device will start to hit the web. Will it be the device of your dreams, or just another option for those that like to get their hands on things right from Google? According to SamMobile, the next Nexus will...

Looks like Google is getting closer to launching the Play Store gift cards that many of us are extremely excited to finally see. They recently published a gift card support page, but of course took it down pretty darn fast. As you and I both know though, very few things that get pushed and removed are...
