Everyone has that moment were you are bored and just search through the market and wonder whats the new hot thing. Sometimes I find my self going through friends phones to see what kinda apps they have on their phone. Well what if there was an app that could let you do just that. Well the folks...

Mozilla Firefox is one of the most widely used browsers when it comes to home computers. VERY much a HUGE step up from Internet Explorer. When it was first heard that the popular browser was coming to Android, people got excited. As soon as it got out of its beta stage, I really did not hear much about...

We all knew that the community would be working hard on porting the Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) SDK to run on our current devices.  Until the Android 4.0 source code is dropped into the AOSP, this is the only option we have.  It works, but not as good as an AOSP builds.  They are generally slower...

  When you get to my age, you remember the days when new episodes of Doctor Who were a exciting day of the week.  I used to watch every episode and as a child, had great nightmares about the Daleks.  The new series is just as slap stick as the original, sometimes to much, but still enjoyable.     For...

I bought my Fascinate almost the day it came out. It was my first Android and Verizon phone, and I was pretty happy just to have service in my house outside a small town’s city limit. The more I read and found out about Android though, the more I heard the outcries over updated OS’s, Binged...

I created a quick look video of Virtuous Fusion MT4G v1.0.0 for the HTC Glacier / T-Mobile myTouch 4G by @eViL_D.  I got my lighting wrong for the video so the screen is not up to the quality I wanted, but it shows the Sense 3 interface just fine.  You really have to see it in real life to appreciate...

Now I know how my 3 year old feels!  The VPAD7 is like a huge phone. My employer recently purchased one of these devices for each member of my department.  Why, you ask?  So we can play with them and give recommendations for or against a much larger future purchase.  I’m marginally impressed. While...

  For the past two days I have been asked over and over again what this app is called.  It is a great conversation starter, it relieves stress, and is good for a laugh the first 10-20 times you open it up.  As you can see there isn’t much substance to the app other than a fairly accurate...

We all have specific preferences when it comes to how we search the web. We already have a nice selection of mobile web browsers on the market (Opera, Firefox, Dolphin, Skyfire, xScope, etc.). Is this one good enough to compete with such big contenders? Don’t be fooled Maxthon isn’t just...
