It has been rumored that the Sony has abandoned its scheduled February 10th release date of the Ericsson Xperia X10 and will begin shipping preorders out to the UK on January 18th. Either way, this is a phone that I am excited to see, and it ranks #1 on my “to buy” list for this year. More »

From Girlybubble: Cute isn’t just fuzzy puppies, frosted cupcakes and bows. The state of cute extends far beyond what we typically imagine — cute can be fonts (unless the font in question is Comic Sans, which is never cute). They’re perfect for adding a bit of whimsical personality to printed materials, or if you feel like annoying your boss with cute memos. More »

From my perspective, the only significant area that HTC phones need to do catch-up on is multi-touch, which Apple does just so splendidly. More »

One day, almost everyone will probably use smartphones daily. HTCYou is designed to be a resource for Android and HTC owners and fans to gather together as a community, sharing and learning. More »

Samsung has a new line of suspiciously inexpensive HDTVs, one of which is the PN50B530, retailing for $1299.99 Canadian. Presently, Americans have the PN50B550 at $1399.99 (although regularly discounted to the $1200 range), but specs on both models are identical except for the number of inputs, and the latter’s internet connectivity. At its price tag, the PN50B530 is an entry-level 1080p TV, but it has image quality that is far from low-end. More »
