In a bit of sad news, AT&T has decided to follow in Verizon’s footsteps and change their upgrade policy to only allow an upgrade every 24 months. It was originally 20 months so this is a bit of a significant change. But on the bright side, if your contract ends before March of 2014, you can still upgrade at 20 months before then. AT&T also… Read more
Sad news for Big Red customers today, Verizon has made some changes to their upgrade eligibility policies and they’re not all that good.

Here’s a strange one. Motorola is updating the XPRT on Sprint with Gingerbread. Not Ice Cream Sandwich, not Jelly Bean, but Gingerbread. What a long way we’ve come, right?

At Motorola’s keynote today, they were talking about upgrades. They promised Jelly Bean upgrade for almost all of their phones released on 2011. However, they said a few won’t be getting this upgrade. Of course, it’s understandable if they don’t have the specs to run it (though it still isn’t excusable). So phones like the DROID 3 won’t get it. Now… Read more
