The ASUS Eee Pad Transformer TF101 is finally getting another update. I say finally because I've heard nothing but bad things about the Ice Cream Sandwich update from Transformer owners. I hear of crashes and reboots multiple times a day, instability, and just an almost unusable device. It's been pretty terrible. Luckily, there is a bug fixing update... Read more

On the heels of news Verizon plans to eliminate unlimited data plans for 3G customers in favor of their upcoming shared data plans, we wonder if the move to shared data isn't something we should fear? As the industry now stands, heavy smartphone users already approach bandwidth limits every month and while we're making a prediction that the... Read more

Sonic 4: Episode II has been launched today, and boy does it look great on a Tegra 3 device! Sega worked with NVIDIA to bring near console-like graphics to Tegra 3 devices, and the comparison shots above (comparing a non-Tegra 3 device and a Tegra 3 device) really show the work they put into it. Though we all know the Tegra 3 isn't all that... Read more

The media went crazy today about how Google Music only allowed 10 devices to access music, with only 4 device deactivations per year. This was a big problem for those who flashed ROMs often, because every new ROM flash counted as a new activation. That means if you used one device to access Google Music, you could only flash it 13 times before access to... Read more

The first leaked Ice Cream Sandwich build for the DROID 4 has been acquired straight from Motorola. Since the DROID 4 was on the list to (eventually) get the ICS update, this was expected. This is still an early build, so don't expect too much stability. Upgrading the DROID 4 is always a risk, thanks to Motorola's stance on hacking. Besides the... Read more

In a move sure to surprise many, NVIDIA demonstrated their upcoming cloud gaming service, a la OnLive. It'll be called GeForce Grid, and is made possible by a partnership with Gaikai, who already has a game streaming service of its own. While OnLive is definitely a good service, it seems that GeForce Grid will be a lot better. Since the service will... Read more

Amazon Wireless has once again dropped their price for the AT&T HTC One X. Unfortunately, this only applies to the gray version. Fortunately the white version may not be appealing to many people due to the fact that it turns blue just from keeping it in a pocket of blue jeans. I have witnessed the same problems with a light gray HTC Inspire 4G (massive... Read more

Looks like the HTC EVO 4G LTE will not be coming when announced. To make matters worse, further shipments of the AT&T HTC One X will also be delayed, so stock may run out. HTC shared this statement about the delay of HTC phones explaining the situation: “The US availability of HTC One X and HTC EVO 4G LTE has been delayed due to a standard U.S.... Read more

New results comparing worldwide smartphone market shares in Q1 of 2011 and Q1 of 2012 have been released, and they're quite surprising. Nokia's Symbian platform held 27.7% of the market share, which in one year, dropped down to a low 8.6%. Also, Windows Phone dropped from 2.6% to 1.9%. Things really aren't looking good for Nokia, especially considering... Read more

To be grandfathered into an unlimited 3G data plan, you would have to have upgraded your phone before Verizon implemented tiered data. However, Verizon is trying to get all those customers on data-share plans. Those plans are set to launch mid-summer. Verizon Communications CFO Fran Shammo said that all 3G customers will have to migrate to 4G LTE, and... Read more
