Color is an app for Iphones and Android phones. Color is a social network for smartphones.
Oh the irony of that concept.
Ever mess with your phone while you are flirting? Not very social… is it?
To the makers of Color, I have something to say
Colors APP
Enjoy your Color App.
YAWN..
The Verizon Iphone has been released. and seeing that I am the only Android user in the office I am in, I am surround in Iphones and blackberries. Today I get my chance to have my hands on the Verizon Iphone. Signal looks very strong. The feel is no different from the AT&T Iphone 4. There used to be one person in the office that used Android phones other than myself, but she got hold of an Iphone (3rd or what ever…older than iphone 4) and Jailbroke it and hacked the crud out of it to use on the Tmobile network. I feel betrayed, wish she made a droid of it.

Signal is strong, feel is very new and kinda heavy, feels like money’s worth
Verizon Import Contacts APp
Outer casing $20 extra, probably worth way more than that, the phone looks easy to scratch, but I didn’t try and scratch my friend’s new toy.
Verizon Iphone
To start, it’s 3g.
to back up your contacts, get the app VZ contacts, it’s much easier than anything teh salesman tries to give you.
My friend was a month from upgrade but wanted the Iphone. Had been using same phone for 4 years, (some samsung or what ever ). asked to get upgrade was told he couldn’t at a discount. He told them that would be fine he will just go to AT&T across the street get the 4g Iphone and pay off his last month at Verizon and that he was not attached to that phone number.
After a bit of discussion “with the manager” the salesman “found a loop hole”. He got his Verizon Iphone for $199.
Verizon’s Insurance from a regular phone to an Iphone changed from $4.99 to $10.99, Other fees are still the same. To his knowledge. Here is the at&T 4g
AT&T IPhone

Should be 4g but some reason says 3g, signal might be low? Can they jump networks like that? I know my blackberry on Tmobile would go edge and then go 3g,Depending on my location, nearest tower, and interference conditions. So I assume that’s is what’s going on here.
Jailbrok T-Mobile Iphone

Curiosity is setting in at the TruXterTech camp. as to what Cell phone operating system do you feel gives you the most abilities that you like.
Rim- Research in Motion from Blackberry
Apple – Iphone
Android- Android/Google
ISA – Nokia OS
Windows- Microsoft

This isn’t a poll of phone manufacturers, it’s more of a poll of phone operating systems. If you could use any operating system on your phone, what operating system would you prefer?
If your cell phone/ Smart phone could run any cellphone operating system, what would be your end choice in phone software?
Let’s say “educated” rumor of the Playstation phone, will have android on it. And from the picture it looks as if the Playstation phone will use GSM.
from Mashable
I hope they modified the Android o/s to look more like playstation’s o/s. Because well, the ps o/s looks cool.
Looks like the Sony Playstation phone will be using the Ericsson manufacturing (owned by Sony).

I would have preferred qwerty keyboard with w-a-s-d Steering and i-j-k-l throttling and damper.
If this is the path for the Playstation Portable PSP, then it’s pretty much over for all competitors, phone wise, hand held gaming systems, Media players and anything in between or remotely close.
Only possible competitor would be Nintendo Ds from iphone or rim.
1 gig processor
512 mb ram
1gig of storage.
Should play GTAIII well and all of the GTA stories.
Maybe vice city. surely vice city stories, since the psp played liberty city and vice city stories on a much wimpier processor.
The psp phone (yeah I called it a PSP phone…) will easily play movies in pretty high resolution. Considering my G1 does pretty good and my PSP does pretty well.
From Mashable, It seems that Apple is claiming their intentions for your use of their product. (Apple is bricking the hacked iphones. Again.)
On one end I understand why they don’t want you to modify or enhance their product. Their whole operating system is that way.
On the other end I understand why people get upset that they paid for something and should be able to use it how they want to.
That’s just apple. They create it, they tell you how to use it. Many accept that as a logical request. Others find that to be zombie like. I find it crippling by not allowing more people to create and innovate to evolve more in the directions that other people than Mac employees may think is next or most wanted.
But again they put a copyright on their product with a specific end user license agreement. When you buy their product you are at some time given the EULA that you have to agree to before you can actually use the product. Most people do not read them. They just click ok and hurry into their new goodies.
So Enjoy your Iphone for what it is. :-)
I got my hands on the IPhone 4. After a week of arguing with the macfaqs at work about how Apple is not super man and the pope rolled into one and how the Iphone really does have a signal issue.
One of the co-workers brought an Iphone 4 in to the office and let me get a hands on.
IPhone 4 With camera on
The camera on it is amazing. (yeah I’m in the background gathering pictures with my G1).
Back Of IPhone 4
You can actually have a full on video chat with someone who has an IPhone 4 also.
Front Camera
The resolution is remarkable. The thing is nice and heavy feeling. Very sturdy. Somehow though it looks like the old nano and a Motorolla birthed an Apple. Video quality is up to 720p 29 fps recording.
screen area
512mb Ram 1GHz processor Really impressive. That could play GTA liberty City Stories easily.
Well that’s the best I can do with my limited time with the phone. The co-worker that brought that with him is now as we speak on a plane to somewhere on vacation. HTC needs to build more like that. or Motorolla needs to build more like that. Then again, just be motivated by that to make something better. So if I did not make it clear reception was fine. a room with 7 computers 6 of them running and reception was fine. No matter where I placed my fingers on that phone, the signal was good.
(((((1 video was removed)))))
I really appreciated the chance to check that thing out. It was the feeling of when you are holding a brand new hard drive that you know is fast and has tons of storage. It just felt sturdy very well built and nice and heavy.
I will not be buying one simply because AT&T has chased me away already with their bad signal in my area. Sure wish it was on Tmobile. Not much better but better.
The Iphone 4 has been released. At some AT&T had lines of people who camped waiting to be one of the first to obtain 1.
The apearance is slightly more boxy and resembles past ipods with hint of influence from android phone shapes.
Functionality has been smoothed in ways that makes android phones look dated. Video quality is suprisingly high. That will surely be compared to droid 5mp cams.
Full review on the review section of truxtertech.com . Houston malls opened at 7 am to release. Day 2 opening at 8 am. For those who missed out. Video chat works.
Russian president got his todaqy straight from steve jobs while in california.
This new was posted from my G1.
World War Droid
This game is addictive. You can play against your friends who have Iphones and the same game. I love cross platform games. Nothing more inviting to make me pick “do I want speed strengthy build and good looks phone, or do I want reliability ease of button mashing phone” to make me decide what phone I want, than multi-platform games. would be cool if Xbox and Playstation would do this.
I waited for a good while to play this game. While my co-workers had it on their Iphone, I was playing a similar game on Myspace called Mobsters. I knew that I was the one who could show these hipsters who’s boss……. but I just couldn’t get the dang game. it wasn’t out for my Moto, and it still wasn’t out when I got my blackberry. Almost five months after I got the G1, here is the game I have been wanting. World War.
Great game. If you need invites post your gamer code here and let other readers add you.
Rumor is (On ZDNET) that Iphone is moving to or expanding to Verizon. Verizon is known to have the best cellular coverage across America. Iphone is of course known as being the most wanted cell phone around the world. With the release of Android, Iphone has to have seen a huge hit to their budget. or not. apple is quite tight lipped.
This whole news burst could be all mislead hype. Apple has a huge “no leak” policy. Just earlier in March there was a rumor of Sprint getting the Iphone . So this could all be a rumor or it could be a fact. Both sprint and Verizon are on CDMA networks. So there could be an all out Motorola (everyone has or has had one) move coming.
So far there is no tale of Iphone heading to Tmobile. Of course we know that TMobile is the leader in Android phones (well it seems like it). A move to Iphone through TMobile may lead to a huge batch of phones being traded in. This would be the death nail for Android. Tmobile is of course not a cdma network phone, it is GSM. So it’s the same build as AT&T. It would be an easy move. I doubt though that Tmobile would take them in.
As of now, everything is speculation. But you can imagine what every mac rumor does to their stocks. So from here out, we watch and wait. If it does not come to your network, chances are you can buy one on eBay that is unlocked…. and ready. for $100 extra.
Get Square font sent to your Iphone as an SMS, you are compromised. Time to shut down.
Well This goes to show you, that it is not a perfect company. The one device they make that
actually hits the masses, Gets hacked fast and easy one simple text message font From what I gather, the font will look like the blank font looks on a machine that does not support it, it will just be a square. One single square that locks up your cell phone. Mashable says that when your phone locks up, they are hacking you. Really I doubt that, locked up is locked up, unless you are locked out and the lock up is just a spoof.
Make you think twice about yoru twitter ap…..
