Not too long ago, Google added voice recognition to their iPhone search application. Not one to be behind the times, Yahoo! has gone and done the same.
Well, that’s what we should have been able to say. Instead, Yahoo’s voice recognition add-on comes nearly 6 months after Google’s. Of course, Yahoo’s application is a bit more [...]

Video Of SGN’s Unlaunched iPhone Jet Dogfighter Game

People say the iPhone is really a gaming device with a mobile phone bolted on. And given how much time I spend playing games on my iPhone, I tend to agree. The touchscreen, accelerometer and (mostly still untapped) ability to play games against others over Wifi or 3G make gameplay compelling.

Posted on April 28, 2009. Filed under: Gadgets, Mobile, Samsung | Tags: , , , , |

Samsung finally went ahead and did what we’ve expected them to do today with the announcement of their first Android powered handset, the I7500. Better late than ever, I say.

It’s an Android netbook!

Posted on April 21, 2009. Filed under: Gadgets, Technology | Tags: , |

We’ve been hearing for a while about this and that company thinking about making an MID or netbook (or desktop) with Android as the OS. Well! Someone’s gone and done it! And they even shot video, the dears.
The guys at NetbookNews put it on an i-Buddie, and recorded it for posterity. Unfortunately, it’s extremely [...]

With too many companies to list battling it out for users in the live mobile video broadcasting space, spreading the word is key. Most people just don’t realize such a thing is possible; outside of geekier circles, the entire concept is still fairly new. Stream a live video from your handset and send the link [...]

Posted on April 16, 2009. Filed under: Gadgets, Mobile, Samsung | Tags: , , , |

It looks like Samsung might have hired the same folks responsible for their last Omnia viral video to conjure up one for the HD i8910 (which, depending on where you live, may or may not go by the OmniaHD.)
This one doesn’t seem quite as creative as the last one (though, as that one was a [...]

Posted on April 13, 2009. Filed under: Gadgets, Mobile, Samsung | Tags: , , , |

Alright, fellas – lets get this one out of the way: the Samsung SGH-A657 isn’t going to score you any points from the ladyfolk. These military spec phones never do. That said, if you’ve actually got a reason to be carrying a phone like this, you’re probably too busy rappelling out of helicopters to care [...]
