Go Contacts is a replacement for your normal contacts app. If you run HTC Sense there is not much point in reading this as your “People” app does everything this does. This app is more for the people who have an Android device without a fancy skin on …

A rather unofficial way of updating your Windows Phone 7 device has appeared online. It seems to be relatively easy to do – you just run a file called “ChevronWP7.Updater.exe” and follow the prompts. Although it may sound ideal for those owners tired of waiting for the infamous …
