Coolsmartphone reader Michael Kent has been on the phone to o2. No, he's not after an iPhone, he wanted to know about the o2 XDA Stellar - the o2 branded HTC TyTN II we reviewed earlier. Word is that it'll be landing on Monday 26th November. Apparentl...
Here's a rather "interesting" review of the HTC Touch and HTC Shadow from ABC News which, if I'm honest, is one of the worst articles I've ever read. It dismisses the hugely successful HTC Touch as the "worst phone" they've seen and call it a "mess". ...
Well hello, what's this over at xda-developers ? Why, if it isn't the Orange HTC Touch Dual we spotted the other day :) There's further evidence that this is will arrive on Monday and Orange have managed to bag themselves a four week exclusivity agree...

Good news! Thanks to your donations we've managed to purchase a brand new server at last :) This means that we'll no longer have to rent and pay large re-occuring charges for upgrades to our existing server. I'd like to thank you once again for your h...
We've had a tip from Mike Pearson about the HTC Touch Dual on Orange. He's been on the phone to Orange Retentions who say that the it'll be arriving on Monday 12th November. We're not totally sold that it'll be in shops next Monday but we'll keep an …
Get ready for it UK, because that time has finally arrived. If you're out on the beer this Friday night and spot some people lurking by an o2 store it'll be due to this thing. The iPhone. On sale from 6.02pm (o2, geddit?) it's going to be 2 …
I love messing about with random free programs on the net. Yesterday I downloaded PocketPC CamTimer from virtual-gadgets.com (I've also added it here). It lets you take a picture at set intervals with your Windows Mobile. You could use this appplicati...
Meet the Samsung SPH-M4650. It looks a little like the SGH-i718 but this time you'll get Windows Mobile 6 and a faster CPU. The official name for this baby is the "SGH-M4650 Multi Touch... but.. errr.. there's no real multi-touch support. There is ins...
The Vodafone v1520 is now listed as coming soon on the Vodafone website. The new handset is built by Asus and has integrated GPS, WiFi, Bluetooth, MicroSD and a 2 megapixel camera. We're also hearing that the v1520 is pushed along by a Intel XScale PX...
When you want to connect to your Windows Mobile phone you've got a few options. You can either use ActiveSync via the supplied cable or you can remotely connect over the WiFi with applications like Pocket Controller. Now there's another way - how abou...
We reviewed the HTC Touch some time back and loved it, so it's great to see more and more networks picking it up around the globe. Now customers in Canada can grab this handset $199.99 provided you sign up to a whacking 3-year contract. You can also g...
A few weeks back we started our fundraising drive to buy a new server. The good news is that we're now nearly at our target. After the £100 donation we're now on a mission to reach that target - plus any extra cash will go straight into paying …
We were lucky enough to get the HTC Touch Dual in to review a few weeks back. If you liked in then hold tight, because the new November Orange catalogue has it in the "Coming Soon" section. The Touch Dual is given the name "HTC P5500 Dual Touch" …
Remember the iMate Ultimate 6150 and 8150 devices we reviewed? Well, as usual we'd managed to get them early, and we're extremely happy to see that iMate have now improved the build-quality further and changed them to a sultry black shade. We've man...
Many thanks once again for your messages of sympathy and comments in the forum. It really means a lot to me and my family. The burial took place yesterday and, thanks to your donations over the last few days, I've added an extra £100 to the Air Ambul...
It's scary writing reviews at times. Every time I write one about a HTC device it seems that I only have to wait a few months before HTC come along with another device which is even better and addresses any issues I may have had. Take, for example, …
Many thanks for your understanding and thoughtful comments over the last few difficult days. At times like this it's reasurring to have so many people supporting me and I really appreciate it. I still have a very difficult day coming up on Thursday bu...
