    Motorola officially announces its weirdo square phone, the Flipout

    Motorola love trying out new form factors almost as much as they love SHOUTING, and today's announcement combines both those past times. While we spotted the square phone last month, it's always good to have something officially confirmed. So, without further ado, I present to you the FLIPOUT (also the last time I write it in all caps).

    BlackBerry Bold 9800 Slider shows up again, shows off its browser

    Man. Unless they're trying to get this thing to leak all over the Internet, RIM is having one hell of a time keeping the BlackBerry Bold 9800 a secret. The prettier of two experimental form factors for RIM (with the uglier one being.. this thing), the Bold 9800 Slider has been leaking out in photos and videos for weeks now. Aaaand it has leaked again, this time showing the smallest of peeks at RIM's new WebKit browser.

  • HTC ‘Vision’ finally bringing high-end QWERTY to Android?

    HTC ‘Vision’ finally bringing high-end QWERTY to Android?

    For a company with as rich of a reputation for landscape QWERTY sliders as HTC has, you'd think they'd be tripping over themselves to release a truly high-end Android phone with a keyboard, but not so much -- the closest they've come so far would be the midrange myTouch 3G Slide, and that puppy ain't even out yet. We broke the news last night about three seemingly new names for upcoming HTC devices -- Vision, LED, and Glacier -- and Dutch site Tweakers.net is now reporting on a user agent profile for the Vision that lists the device featuring that mythical holy trinity: WVGA display, QWERTY, and Android. Furthermore, they've got the director of HTC Benelux on record saying that they're planning more Android phones with keyboards -- so that's a Good Thing to hear at a time when huge slates seem to be stealing the show in every segment of the market. With the Nexus One, Desire, Droid Incredible, and EVO 4G all alive and well, we think these guys would be well-served to play with other form factors for a minute or two, yeah?

    The Lenovo C200 offers NVIDIA Ion 2, dual-core Atom for $499

    Lenovo's latest flatscreen all-in-one just broke cover and it's an Intel Nvidia mash-up made in heaven. Behind the 16:9 18.5-inch 1366x768 screen hides a dual-core Intel Atom D510 CPU, which isn't too bad on its own, but the optional touchscreen and GeForce G210 GPU makes it into a solid multipurpose desktop. Of course you're not going to be running Crysis 2 on it, but it should handle full-screen Farmville without sweating.

But judging from (and speculating from) some comments that Ballmer said at a recent UW speech, there's a pretty good chance that there may be some new kinds of Xboxen coming to your television.
