    Gather round, everyone! It's time for this week's edition of "Good news, bad news" -- only this week, "bad news" is being supplanted by "terrible news". The good news: As we touched upon earlier, AT&T has finally confirmed that iPhone tethering will launch this summer. The bad terrible news: You'd have to be pretty crazy to bother with it.

  • Spankin’ new shot of the Motorola Shadow emerges, along with contradictory specs

    Spankin’ new shot of the Motorola Shadow emerges, along with contradictory specs

    Posted on May 26, 2010 | No Comments
    It seems like only hours ago that a leaked shot of the yet-to-be-announced Motorola Shadow emerged, yet here we are with another shot of the possible successor to the Droid. This time around there is no wacky story accompanying the leak, but this is the first shot of the device that hasn't been directly front-facing (you can clearly see the HDMI connector on the side there), so at least that's interesting.

Palm has just cut their ties with Modernista, the [...]

    So there you are, on your way home after purchasing the brand new smart phone you’ve been wanting for weeks. You’re reading the specs on the side; “Supports microSD cards up to 32 Gigabytes”, it boasts. “32 Gigabytes? That’s like a million!” you think to yourself as you pull up your handset’s browser.

    For sale on craigslist: a porn laptop for $30

    You have to give it up to this guy for being so honest. He clearly states how he has used the 8-year old laptop and is now offering it up to whoever brings him $30. That's not that bad of a deal if you look at his listing, which describes the years of dedication that went into crafting this notebook.

    T-Mobile Accidentally Posts Secret iPhone 3G S Specs

    Posted on June 10, 2009 | No Comments
    Apple has flatly refused to tell anyone just what chips lie inside the iPhone 3G S. In fact, while Apple insists that the “s” in 3G S stands for speed, it could equally well stand for secrecy. But T-Mobile in the Netherlands apparently didn’t get the memo, and has gone ahead and posted the hardware [...]
