  • Android 2.2 Froyo source code available today

    Android 2.2 Froyo source code available today

    It's still not hitting the bulk of Nexus Ones as far as we can tell, but for what it's worth, Google has unleashed the source code for Android 2.2 today, which is a solid sign that the code's been bulletproofed to the Open Handset Alliance's satisfaction and is ready for deployment across a number of phones from different manufacturers and carriers. It's still ultimately up to a bunch of gatekeepers in suits to decide when various models will get the upgrade, but this is basically zero day -- so let the countdown begin.

  • Still Really Want An iPhone 4? Find $5,000, Head To eBay

    Still Really Want An iPhone 4? Find $5,000, Head To eBay

    As you may have heard, Apple completely blew through its pre-order launch day iPhone 4s in less than a day (and that was despite major technical issues with the ordering process). It has now blown through the second wave (due in early July) as well. The current shipping estimate if you order right now is July 14. Ugh. But if you absolutely want one at or around launch day, the Internet, as always, provides an option. Scanning eBay right now, there are roughly 400 iPhone 4s for sale (between the 16 GB and 32 GB models). Sure, the device isn't out yet, but people are willing to part with the device as soon as they get it on June 24. The question is: how much do you have to pay to get them to part with it? Currently, the cheapest ones are going for $550 -- and that's the $199 16 GB model. The cheapest 32 GB model? $799 -- a full $500 over the $299 retail price.

    PAS Brace-L: Yamaha’s cool, men-only electric bike

    We’ve covered plenty of electric bicycles from Japan in the past, but there's a significant problem with most of them: usually they're really ugly, for example this one or this model from Toshiba. But just today, Yamaha has announced [JP] the PAS Brace-L, a nice-looking electric bike that's specifically towards the young and male part of the population.

And today, the same company announced [press release in English] it will start accepting orders for another batch of three new 3D plasma TVs on July 1.

  • T-Mobile’s LG Sentio launching on June 30

    T-Mobile’s LG Sentio launching on June 30

    LG and T-Mobile had only been committing to a Summer release for their three-pack of new models, but now we've got a little more guidance on the most notable of the trio. The Sentio -- a low-end full touchscreen dumbphone with 3G and social networking goodies on board -- will be available on June 30 in all channels, so if you're a "connected socializer" aged 16 to 29 who's "in search of their first touchscreen phone," you might have a look. As long as you're cool with navy blue paired with silver accents, anyhow.

  • Gasp! AT&T stops selling the iPhone 3G because they’re “Out Of Stock”

    Gasp! AT&T stops selling the iPhone 3G because they’re “Out Of Stock”

    The horror! Days after the Apple Store pulled sales of the iPhone 3G from their online market, AT&T has disclosed to employees the iPhone 3G is now "Out of Stock". Employees are being told to direct customers to the iPhone 3GS. The fact that Apple's WWDC, the birth place of all new iPhones, goes down in 3 days is, of course, a complete coincidence.

    The Logitech Harmony Link for Google TV gets detailed

    Google TV is all about blurring the lines between the web and TV -- and ads of course. Logitech is playing a key role in this project by providing the oh-so-important remote interface, and the just-detailed Logitech Harmony Link goes way behind anything currently available.

  • Is this the Modu T-Phone? (update: yes!)

    Is this the Modu T-Phone? (update: yes!)

    Modu reminds us a bit of Neonode back in the day -- their products are virtually impossible to find and you don't hear about them terribly often, but when you do, it's almost always interesting news. We'd heard last year that the company would be following its first model with a touch-centric device, and TheGadgetSpot seems to have the straight dope on the new unit, said to be called "T-Phone" with a full touchscreen and a 3G radio. They don't have a date, but it seems Modu is looking at a retail price between $400 and $500 -- hopefully unsubsidized, and hopefully targeting a wider launch than the first time around.

    [Thanks, Itai]

    Update: Zach from Know Your Cell has pinged us to let us know that the T-Phone is definitely real -- it's pictured on Modu's site and is claimed to be the lightest touchscreen phone in the world (with a Guinness certification to back it up). It'll apparently have 2GB of internal storage along with microSD expansion and will be available both in 2G and 3G models, presumably for different parts of the world. No release date yet, unfortunately.

  • Via to flood the US market with five sub-$150 Android tablets by year’s end

    Via to flood the US market with five sub-$150 Android tablets by year’s end

    2010 was called the year of the tablet and Via might make that come true. The chip maker plans on releasing five tablets by the end of the year. The kicker is that these five models will cost between $100 and $150 -- or so says a Bloomberg report. These tablets are said to run Android and will be available in the states in the second half of the 2010. Via's upcoming tablets are of course in response to the iPad and is a classic CE move. Instead of producing a quality product, a company, in this case Via, is outing a whole range of low-cost (and likely cheap) alternatives.

    Inkia’s iPad clone, inPad, gets spec’d out

    The Inkia inPad is a shameless iPad clone right down to the bezel and name. We first spotted the clone a few weeks back but hardware details didn't accompany the pictures. Basically, a Chinese manufacturer got our attention by photocoping the iPad and installed Android. But we've kind of lost interest now that we know what's on the inside.
