Judge sides with Telus, says Rogers’ ‘most reliable’ claim reeks of half-truths
Posted on November 24, 2009 | No CommentsWireless networks in the States have a storied history of throwing fits over each others' "most" and "best" claims -- and now they're really getting into it up north, too, seeing how Telus just lit up a shiny new 21Mbps HSPA network that seems to be matching or besting Rogers' existing infrastructure in many ways. As is all too often the case, the spat has ended up down in the court system where Telus is bellyaching that Rogers' claims of running "Canada's most reliable" and "fastest" airwaves have been invalid as of November 5, when its competing hardware went live (funny -- and telling -- that it didn't bother levying any complaints back in the CDMA days). Anyhow, a judge has just ruled -- apparently after analyzing paperwork filed by both sides -- that "the present network technology is at least equivalent between Rogers and Telus," invalidating Rogers' reliability claim. Rogers isn't too happy about this (though they've tiptoed away from speed claims in their latest advertising, smartly) and intends to appeal with new courtroom drama getting ready to roll on Friday. So, we turn it over to our Canadian readers: who's really offering the best service right now in the trenches?Judge sides with Telus, says Rogers' 'most reliable' claim reeks of half-truths originally appeared on Engadget Mobile on Tue, 24 Nov 2009 23:54:00 EST.

LG to announce Snapdragon-boasting Android phone, Korea-bound in 2010
Posted on November 6, 2009 | No CommentsFiled under: Handsets, LG, Android
It's looking like LG will be offering an Android phone boasting Qualcomm's hot Snapdragon chip -- which has recently squeezed its way into handsets such as the Xperia X10 and Acer's Liquid. The new LG mobile phone is expected for the Korean market in the second quarter of 2010. While the device is still unnamed and specs are still a mystery, LG is promising that the device will be "more mature" than the GW620 Eve, an Android device announced earlier this week for Rogers in Canada. There's no solid word on what availability of the device will be like, though LG says its considering possibilities outside of Korea.

Looking to make sure they're not entirely overshadowed by Google's much hyped Nexus One announcement later today, Rogers Canada has squeaked out a last minute Android-related press release -- fortunately for them, it's a handset we're still pretty excited about. 

Rogers Canada has let the proverbial ninja out of the dojo by posting a "comparison chat" of multiple iPhone models, including the elusive 8GB 3GS. Why are they selling the 8GB? Who knows. Maybe it's a little bit cheaper and maybe Apple just had extra 8GB chips. Or maybe Canadians, being socialists, don't like digital media.
UPDATE - This was a website mistake. It's being fixed right now. There is no 8GB 3GS.
