…well, at least in certain sense of the word. A report generated by a Sprint-branded Treo 800w has shown up on DSLReports.com. The speed test reveals a couple of interesting tidbits about the upcoming handset. The phone will be running Internet Explorer 7.1, a much needed overhaul to the company’s current mobile browser. We’re assuming […]

We just got word that some of T-Mobile’s upcoming phones are delayed or scrapped altogether. The Nokia 5310 Xpress Music handset which replaces the current Nokia 5300 is now slated for release in early June. It will launch in red, orange, and purple colors. The more higher-end Nokia 5610 Xpress Music has also had a […]

It’s getting so close we can touch it. A mysterious "iPhone Black" popped up on AT&T’s website recently when you select what type of phone you have. It’s listed alongside the traditional iPhone, so anyone want to place any bets on what this bad boy is? We’ll help you out…iPhone 3G. Has to be!
Thanks, E!

That didn’t take too long, did it? We finally have it people — it’s alive and confirmed. The BlackBerry Bold is indeed the official name for the BlackBerry 9000 device and it should be available starting "this summer." AT&T is the first carrier to launch, but there is also a 1700MHz model coming which will […]

Like we told you yesterday, the BlackBerry Curve has finally made it’s way to Sprint. The device can be ordered online and through telesales, though we’re not exactly sure when the handset will begin showing up in Sprint stores. You have to admit that $179.99 price is attractive. But, it must irk all you CDMA […]

Our AT&T ninjas are at it again! This time they’ve dropped us a note that the Nokia E71 will be making its way to the carrier. We’re working on getting pictures of the AT&T-branded Nokia E71, but until then, call this a rumor. You know, so you don’t totally hate us if this doesn’t turn […]

We’ve got a ton of tips over the past couple days surrounding the BlackBerry Curve’s debut on Sprint. Most if not all of those pointed to an official May 9th release date. Here’s a flyer detailing the release date, handset pricing, and specs. The no contract price of the Curve is $599.99! Don’t get too […]

Looking for a litle Verizon Curve fix before Friday’s official launch? We’ve got you covered. Nothing earth shattering here, though. Just a couple of pictures to verify that this thing is, in fact, real and that it will be launching soon never hurt anyone. Specs remain the same, and a year or so late arrival, […]

Well, here’s the story. Let’s start this off by saying that we think this might be a little bit too early, but you never know with Apple. Anyways, we told y’all last year before the first iPhone launched that AT&T employees were not allowed to take vacations from June 15th to July 15th. AT&T reps […]

There was a little bit of confusion with the 3G-less BlackBerry 9000 we posted. We heard two different codenames: Javelin and Niagara. Well, we were just told some more information on both devices. It seems the BlackBerry codenamed Niagara is actually an EV-DO device slated to hit Verizon in May of 2009. That seems a […]

Ok, here’s the full scoop: T-Mobile’s 3G data network has launched in New York City as we all know. Officially according to T-Mobile, this does include UMTS/HSDPA data. T-Mo goes on to say that by the end of the year they expect most major metropolitan cities to have coverage, but for now, it’s just New […]

It’s ok, you can say it… Finally! Verizon Wireless customers won’t have to wait much longer for the BlackBerry Curve 8330 that we’ve known to be coming to the nation’s largest CDMA carrier for quite some time. Of course this news is a bit overshadowed by all of the BlackBerry juice we’ve been feeding you […]

 
This one will stay firmly in the rumor pile for the time being, but a report out of Germany points to an impending T-Mobile takeover of Sprint Wireless. On the surface, the move would make sense. T-Mobile has struggled to gain traction against its bigger competitors, with a sub-par coverage footprint and device selection that […]
