Sony Ericsson Xperia Arc Gets Camera Video Demo

URL:  http://www.intomobile.com/2011/01/18/sony-ercisson-xper… Sony Ericsson has to build back up their reputation for stellar hardware and cutting edge user experiences. The Xperia Arc is their opportunity to show us if the old SE is on its way back. September 2010 Sony Ericsson announced they would no longer be supporting the Symbian operating system, a platform they released several devices such as the Satio over the years. Dropping Symbian and going full steam ahead with Android was a smart decision due to the mass market appeal Android is having. Symbian is a extremely capable mobile OS and has a lot to offer however lets be honest here, the experience just isn’t there with its current release. With…

T-Mobile Dell Streak expected February 2nd?

T-Mobile “will” launch the Dell Streak on February 2nd, 2011, or so the leaked document suggest. As much as I like this device I don’t trust Dell in the mobile market for what I feel to be good reason. They continue to put out outdated software and tend to lag behind getting firmware updates to their users. Having this in mind I feel it might affect the decision of some consumers whom have been burned in the past by Dell. What about you think? Will you buy a Dell Streak?

Motorola ATRIX to arrive March 1st?

After playing with the ATRIX 4G at CES this year I am excited to see what it brings to the table when it comes to Android based smartphones. I tend to not get excited about specs alone on any phone but this model stands out as being one that will shine. The ATRIX itself is an impressive phone but the real added value comes when you add the “optional” accessories such as the laptop dock as well as the multimedia dock. If you have ever wanted to fully utilize your phones hardware, this phone, with the added accessories, may be the one you have been waiting for. The real question is will consumers pony up…

Netflix ported WebKit to the PS3 to enable HTML5 goodies, a dynamically updatable UI

Amplify’d from www.engadget.com Netflix caused a lot of head scratching in October when it started rolling out its new, disc-free Netflix experience for the PS3. Namely, different people were getting a different UI, and there didn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason to the differentiation. Well, it turns out Netflix was flexing a bit of its HTML5 muscle, rapidly testing different experiences to see which ones worked best for users, all without having to push out app updates or back-end changes to accommodate its indecision. Apparently, Netflix’s engineers actually ported WebKit to the PS3 to make all this possible, and hopefully it’s a sign of things to come in the HTML5 iPhone, iPad, and…

Armed with five email accounts, two Google ( Gmail ), one corporate exchange, and two IMAP business accounts, let us see if Android could be a viable replacement for my loved BlackBerry.

Android has grown over the years proving to be a very popular smartphones solution. We now have several choices when it comes to smartphones. Depending on the requirements there is no clear cut wrong or right answer, it is a matter of choosing what works best for your use case. Some prefer simple interfaces with less customization while others don’t mind sacrificing user experience to gain more customization. In the end forget the hype, forget the specs, find what works for you and stick with it. When it comes to email and productivity I choose BlackBerry. Having a BlackBerry attached to my side gives me a feeling of being comfortably in touch, having faith I…

Trying out life with Android

As many of you know I typically use a BlackBerry device to manage the business side of my life. From email, contacts, calendar, and task management I have relied on BlackBerry for the simple reason that it works well and is trouble free. I will be the first to admit that there is a gap that BlackBerry cannot fill. When it comes to media, being consumption or production, BlackBerry is usually my last choice. For this very reason I carry a second phone, usually the iPhone 4 or Nokia N8, both which fill this gap nicely. Recently I have had the oportunity to use the T-Mobile G2, which if you aren’t aware, is an Android…
