Android products also being outsold by Apple iPhone and Apple iPad



 A new report are that the AT&T and Verizon, older versions of Apple's mobile devices are outselling some current Android models.Our April checks indicated continued strong demand for the iPhone 3GS at AT&T and iPad 1 at Verizon, as these older generation products with reduced prices often outsold new Android products. We believe this highlights Apple's significant competitive advantage, and these older products help Apple offer a tiered pricing strategy at key channels."

 IT was discovered that at AT&T stores, the $49 Apple iPhone 3GS was outselling the Android powered HTC Inspire 4G and the Motorola ATRIX 4G. The analyst also discovered that Android is taking market share away from Windows Phone 7 handsets, but is not outselling the Apple iPhone. He also notes that while Android as a whole has outsold the iPhone because of the large amount of different phones using Google's open source OS, there has been no other single smartphone that has outsold Apple's device.

 Despite reports that the HTC ThunderBolt is also outselling the Apple iPhone 4 at Verizon,reports says that it is the latter that is the top seller for Big Red. He expects that to continue throughout the year as customer's existing 2 year contracts expire, allowing them to purchase Apple's phone with a subsidy.

Google Nexus S 4G releasing maintenance packs:



 Not only is the newly available Samsung Replenish getting an unexpected software update, but it also appears that the Google Nexus S 4G is also getting its own maintenance update.

 The latest maintenance release for the pure Google device for Sprint carries along only some “enhancements to improve performance.” However, it’s not exactly stated     that what for those enhancements exactly are – but either way, it’s probably an ideal decision to install it. From the sound of it all, the whole download and installation process should take roughly 5 minutes to fully complete, but it’s still a good idea to back things up prior to installation.

 Again, if you haven’t received this notification, you can manually initiate this process by simply going into the Android settings menu. Some might question why we’re seeing an update so soon for the device, but it seems that it’s better to release it after launch as opposed to delaying the handset’s release altogether.

Pre Order of HTC ChaCha and HTC Salsa inUK, launch on June 26


   Facebook optimized HTC phones - the HTC ChaCha and the HTC Salsa - were made official. A few months have passed since then, but the good news is that we have got the release details of these handsets that they will be launched on June 26 in Britain and are already available for pre-order.

 HTC ChaCha, which offers (among other things) a Display of 2.6-inch screen, 600MHz Qualcomm MSM7227 processor, Android version 2.3 plus HTC Sense and, while the HTC Salsa, which packs pretty much the same goodies - except for the screen, which is larger at 3.4-inch and sans the keyboard.



 We expecting that, you're must waiting for these phone's.

Samsung Galaxy S II Demand About 3 Million Already All Over the World



 The Samsung Galaxy S II is a very hot and is on everyone's mind and for all the right reasons - it is thin, fast, and with innovative display, and a top-notch camera that captures smooth Full HD video. 

 It  seems that carriers all over the world are agree with that assessment, since word broke out they have preordered about 3 million units of the good stuff already. Samsung says this is one of the highest preorder numbers they've had for shipping to carriers, and that is equally as impressive, considering how many cheap feature phones the company sometimes spits out.

 We have to thank the marketing effort behind its predecessor - the Samsung Galaxy S which was launched in 120 countries on 140 carriers as well, trailblazing the path to stardom for the Samsung Galaxy S II. Of course, three million is the number that will be shipped to carriers - how many of those will be bought by end clients remains to be seen, but observing the excitement that the handset generates, we wouldn't doubt Samsung's goal to sell at least 10 million Galaxy S II phones by year-end.

Mock Symbian Home screens PR 3.0 updated:



 Nokia (Germany) has a mock Symbian homescreens floating around on its website, slapped on rotating Nokia N8, Nokia E7 and Nokia C7. 

 Now, resizable widgets are something that is supposedly coming after the Symbian PR 2.0, or Anna update, which should arrive pretty soon for all Symbian^3 phones, but the ones here look different than what we've seen so far. 

 The free form widgets UI could either be a botched Photoshop attempt, or a harbinger of what's to come in the next big Symbian update that aims to deal with the unwieldy interface once and for all.

 For now only the clock's ticking on the simulation screens, and the widgets themselves are just links, but if this is a precursor to fall-bound Symbian PR 3.0, or Belle, do you like what you are seeing so far.
