    Any rumor of Future Global, LTE, NFC 4"+ HD....

    It looks to me like the phones lists Rumored, Available etc, on this site are not updated as they used to be. Anyone know of a rumored ICS, Global, LTE, NFC, 4"+ HD, HDMI, 8mp camera, at least Dual-core phone by Moto? Would like to make a change to a bigger screen from my D2G in the next 6...

    Manufacturer UI comparisons/analysis?

    There is something I find missing in all the blogs and sites regarding Android. No one seems to have done an in depth comparison of manufacturer UIs. What I find in reviews is "brand X's phone uses their own UI called _X_ on top of the OS..." And then user comments generally revolve around...

    Upcoming Verizon global phones?

    Are any of Verizon's upcoming mega-phones global? I would really like a bigger screen and LTE, but I will not give up global capability. My D2G serves me well, and so far I find Motorola equipment to be really durable. However, the Bionic is not global, and reports on the screen compare it to...

What struck me was the amount of apps or widgets for things I'll never use cluttering the screens. Can these be removed or is this all linked to the OS? Is this what people are...

    Droid X contacts upload to Car bluetooth?

    While checking out the DX at V, I met someone who had a question that no one could answer. He has 1500 contacts in his BB. However, the BB OS5 allows filters/groups for the contacts. He has one called "Car" with 12 numbers that he calls often. BB allows the upload/transfer of individual...

    Android "world" phone?

    I have a Blackberry Storm 1 (yes, I'm one of the fools that bought that mediocrity) I am quite satisfied with the Verizion service. Verizion international unlocked the phone for me for free and when I travel I am able to buy SIMs in the countries with GSM and use the phone. It is the only...
