AT&T debuts AppCenter store for HTML5 and Android apps

Posted on Jan 11, 2012 by MG3

Filed in: AT&T

Today at CES in Las Vegas, wireless carrier AT&T announced a new magazine-style application store, AppCenter, that will help get HTML5 and Android apps to smartphone users. AT&T hopes that this will increase HTML-5 applications and be easily linked to Google's Android Market for developers. Unlike other app stores, the AT&T AppCenter will drive users to existing app stores, like Android Market, so that developers don't have to worry about yet another application store that they have to place their applications on. The beta of the AT&T App Center launches in beta form today.

The Hand-Stretching Samsung Galaxy Note Finds an LTE Home at AT&T

The Hand-Stretching Samsung Galaxy Note Finds an LTE Home at AT&T

Posted on Jan 10, 2012 by MG1

Samsung Galaxy Note made a splash in Europe back in September of last year. Was it a gigantic phone or a tiny tablet? No one knew! Well, the debate is about to come to U.S. soil.
The phone (yes, it's a phone, but just barely) has a 5.3-inch screen. It is, indeed huge. For me, it was usable, but I've got ape-hands. It would make our Kyle Wagner, with his famously tiny hands, explode. I was able to type on it one-handed, but even for me the far side of the screen was a bit of a stretch. The screen is, however, very pretty with 1280x800 HD Super AMOLED resolution. Bright colors, inky blacks. Very nice.

AT&T announces Pantech Burst and Samsung Exhilarate LTE phones, both cost less than $50

Posted on Jan 10, 2012 by MG1

AT&T just announced at its Developer Summit two LTE phones that will cost less than $50 on contract. First up is the Pantech Burst, which will have a 4-inch Super AMOLED screen, and comes in either black or red. There's also the Samsung Exhilarate, which is being described as the first "sustainable" LTE device. AT&T says the phone is constructed from 80 percent recycled post-consumer materials, and it has an Eco calendar and calculator to help you figure out how green (or not) you are.
You'll be able to purchase the Pantech Burst alongside the Element tablet (which was also announced today) for $249.99 if you buy a contract for both devices. Clearly, AT&T is looking to lower the price of ent...

AT&T serving up wireless data for the PlayStation Vita

AT&T serving up wireless data for the PlayStation Vita

Posted on Jan 10, 2012 by MG3

AT&T has announced it will be the exclusive U.S. wireless carrier for Sony’s upcoming PlayStation Vita release. AT&T will serve up two flavors of its data plans for the new 3G-enabled portable gaming unit – 250 MB for $14.99 and 2GB for $25. While that may seem steep, particularly if you factor in the already high hardware and software costs that are speculated to be the cause of the Vita’s poor sales overseas, the good news is both plans are month-to-month with no contract commitments required.

NYT confirms Nokia Lumia 900 announcement at CES 2012, headed to AT&T

Posted on Jan 09, 2012 by MG1

Rumors about Nokia's unannounced "Ace" LTE Windows Phone have been building, and now the handset is all-but-official: The New York Times cites sources who say that Nokia plans to unveil the Lumia 900 on Monday at CES, and that it will be headed to AT&T in the US. We still don't have confirmation on specs, but if the rumors hold, we're looking at a 4.3-inch WVGA display, 512MB of RAM, and 8-megapixel camera, all running Windows Phone 7.5 Mango. We reached out to Microsoft for comment, and a company spokesperson had this to say:

Pantech Element poster spied at AT&T store, launch coming next week for $300?

Pantech Element poster spied at AT&T store, launch coming next week for $300?

Posted on Jan 09, 2012 by MG3

We've had a pretty good inkling that the Pantech Element LTE tablet would make an appearance at CES in the coming days, and our confidence level just rose another notch. It appears that one corporate-owned AT&T store got the official marketing material for the new tablet a few days prior to the device's launch and was a little too eager to put it on display ahead of time. The tipster also spilled the beans on a few specs, lending credence to earlier rumors: it's a waterproof 8-inch tablet with a 1.5GHz CPU, 16GB of internal storage and LTE, and will go for $300 on a two-year commitment ($450 without).

Qualcomm powered Windows 8 tablets with 4G LTE shown right before CES

Posted on Jan 09, 2012 by MG3

Filed in: TabletsAT&T

If you’re in Las Vegas this week, chances are you’re there to attend the 2012 Consumer Electronics Show. It’s the largest tech show in North America and it’s an event that separates the men from the boys in terms of who can best cover the insane amount of products being announced seemingly every 15 seconds. But did you know that right before CES, on January 8th and 9th, AT&T held their 2012 Developers Summit? That event didn’t get a lot of attention, despite being in Las Vegas, but one important tidbit that’s slipped out is that AT&T held a joint session with Qualcomm to discuss 4G LTE enabled Windows 8 tablets.
