Posted on Aug 18, 2011 by MG3

Verizon still commands a huge chunk of the Android market share in the U.S., but it showed some slow decline over the past few months while AT&T picked up a few percentage points. Chitika, the online advertising network, has always been in a unique position to dish out figures like these because of its presence on mobile-optimized websites. It’s not a completely accurate representation of the market, but it’s generally close enough.

Walmart puts the keyboard-less BlackBerry Torch 9850 up for pre-order

Posted on Aug 18, 2011 by MG3

Care for a taste of a keyboard-less 'Berry smartphone? Well, Walmart may have something that will spark your interest – the BlackBerry Torch 9850, which is currently available for pre-order on the retailer's web page.
Getting the smartphone will set you back $99, which is a pretty good offer considering that Sprint is expected to offer the device for $50 more. Of course, your signature on a 2-year agreement with Sprint will be required. Unfortunately, there are no details given in regards to the Torch 9850's shipping time frame, and since the carrier has yet to announce an official release date for the handset, when the order will be delivered to your doorstep is still anybody's guess.

HP Pre3 Makes Stealthy Entrance Into The European Market, U.S. To Follow

HP Pre3 Makes Stealthy Entrance Into The European Market, U.S. To Follow

Posted on Aug 18, 2011 by MG3

Filed in: Cell PhonesHPPre3

With the TouchPad price falling like a rock, you’d expect that its intended complementary device — and HP’s flagship phone — would launch with more fanfare. But instead HP let the device land in its EuroStore and gave a short response to PreCentral, the first publication to notice its availability. Either way, the most important thing is that the carrier-free smartphone is ready to roll.
