- Motorola CEO: 'Android-Based Devices' On Track For Late 2009
Posted By Eric Zeman
Today Motorola filed its first quarter earnings. Buried within the report
was a juicy gem about the company's plans regarding Android devices, which
CEO Sanjay Jha said will be available in time for the holidays. (Oh, and
handset sales fell a whopping 45%.)

- BlackBerry Storm OS 4.7.0.141 Leaked Onto Interwebs
Posted By Eric Zeman
What feels like mere hours after we first learned about the existence of Storm firmware 4.7.0.141, it appears the Internet Gods have delivered it for your downloading pleasure.

- A Plethora Of Pre News
Posted By Marin Perez
I'm still waiting for some official word on when Palm's Pre is coming out,
but a few items leaked this week that may point to a price. There's also
speculation that Palm may cap the stock of the handset when it's released
to create a buss. That's right, we may face Wii-like scarcities.

- The Palm Pre Costs Less To Build Than The iPhone, Storm And G1
Posted By Eric Zeman
The price point of the Palm Pre has been a much-debated topic ever since
the phone was announced. iSuppli hasn't coughed up that nugget of information,
but has estimated that the Pre costs a mere $138 to manufacture.

- Microsoft: We're Not Making A Zune Phone For Verizon Wireless
Posted By Eric Zeman
The Internet has been rife with a bevy of reports recently concerning new
smartphone hardware (codename "Pink") from Microsoft. In response to the
reports, Microsoft said in plain English: "Microsoft is not going into the
phone hardware business."

- Microsoft's Tellme Voice Service For Windows Mobile
By Ed Hansberry
Microsoft's Tellme subsidiary is announcing a voice service that will be
available to carriers and manufacturers for free for use on Windows Mobile
6.5 this fall. Users will be able to push a button on their phone to
activate the service and say things like "Text Steve Jones" and the device
would open up the SMS application, create a new message and pre-address
it to Steve Jones.

- Motorola Ex-CFO Drama Continues
Posted By Eric Zeman
Today, Motorola's former CFO, Paul Liska, formally denied the allegations
that he ran a data scrubber on his company-issued laptop to destroy evidence.
Meanwhile, Motorola calls the whole thing an "extortion campaign."
