- T-Mobile: Most Sidekick User Data Recovered
Posted By Eric Zeman
Today T-Mobile posted yet another update about the on-going Sidekick data disaster story, but now the news is looking pretty good. According to T-Mobile "most, if not all" Sidekick user data has been recovered.

Posted By Eric Zeman
A few interesting stories have surfaced in recent days regarding the iPhone. First, a developer is saying that Apple is nearly ready to introduce an FM radio tuner application for the iPhone. Second, newer iPhone 3GS models appear to be resistant to jailbreaking.

- Google's Android Eclair Unveiled
Posted By Ed Hansberry
Just a few months ago Google finished off Donut, the latest version of Android. Now, a giant eclair has been seen at the Google offices. Nothing is official, but it is likely that the newest revision of the Android platform is just around the corner.

- Walt Mossberg Reviews The BlackBerry Storm 2
Posted By Eric Zeman
Yesterday, the New York Times may have broken news of the BlackBerry Storm 2's existence, but the Wall Street Journal's Walt Mossberg actually got to review it. He published his review today. Find out what he has to say about this sequel to RIM's first touch phone.

- How To Effectively Use Your Cell Phone After An Earthquake
Posted By Eric Zeman
Verizon Wireless periodically sends out press releases with information so banal, you have to wonder why it wastes the time and effort. The information it shares today -- about how best to use your cell phone after an earthquake -- is actually pretty useful.

- New Wi-Fi Tech Will Let Devices Connect Without Hotspots
Posted By Eric Zeman
The Wi-Fi Alliance announced that it is working on new Wi-Fi technology that will let devices skip the hotspot and connect directly to one another. The spec will be ready by mid-2010, and should be compatible with existing hardware.

- Will The Sidekick Disaster Affect Windows Mobile?
Posted By Ed Hansberry
We still don't know the cause of the problem that caused thousands of Sidekick users to lose contacts, photos, appointments and more. Microsoft has bee mum on the issue, which is a bad thing. Full disclosure wins more respect from interested parties than silence, but that is the subject of another blog post. The Sidekick brand is almost surely doomed because of this, but will Windows Mobile be affected as well given both platforms share the same owner?

- Verizon Wireless CEO Outs The BlackBerry Storm 2
Posted By Eric Zeman
Verizon Wireless -- whether by design or accident, I can't tell -- just announced the BlackBerry Storm 2. In an editorial piece written by the <i>New York Times</i>, Verizon Wireless CEO Lowell McAdam admitted that he's been carrying the Storm 2 around for several weeks, and even showed it off to people in New York City.
