SlingPlayer Mobile For IPhone, SlingPlayer For Mac HD Make Debuts
Filed under: Multimedia, Software, Apple, OS X Remember that proof-of-concept you saw way back in June of last year? You know, that one involving SlingPlayer Mobile for iPhone? Here at Macworld, Sling Media is doing its darnedest to take the spotlight away from the looming Apple keynote by announcing that said app is almost ready for consumption. It'll be demonstrating a functional version in San ...

Android-powered Kogan Agora Meets Mr. Blurrycam On Way To CES Debut
Filed under: Handsets, Others, GSM, EDGE, HSDPA, UMTS, Android Okay, yes, we were mad skeptical that the Agora would ever see the light of day, and you know what? This is one situation where we're absolutely delighted to be proven wrong. Kogan's homegrown Android handset just got pictured in the wild -- the first time we've seen anything but a render -- on its way to a supposed CES debut. Rest ass...

LG Celebrates 5 Million Viewtys In 14 Months
Filed under: Handsets, LG Touchscreen, 3.5G, 5-megapixel autofocus camera -- what's there not to like? It's a winning formula, obviously, as evidenced by LG's announcement that they've managed to push some 5 million Viewty handsets around the globe since the series' launch a little over a year ago. North America sadly excluded, variants of the Viewty have graced large swaths of Europe and Asia, an...

T-Mobile's BlackBerry Curve 8900 Seemingly Pegged For February 11
Filed under: Handsets, RIM, T-Mobile, GSM, EDGE Product delays are the greasy, disgusting lubricant that keep the wheels of the consumer electronics world turning, so when we hear of something being pushed back a week, a month, or a quarter, we really don't think much of it. Moving a launch up, though -- well, that's a totally different ball game, and it always brings a smile to our faces. Word on...

Sharp's SH810C Brings Japanese Specs To China
When we say "854 x 480 display and an 8-megapixel camera," what's the first thought that comes to mind? "Japan," of course, and history would certain lend credence to that knee-jerk word association. Sharp's expanding its high-spec horizons just a tad, though, with the SH810C -- a 3-inch wide VGA beast with a penchant for high-res snapshots that's actually going to end up gracing Chinese markets,...

Mobile Market Grinding To A Halt In First Half, Year Uncertain Overall; Nokia Could Win
Filed under: Misc Though wireless is probably better positioned to weather a historically weak economy than many other industries, it's not bulletproof by any stretch of the imagination -- and following years of double-digit year-over-year growth, a slowdown of some sort is all but inevitable. The extent of the slowdown is a subject of endless debate among analysts, with some suggesting year-end c...

Bureaucratic Drama: India Wants To Double 3G License Prices
Filed under: UMTSJust as carriers (and would-be carriers) were likely scraping up the necessary 20 billion rupees to plunk down for a national 3G license over in India, the government wants to switch things up double down. The country's Finance Ministry has apparently asked the Department of Telecom to ask for some 40 billion rupees as a minimum bid price now -- that's about $840 million for those...

Keepin' It Real Fake, Part CLXXVI: IPhone Air Jockeys For "best Ripoff Ever" Award
Filed under: Handsets, Others, Apple, OS X For those with a whiteboard full of Apple rumors, you'll been keenly aware of the fact that the whole iPhone Air terminology has been tossed around before in a joking manner. This, however, is not a joke. In fact, it's a very real KIRF, and it's possibly one of the most awesome we've ever seen. We mean, who'd ever want an iPhone nano when one could have -...

Serv O'Beer Pours When IPhone Accelerometer Tells It To
Filed under: Peripherals, Misc, Apple Now that the holiday season is officially over (CES notwithstanding), there's officially no better time to get inebriated and wash away the sorrows of not having another government-recognized holiday for like, ever. After you've drug that dead tree out to the roadside and filled a few buckets with tears, why not try constructing your very Serv O'Beer in order ...

Red IPhone 3G Is Real Like Unicorns And World Peace
Filed under: Handsets, Apple Apple's corporate font isn't Arial, if you catch our drift.[Via NowhereElse]Red iPhone 3G is real like unicorns and world peace originally appeared on Engadget Mobile on Mon, 05 Jan 2009 02:25:00 EST.

Verizon And Alltel To Join In Holy Matrimony January 9th
Filed under: Alltel, Verizon Wireless Following a good half year of courtship while the regulatory miscellany ran its course, Verizon's finally ready to take the plunge and call this $5.9 billion deal done. The combined juggernaut will amass a staggering 78 million subscribers, putting it roughly 3 million ahead of its closest rival, AT&T, though it'll do so at the cost of assuming some $22.9 ...

Unconfirmed Details Flow About Palm's CES-bound Nova Phone
Filed under: Handsets, Software, Palm, Palm OSBear in mind that this could be complete rubbish, but unconfirmed reports from "trusted sources" have reportedly stated that Palm's first Nova-based handset will tout a full QWERTY keyboard that slides down beneath a touchscreen (is your imagination running wild yet?). Moreover (and more importantly), the fresh operating system is being described as "a...

UIQ Out Of Money, Liquidation Imminent
Filed under: SymbianThe writing's been on the wall for most of 2008, but it's now very, very official: UIQ is dead. The company's parents are unwilling (and / or unable) to pump any additional money into the failing software outfit, and considering that S60 has inherited the throne within the Symbian Foundation, Sony Ericsson and Motorola have abandoned the platform, and all of its employees have ...

Orange Could Be Dropping The BlackBerry Bold... Forever
Filed under: Handsets, RIM, Orange, GSM, EDGE, HSDPA The first time an unruly kid acts up in school, you just throw him in detention. The second time, you tell him to find another institution to be educated at. The same theory apparently holds true in the mobile realm, as Orange has had just about enough of the BlackBerry Bold's inexplicable hang-ups. A recent writeup over at the Telegraph has it ...

T-Mobile-branded 7510 Supernova Revealed On Nokia's Website
Filed under: Handsets, Nokia, GSM, EDGE Want to "add a little fun to your social life"? Of course you do, and Nokia thinks that an American rendition of the 7510 Supernova is just what the doctor ordered. Unfortunately, AWS 3G apparently has nothing to do with adding said fun -- the T-Mobile version of the 7510 is EDGE-only, just like its international cousin -- but you'll get a fashion-forward fl...

Sprint Hopeful To Take WiMAX Live In Chicago By End Of 2009
Filed under: Sprint, WiMAX We'd kill to understand the politics, technical issues, or combination thereof that are responsible for stopping Sprint from taking its long-completed Chicago WiMAX footprint live. Not only has the launch now missed its 2008 target window -- at this point, the company is merely saying that it's hopeful to launch the network "in the latter half of the year," where "year" ...

Huawei's UMG181 USB Modem Headed For T-Mobile (thanks, FCC!)
Filed under: Peripherals, Others, T-Mobile, GSM, EDGE, HSDPA Ready for a little AWS 3G action via USB stick? Oh, yeah? Then have a look at what just landed in the FCC's database: Huawei's UMG181. The USB mobile broadband modem should operate just fine on T-Mobile's US network, pulling down gigabyte after gigabyte onto your laptop and / or desktop. Outside of that, details are remarkably scant, but...

Nokia's Comes With Music Service Said To Be Selling "okay"
Filed under: Multimedia, Nokia It's a tough time to be selling mobile phones, let alone mobile phone add-ons, and that's evidenced by a recent report that Nokia's Comes With Music service is simply doing so-so. A Financial Times piece on Nokia's ability to survive the current economy briefly mentions the CwM service, quoting an unnamed source as saying that "initial sales had been okay, but not ea...

O2 Sees A Record 166 Million Text Messages Fly During New Year's Celebration
Filed under: Culture, Messaging, O2If Americans really send twice as many text messages as Europeans, we'd hate to see the figures from the Big 4 here in the States. According to O2 UK, a record 166 million text messages were sent over its network in a 24-hour period that ended at 7:30AM on January 1, 2009. For those not exactly near their abacus, that breaks down to around 1,900 messages per seco...

Softbank's IPhone 1seg Tuner / Battery Charger Gets Unboxed
Filed under: Multimedia, Peripherals, Softbank Mobile, Apple If you're American, don't even pretend you care about this. 'Cause you don't care about mobile TV at all, and we've got the facts to prove it. For those parked in Japan, though, you have every right to get jazzed. Softbank's 1seg TV tuner / battery charger has finally been loosed on the carrier's home turf, and the lucky cats over at DVI...

Sony Ericsson's C510 Kate Caught Lookin' Fly On Camera
Filed under: Handsets, Sony Ericsson, GSM, EDGE, HSDPA Pardon us a second while we fan away some of this sweat, but Sony Ericsson's C510 Kate is looking mighty, mighty fine. DailyMobile has graciously hosted up a gaggle of hands-on images, and we're not sure if it's the brushed aluminum or the brushed aluminum, but something about this thing definitely has a hold on us. Swoon over the images yours...

FCC Fridays
Filed under: Features We here at Engadget Mobile tend to spend a lot of way too much time poring over the latest FCC filings, be it on the net or directly on the ol' Federal Communications Commission's site. Since we couldn't possibly (want to) cover all the stuff that goes down there, we've gathered up all the raw info you may want (but probably don't need). Enjoy!PhonesRead - Samsung SGH-A657Rea...

Samsung's R470 Looks Destined For US Cellular
Filed under: Handsets, Samsung, CDMA, US Cellular If we have to pick between a flip CDMA dumbphone and, say, a Touch Pro, we're going to take the Touch Pro ten times out of ten -- but as flip CDMA dumbphones go, this thing really isn't half bad looking at all. The Samsung R470 just passed FCC muster this week, and as Phone Scoop astutely notes, the manual's mention of "easyedge" indicates that the...

Fun Rumor Du Jour: BlackBerry Bold Coming To Sprint This Quarter
Filed under: Handsets, RIM, Sprint, EV-DO, CDMA We're hearing from a source -- a source who's pegged big stuff before, we'd like to add -- that Sprint will be replacing its BlackBerry 8830 this quarter with a CDMA version of the Bold. The move would certainly make sense, seeing how the Bold is essentially a direct replacement for the 8800 series (though this could be bad news for those who appreci...

IPhone 3G Unlock Revised, Now With Less Beta
Filed under: Software, Apple, OS X The iPhone Dev-Team works in mysterious ways, but it also works in quick ways. Granted, the iPhone 3G's initial unlock took way longer than anyone would've liked, but when reports started surfacing that it wasn't working particularly well after the first beta release earlier in the week, they appear to have worked doubletime to get a better version into circulati...

Motorola Aura Gets Unboxed
Filed under: Handsets, Motorola We've seen it up close and even knocked-off already, but when it comes to a $2,000 phone, we're guessing that a proper unboxing is as high on your list of must-sees as it is on ours. Thankfully, the folks at T3 have come through and done the honors and, as far as unboxings go, this one certainly doesn't disappoint. As you can see above, the phone comes packed in a r...

Verizon Offloading Pearls For A Jackson
Filed under: Handsets, RIM, Verizon Wireless, EV-DO, CDMA The age of the ultra-cheap (and non-repulsive) smartphone is officially upon us, and Verizon would like to throw its hat into the ring by offering the BlackBerry Pearl 8130 for the ridiculously low price of $19.99 on contract after $100 mail-in rebate "while supplies last." We'd obviously rather be able to slap down twenty right in the stor...

Nokia 1680 Comes To Canada By Way Of 7-Eleven
Filed under: Handsets, Nokia, GSM How do you say "boring" in Canadian? The Nokia 1680 is a good guess, especially considering that the company had intended this puppy for emerging markets -- which, nine times out of ten, is code for "boring." 7-Eleven's Speak Out Wireless is the upstanding organization that we have to thank for this particular launch, bundling the 1680 with 20 minutes of talk time...

Nokia N96 Gets Updated For The Yanks
Filed under: Software, Nokia, SymbianRemember that awesome firmware update for the N96 from a few weeks back? It's finally available for the North American version of the phone, carrying on Nokia's time-honored tradition of stringing North Americans along just a teensy bit longer than their European friends. The platform now rests at v12.043, bringing better image quality from the camera, better B...

Mysterious Pink IPhone 3G Hits EBay, Cue Onslaught Of Rumors
Filed under: Handsets, O2, Apple Say wha'?! An iPhone in a hue other than black, white, or silver? While a red model has been rumored since before the 3G even launched, we've never thought about a pink one -- let alone one hitting eBay. The text on the back of the device convinces us that this isn't a simple ColorWare job, but there aren't any photos of the back of the packaging either. Our take? ...
