It’s rumoured to be a Windows Phone 7 announcement, specifically one for North America where Nokia is mostly ignored. If they do there’ll be an explosion in the tech press… and I’ll be liberally hitting ‘Mark All [...]

Reader Sami has written-in with a question… My company kindly provides me with a (limitless?) Vodafone dongle for my laptop so I can work on the go. I recently got a WiFi iPad and I’m finding it easier to carry and use but I have to be in a WiFi area to use it for [...]

Though I failed to acknowledge it, the search for my perfect handset ended about six months ago when I started using the Nexus One. I’ve spoken before about my new found love for Android (well, it was at the time) when I trialled the HTC Hero. In the end I found it lagged too much [...]
