Another Leaked Sidekick 3 Picture

The excitement we feel every time we’re sent another leaked Sidekick 3 photo is just as intense as seeing our mailboxes full of pictures from the girl from Canada we met at camp that summer after 8th grade. And just like with Clarissa, we can’t wait to get our grubby little hands all over this…

The Palm OS-packing Treo 700p is now available from Verizon Wireless, where the cost of entry is $499 with a $100 rebate.

Motorola Q and Samsung i-320 Video

Taken at Israel Tech Ed last week, the video shows off both the Motorola Q and the Samsung i-320. The Q’s UI looks pretty responsive, and the screen’s quality is pretty good.

Motorola Q Not Really Launching On Verizon Next Week?

Either Motorola CEO Ed Zander is confused, or some spokesperson is going to get a whuppin’. https://gizmodo.com/motorola-q-to-launch-next-week-174293 Contradicting Zander’s statements earlier this week, a Verizon spokesperson claimed that there is going to be no launch event next week. Perhaps Zander was using the announcement to force Verizon’s hand early, maybe as a result of the…

Motorola Q Pimped by Verizon

The hype run-up to the Motorola Q continues, where Verizon Wireless taunts us with its flash-y site chirping about how the “weight is over.” We’re thinking the phone will be available next week, but there’s no evidence on this site revealing when we’ll see the “world’s slimmest smartphone” from Verizon Wireless, which will be the…

Stop Laughing At The N-Gage, Dammit!

We’ve been using Nokia’s N-Gage as a punchline to (extremely nerdy) jokes for years now, ever since we first heard about Sidetalking—long before the N-Gage actually hit the market and, you know, failed.
