The coolest things for the coolest phones
Google’s forthcoming Android mobile OS has been romantically involved with more handset manufacturers than Kate Moss has with rock n roll musicians. Which is why we are greeting the rumor that Dell is set to partner with Google to launch an Android focused handset with a raised eyebrow and a non-committal shrug.

The Mozilla Foundation is continuing its fine work to bring the Firefox web browser to Windows Mobile (and Symbian too? Please? Pretty please?).

Sorry, my geekometer just exploded. In a good way. The latest iPhone Web App to appear is a Star Trek tricorder simulator. You jab the touchscreen buttons, and different stuff comes up that relates to biological info, planetary surfaces, and foxy female aliens who need to be taught the meaning of love via a great [...]
Sony Ericsson has revealed the next stage in the evolution of its PlayNow arena mobile music download service. Deals with 10 major record labels have been struck which will add over five million new and mostly DRM-free tracks to the PlayNow arena catalog.

Piper Jaffray analyst Gene Munster has written a research note speculating that Apple will expand its iPod Touch range with [...]
You might own an iPhone, but that doesn’t stop you being an out-of-shape, lazy, good-for-nothing slob. No matter what Steve Jobs tells you. However, thankfully someone’s seen the iPhone’s potential to help keep you in shape. No, not because you can’t spend the £269 you paid for it on crisps.
