Motorola Sold 250,000 Xooms This Quarter
According to a Motorola filing , the company sold 250,000 this quarter, more than the targeted 100,000 predicted a few months ago but still far less than any other tablet. To put this into perspective, the iPad 2 sold 300,000 units in the first weekend. Obviously the biggest issue here is the Verizon two-year contract tie-in, a situation that initially squelched a great deal of interest from the average consumer. However, expect a Wi-Fi version to begin selling in May fron Verizon and Sprint , a happenstance ...

webOS Developers Rejoice! The App Catalog Gets A Promo Code System

Casio G’zOne Commando from Verizon Wireless
We spotted the Casio G’zOne Commando from Verizon Wireless in an image leak last week, and here we are with an official announcement of the rugged handset arriving for real. Ready to be deployed even in harsh environments, the Commando can be said to be a mobile office that sports high security features for secure corporate email (how about Google Docs running on it?), coupled with Wi-Fi connectivity that delivers high-speed Internet access wherever you are, with XT9 ...

The most common request was for more information and guidance about designing for Android 3.0, aka Honeycomb. Mutual Mobile has wasted no time in responding to these requests, and are today releasing version 1.1 of their Android Design Guidelines . The update “introduces some of the OS’s unique new features such as the Action Bar and Notification/Status bar along with how ...

LG licenses ARM Cortex-A15 and Mali-T604 graphics, starts scheming up mobile processors of its own
Some of LG's brightest attractions at the moment are the dual-core Optimus 2X and Optimus 3D smartphones and similarly equipped Optimus Pad tablet. The only problem with them?

So what else could LG possibly ...
