Mysterious Motorola Slider Makes Another, More In-Focus, Appearance

An extremely blurry picture of a Droid-eyed slider made the rounds a month or so back — so blurry, in fact, that I’m pretty sure they added blur in Photoshop. Well, some in-focus shots of the device have surfaced, and while it doesn’t appear to have outward Droid branding, it does have the familiar eye. Not a lot of information is available, unfortunately. But I will say that it’s a nicer-looking slider device than the Blackberry Torch , which looks busy, chromey, and chubby in comparison. Who ...
BlackBerry Torch Review

The Blackberry Torch has been launched recently with relatively little fanfare, but signs point to the fact that it has taken the position of "best blackberry ever" from the
Bold 9700. The Torch is now available on AT&T's network and other carriers will undoubtedly follow. Because it features a touch screen, a physical keyboard and an updated OS
+ browser, the Blackberry Torch goes above and beyond any ...
RIM to Apple: Man up and leave us out of it

RIM has issued a statement regarding Apple’s explanation of the antenna issue from Friday , which of course used a Blackberry as well as other phones to demonstrate signal loss. I’ll let it speak for itself: Apple’s attempt to draw RIM into Apple’s self-made debacle is unacceptable. Apple’s claims about RIM products appear to be deliberate attempts to distort the public’s understanding of an antenna design issue and to deflect attention from Apple’s difficult situation. RIM is a global leader in antenna design and has been successfully ...

I trust Google with a lot of things, but when in doubt I always fall back on good-old common sense. Lauren Rosenberg did not. She walked onto a highway because Google told her to and got hit by a car.
Rosenberg, who apparently takes things very literally, was reading the directions on her Blackberry and thus wasn't privy to the warning that shows up when you access walking directions on a computer:
Walking directions ...

Blackberry Pearl 8130 Cell Phone Review–A Serious Kludge

I’ve had a rough time with Blackberry products in the past–their controls are often heavily flawed and their content offerings are staid, boring, and often less than complete. The Blackberry Pearl 8130 is one of the least pleasant Blackberry items I’ve ever handled, and thanks go out to the folks at Wirefly for sending me one to try.
