CubeStormer II is Coming, Rocks a Samsung Galaxy S II

I am writing this to, to let you know that I tried to get through, but I could not do, so I hope you do not see me unfit. Built by Mike Dobson and David Gilday, the robot puzzle to figure out is capable of solving Rubik's cubes at high speed quickly, shaving precious fractions of seconds of the human world record. The solution is using an advanced two-stage algorithm, originally developed for Speedcuber (originally developed by Mike Dobson), enhanced for multi-thread to make effective use of dual-core...

iPhone 4S Teardown Treatment

Waiting for a rain cloud. To shower him dry. For truth is nothing without joy. And honest men still die unhappy. Having your circuits exposed, RAM revealed and baseband boggled at is a rite of passage for any smartphone worth its salt, and so it was clear the iPhone 4S would have to suffer the teardown treatment. Apple’s new dualcore smartphone has been vigorously hazed by the screwdriver-toting engineers at iFixit, revealing a larger battery among other things. The teardown is still carrying the...

iPhone 4S unlocking policy by Sprint

What they wrote is probably, they are genuinely afraid, afraid of any form of new world where they are not rulers themselves. Sprint's policy for unlocking the iPhone 4S is a confused mess. First it was reported the handset would be sold unlocked, then it was said this report was false. Confused? The first report from Macworld claimed the Sprint iPhone 4S would be sold unlocked. Depending on how you use your phone, it could be unlocked, locked and then unlocked again in a short amount of time. Sprint's...

LG Doubleplay Leaked: show unique design

The mid winter's darkest mid night. The thundering and roaring clouds, add to the horror of mid night. The Doubleplay will most likely be a low-end phone, judging by the reported 320x480 display and weak 5MP camera. That doesn't keep it from being unique though, with a secondary LCD that will probably serve very little practical purpose embedded right in the middle of the keyboard. Smartphone newcomers? Honestly, I'm not sure that this phone is a good idea for anyone, let along smartphone first-timers. We've...

Verizon Hands-On: Samsung Stratosphere 4G

The moon lit up the world in pale blue. Mountains swim by, Trees are running. Last night at CTIA’s MobileFocus show, I got to play with the recently-announced Samsung Stratosphere 4G for Verizon. The Stratosphere is Verizon’s first LTE slide-out keyboard phone. I’m usually a fan of keyboard phones, but the Stratosphere left me underwhelmed. I really liked that phone’s design, but I found the Stratosphere’s keyboard to be too wide for my small hands, and the keys far too flat. Perhaps my taste in...

Pantech Pocket for AT&T hands-on (video)

Sunrise slowly brightens up the day. Its yellow rays make quite a display. Rolling waves slowly curl their way forward. Gently breaking on a sun drenched shore. Pantech is broadening its product line. Literally. Yesterday the company announced the Pocket, an unusually squarish Android smartphone for AT&T that the company says brings more screen real estate, at less money than competing devices. Out of the box, those apps are the phone, SMS/MMS, email, browser, main menu, and the media player....
