Review HTC MDA Compact IV

I just had a chance to look over the HTC MDA Compact IV phone exclusive to T-Mobile Europe. The phone is very nicely designed with a great set of features. It has a very smooth look to it when you first look at the screen and buttons. Its clean and very “ipod” esque but I [...]

Nextwave Selling Its Spectrum

It almost sounds dirty lol. It looks like Nextwave will be selling the already purchased spectrum from the FCC. They own the spectrums in the 1.7GhZ, 2.5GhZ bands. They will honor 251 million residents with their delicious waves. Lets see who has the monopolizes the bandwidth and hopefully they feel as though its an amazing [...]

My Switch Part 2

So I did take the plunge and let me tell you, Sprint customer service reeks. I had to be on the phone for a little over 4 hours total to get what I needed done (number porting, setting up another phone, fixing one, etc). Most of that sould have been done when I ordered it [...]

Tethering

If you haven’t done so, it behooves you to take a quick trip to your favorite search engine and type in tethering plus your carrier. The reason? Because you can use it wherever you are and not have to pay for a 5 dollar latte and not get Internet access (sigh I hate that but [...]

Rouge Browsers Fighting Back

After the Iphone showed the world what a browser should look like, many people started thinking “hmm, perhaps my browser sucks” and you would have been right. The only decent browser at the time was the Internet explorer mobile. It reeked but we didn’t have anything to base it on. Until the Iphone browser came [...]

Their first all-aws network is in Oklahoma City. They already have 98 cell towers already up and will [...]

Cricket Launches the CDMA AWS

It looks like Cricket is already on the market to start using their already purchased AWS market. They will make the UTStarcom CDM 7126 available to Oklahoma and Las Vegas. They are looking to use their purchased market as much as possible apparently and I don’t blame them. I think this will definitely launch Cricket [...]

Alltel Buffet

It looks like Alltel has fallen in with the other companies and now offers a $99 dollar unlimited plan for its consumers. They stated that the plan, unfortunately, only provides voice access for its 99$ plan. They also continued on to say that their MyCircle network actually provides a better deal for consumers than the [...]

Sprints First EV-DO Rev. A Phone

It looks like the first phone to be EV-DO Rev. A compatible on the new sprint network is the Mogul. The new network is faster than the existing Rev. 0 network as it increases the speed for download between 600k to 1.4 mb d/l and around 400 k upload. This is the same network that [...]

Unlimited Plan + Tethering

If you now have any of the unlimited plans that are now out for many of the carriers, you might be wondering how you can maximize your usage of your plan. Did you know you can tether your phone to your laptop and use it as your main Internet line (which means no more playing [...]
