Published on Monday, March 8, 2010 by Casey Chan BGR has heard some whispers that Verizon has started training employees on the Nexus One. When that happens, it typically means that a product launch is right around the corner as employees are getting ready to sell the device to customers in stores. But given that the Nexus One hasn't been your typical carrier branded smartphone, as in it wasn't available in carrier ...

Published on Monday, March 8, 2010 by Phil Nickinson Meet the new Skype, same as the old Skype. Except that this Skype is exclusive on Verizon (and is no longer welcome on Windows Mobile, apparently). But no bother. We've got the Android-powered Motorola Droid, Droid Eris and Devour on Big Red, so there will be plenty of VOIP calling to be had. If you're new to Skype and the whole Voice over IP (Internet Protocol)...

Published on Wednesday, March 3, 2010 by Phil Nickinson For all of you Verizon Droid Eris fans out there chomping at the bit for Android 2.1 and the new HTC Sense to be released for your phone, know that it's not far off. A build was leaked on XDA Developers (normally a home for GSM devices, but always friendly to HTC hackery) and subsequently deemed to appear to be genuine, albeit corrupt. But that never s...

Published on Wednesday, March 3, 2010 by Phil Nickinson Getting word this morning that those of you with Motorola Droids, the Droid Eris and just about any other device that connects to Verizon are having issues with data connections.

Published on Friday, February 26, 2010 by Erica Marchand  Drum roll, please ... We've known for a while that the Nexus One would be coming to Verizon. We just didn't know when. Well it seems that we have finally gotten a date. March 23 is the date that the much awaited Nexus One reportedly will be available. According to an anonymous source, speaking to NeoWin: The Nexus One, originally released on T-Mobile in Janua...

Published on Thursday, February 25, 2010 by Phil Nickinson BryonP points out in our forums that Best Buy Mobile is shipping the Verizon Motorola Devour on Feb. 25 ... which is today. You can snag it for $99.99 after the usual new activation/rebates/first-born, and free shipping is thrown in, too. If you're looking to get the Devour from an actual Verizon store, you're going to have to wait another week or so. [Best Buy via An...

Published on Wednesday, February 24, 2010 by Phil Nickinson There's little doubt that the HTC Incredible was at least being tested on Verizon -- we've already seen it with Verizon branding as it booted up. Now it's appeared in Verizon's inventory system, meaning a launch should be imminent. The two SKU numbers above apparently point to the launch kit (top) and the phone itself. Stay tuned, Big Red fans. [BerryScoop]...

Published on Tuesday, February 23, 2010 by Casey Chan  There are whispers that the first device to introduce the newly formed Skype and Verizon partnership will be the Saygus Vphone. We know the Vphone, it's the device that offered video calling (which would presumably work via Skype now), but we didn't really know Saygus, so we were cautious in judging the phone's potential.In short, it's a great idea, a video call...
