Looks like Samsung is getting some love this time (you know it’s always about HTC when it comes to WinMo tweaking). HTC’s TouchFLO 3D UI has been ported to the Samsung Omnia II (and Omnia Pro), unfortunately it’s the old 1.3 version which came out a year agon on the Touch HD.
All the info can [...]
Starting today you will be able to grab a Motorola CLIQ in T-Mobile’s stores (if you didn’t already get it online). I know that’s it’s all about the Motorola Droid lately, but let’s not foget that the the CLIQ has Moto’s nice BLUR UI which hopefully will be upgradeable to Android 2.0 in the near [...]
According to Pocketnow who talked to two mobile phone retailers the Samsung Omnia Pro B7610 may be finally released this month. Ironically the device was supposed to come out before the Omnia II which is now available all over the world (well not in the US yet). The Giorgio Armani version isn’t out yet AFAIK. [...]

It look like HTC did some fancy trick to make multi-touch available on a whole lot of Windows Mobile applications (that don’t natively support it) as seen in the video below showing some HTC HD2 pinch-zooming action in the Pocket Informant application. We’ve already seen the same thing in a previous video (here) where pinch-zooming [...]
Contrary to what we thought, accoding to the presentation slide above,Acer’s first Android smartphone will only be clocked at 768Mhz instead of the default 1Ghz clock speed of the SnapDragon chipset. Strangely Acer neTouch is clocked @ 1Ghz same for the Toshiba TG01 and HTC HD2. I wonder why the Liquid is clocked lower..
