HTC myTouch 4G gets an unofficial Gingerbread treat

The spate of leaked ROMs continues and now the official Gingerbread ROM for the 6-month-old T-Mobile myTouch 4G has surfaced.  The ROM is based on 2.3.3 and features something that has long been incorporated in other Cyanogenmod builds – quick access to toggle various connectivity options.  Other than that, there seems to be no major change and you will still have to live with Sense 2.1 instead of 3.0 which was the case with the

Samsung Galaxy S WiFi 4.0 and 5.0 get their official badges

Both the Galaxy S 4.0 and 5.0 are billed as media players, with the only difference between them being the display size with 4.0 obviously measuring in at 4 inches and the 5.0 going a bit bigger at 5 inches.  Other than that, the devices are similar to Samsung’s yesteryear star, the Galaxy S, but without cellular connectivity.  The only lifeline to the interwebs on these two devices is WiFi and feature access to the

Motorola Atrix/Atrix 4G getting updated to Gingerbread soon

While the device is capable of blowing away its competitors in terms of sheer hardware power, the Atrix is flawed in one single aspect – no Gingerbread out of the box.  But the company seems to be doing the needful, according to Andrew Morley, VP of International Marketing, who thus spake just before the Atrix launch in the UK on Orange. Yes, there are. We haven’t announced timings but we have announced plans for intentions

BlackBerry PlayBook gets a video chat app

It seems that Droid users aren’t the only ones who will be able to video chat on their devices, as RIM has announced an app that does just the same for its PlayBook users.  As with GTalk, the PlayBook video chat application also uses the front-facing camera but with a vastly limited scope – the person on the other ends needs to have RIM’s tablet too.  Moreover, the app only works with WiFi connections which
