Please check back for a review tomorrow………who am I kidding??? I will be up all night playing with this phone. There should be a review up around 3am. Peace out.

Blackberry Curve Released…..in Some Places

Well, apparently, the Blackberry Curve WAS released today as promised by AT&T. However, it seems that is only available online, via the 800 number and in selected stores(none which I called though). My friends at the Store told me they were informed, via conference call, that the phone will be in their location anywhere from tomorrow to next week. I did hold the dummy phone and it looks and feels incredible. It is definitely thinner and smaller then 8800. The only thing that bothered me a bit was that the keyboard is much smaller than it looked in pictures. Personally, I am torn between the Curve and the 8800. As soon as I get the Curve in hand, I will be taking pics of it from the AT&T Store along with a brief review.

Blackberry Curve Out Tommorrow???

According to AT&T and RIM, the Blackberry Curve is due out tomorrow in AT&T retail stores nationwide. The Curve sports a full QWERTY keyboard, 2 Megapixel camera, Bluettoth 2.0(including A2DP!), 3.5m jack(just like your ipod has) and noise cancellation. My question is………why all the confusion on the release dates? Is this supposed to surprise everyone and make them rush out and buy one? Probably.

 The long-awaited ROM update for the Treo 680 is finally here……for some. The update only applies to those Treos that are Cingular-branded, so all unlocked Treo owners are out of luck for the moment. Below is the excerpt from Palm’s site that details the issues addressed with the update:

The Palm Software Update for Palm Treo 680 Smartphone for AT&T offers these enhancements to your device:

  • Improved power management for better battery life.
  • Camera update for improved battery life (available previously as a standalone update).
  • Helps correct distorted characters that can occur in the title bar of the Phone application.
  • Helps fix device “freezing” that may occur under certain conditions.
  • System Lockout improvement for increased security.
  • Support for the new Daylight Saving Time legislation (available previously as a standalone update).
  • Provides better support for networks unique to some Caribbean, Latin American, and Asian countries.
  • Updates Cingular branding, replacing it with the new AT&T branding.

New T4 SHOW up on iTunes

img_0212.jpg

To update the post about trouble with the feed from my iWeb app, the feed from SwitchPod has been approved and should be available soon for subscription. There will be some confusion temporarily with more than 1 T4 Show in the iTunes Store. However, to make it easier, the new show is categorized under “gadgets” now. Also, when the search results come up, the new show is all caps i.e. T4 SHOW. You will also see 2 ads from SwitchPod in the episode listing. Thank you for your understanding and best of luck in your future iTunes Store endeavors.
