Now if you'd like your old first generation iPod touch to be a bit more... open, wait a little while and you can run Google's Android operating system on it.
Now the person who ported Android for the iPhone 2G and iPhone 3G is now working to bring Android OS to the first generation iPod touch. Obviously, you can't make calls on it, but then this is an exciting project if you'd like to run an operating system other than iPod OS on your iPod touch.
It's not quite ready for primetime though. From the developer's blog:
Meanwhile, I am working on some stuff that is slightly more fun. Last night, I brought ...

If you're planning to buy the Nexus One from Google's online store so you can get it contract-free, you well, you better act fast. Google will soon stop selling their flagship Android phone online. Don't think for a moment that this move means that Google is going to drop the Nexus One. This is merely a change in strategy.
It seems that Google has realized that people don't like to buy phones without seeing them first, so they're switching strategies and are selling the Nexus One via retail outlets.
From Google's official blog, the changes to Nexus One's availability are:
More retail availability. As we make Nexus One available in more countries ...

Oooh boy, Apple's legendary secrecy standards seem to be a little bit lax lately. You'd think they'd tighten up security after Gizmodo's now-legendary iPhone leak, which resulted in a collective gasp heard round the web, along with the obligatory lawsuits and raids. you'd think Apple would take precautions to keep this from happening again.
Apparently, another iPhone has been leaked and is being scrutinized by the Vietnamese blog Taoviet. And yes, you got it right: Vietnam. How the next generation iPhone landed in the hands of those guys is beyond me. Well, except for the fact that they allegedly paid $4,000 for it.
This iPhone seems to be a similar model from the ...

Finally, Nokia's Design by Community project is almost finished. If you don't remember what the project is about, it is Nokia's push to create the “ultimate concept device,” and they utilized Nokia fans so they'd know what people want.
Now they have a mock-up of the winning phone, and if Nokia manages to create this, I am going to be excited for this. You see, Nokia fans have dictated that the winning phone should have a 10mm thin Monoblock form factor. Also, it should have a 4-inch capacitive screen with a 16:9 aspect ratio, open source operating system, unlimited multitasking, Wi-Fi 802.11 n/b/g, USB 3.0, HDMI, Dolby surround sound, and an 8MP camera with 4X optical zoom, dual LED and ...
Give us a 4-inch smartphone with multiple OS support

Gravity may currently be the king of S60 Twitter applications, but the thing is it's not free. Also, there really is nothing that should stop any other app developer from making a Twitter application that can rival Gravity's reign on the Twitter S60 market. Okay, there's Tweets60, but I honestly find it to be a bit clunky and once you're used to Gravity's gorgeous interface, everything else just pales in comparison.
Nokia finally decides to join in the mobile social messaging space with Nokia Messaging for Social Networks Beta. From Symbian World:
The Nokia Beta Labs have announced that Nokia Messaging for Social Networks Beta is now available for ...

So, the lucky guys at Gizmodo were able to get their hands on an iPhone 4. There's a bit of a story behind their acquisition. Apparently, Apple has been testing the new iPhone in the wild already, and one of Apple's employees have, well, misplaced one. A lucky soul found the iPhone in a bar in Redwood City, and was sent to Gizmodo. Wow.
Now, we really can't be 100% sure that this is indeed the new iPhone. But there are lots of clues that point to it being real. There really is an Apple employee who reported that he lost a prototype iPhone. It was covered in a rubberized casing so it can be disguised as an iPhone 3GS. Right ...

The Microsoft Kin: Wait, what about Windows Phone 7?
Posted by Ade as Cellphones
So Microsoft just announced not just one but two new phones. Calling them Kin One and Kin Two (no, seriously), these are Windows Phones designed specifically for people who are actively navigating their social lives. Brought to life through partnerships with Verizon Wireless, Vodafone and Sharp Corporation, KIN is designed to be the ultimate social experience that blends the phone, online services and the PC with breakthrough new experiences called the Loop, Spot and Studio. KIN will be exclusively available from Verizon Wireless in the U.S. beginning in May and from Vodafone this autumn in Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom.
The thing is, didn't just Microsoft announce Windows Phone 7? ...

Nokia Beta Labs have released a set of widgets that will monitor the way you use your phone and adapt to your habits. These small apps, called Nokia Bots, will then use the data they've gained from your activity and they will personalize your phone according to your habits.
These are the Nokia Bots currently available:
Profile Bot – which automatically changes profiles and is therefore handy for daily and/or weekly meetings.
Alarm Bot – learns how you set your daily alarms and suggesting alarm and profile changes nightly.
Shortcut Bot – instead of you picking apps for the shortcut widget, let this Nokia Bot pick apps for you. It learns which apps you use ...

Nokia is bent on creating the "ultimate concept device," and it enlisted the help of a very dedicated group of supporters - the internet nerds! The Finnish company's latest project, called "Design By Community," is aimed to ask cellphone users to help them create a smartphone device for the future.
Nokia’s Design by Community
Posted by Ade as Cellphones
The problem with the current system is that phones are designed by a committee and there's no feedback from the users during the design process if they like the phone's features or not. Design by Community aims to fix just that. Cellphone users can vote on the following criteria:
Display and user interface – voting opens March 15
How much does size actually matter? ...

Opera Mobile 10 and Mini 5 released
Posted by Ade as Cellphones
I have a Nokia E63, and believe me, the WebKit-based default Nokia browser just can't cut it when I need to go online if I need to check out a couple of things. I've downloaded and installed quite a number of browsers, and I really had a hard time looking for one browser that's good enough. Fortunately, we have Opera Mobile 10 beta, which was pretty light, fast, and really functional. Tabbed browsing on a phone? You got it.
So when I heard that Opera is finally releasing the final stable versions of Opera Mobile 10 and Opera Mini 5, I went to their site and downloaded it right away. How could ...
