Wood Cutting Board is Really a Wireless Charging Mat
By now, you’ve probably seen some of those wireless charging mats by companies like PowerMat. The idea is that you can simply place your iPod, Nintendo DS, or other portable devices on the mat and they’ll start charging without having to connect a cable. The trouble is that these big black mats can be glaringly [...]

Video: Android Powers 7-Inch Camangi WebStation Tablet
Google Android isn’t just for smartphones, you know. We’ve already seen some companies attempt to port the mobile operating system into a netbook form and now we’re getting an Android-powered take on what a Mac Tablet might look like. Except, you know, it’s wrapped all up in Google goodness.
It’s not like the Camangi WebStation is [...]

No Barnes & Noble Nook eBook Reader Until Next Year
You see? This is why it pays to get your holiday shopping done early. Right when the Barnes & Noble Nook was announced late last month, we had a good feeling that it’d be a hot seller among Christmas shoppers. A couple of weeks ago, we learned that it was more popular than expected. Well, [...]

Apple iPhone Coming to Virgin Mobile Next Year
Seems like the Cupertino floodgates are opening north of the border. It wasn’t all that long ago that Rogers Wireless (and its canine companion Fido) was the only place where Canadians could officially get their hands on the Apple iPhone. Now, you can head on over and grab the same phone from Bell Mobility or [...]

Ex-Alltel Employees Given Pink Slip by Verizon
Well, there’s some good news and some bad news here for all the Alltel employees in the audience. As you may recall, Verizon Wireless went ahead and purchased Alltel some time back, leaving us to wonder what would become of all the existing Alltel employees and infrastructure. Not surprisingly, there is some definite redundancy across [...]

Colorware Ships Parts Only for BlackBerry Curve 8900
Most cell phone geeks are already familiar with the Colorware service. In a nutshell, you ship your treasured handset (they also do notebooks and other gadgetry) over to their warehouse and they’ll outfit it with a fancy paint job featuring just about any color that you can imagine. The trouble with this service, up until [...]

Custom Android UI Named Sony Ericsson Nexus
Arguably, HTC started this whole thing when the company made the TouchFLO user interface overlay for its Windows Mobile phones. Samsung did its thing with TouchWiz and then HTC created the Sense UI for its Android phones. We already knew that the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10 would come equipped with its own custom UI and [...]

BlackBerry Storm2 9550 Arrives at Telus Mobility
Did you like the first BlackBerry Storm from Telus? Maybe you’d be more interested in its successor, the appropriately named BlackBerry Storm2 9550. Telus Mobility has officially launched his upgraded smartphone and it comes with just about everything that you’re expecting.
I remember when the Storm2 was little more than a rumor and people were saying [...]

Amazon Kindle Finally Comes to Canada
The original Amazon Kindle only worked within the United States and then we were introduced to the Kindle US & International Wireless edition for some foreign roaming. Unfortunately, you still needed to be in the United States to get it. That has now changed. Canada, as well as several other countries around the world, can [...]

No More System Access Fee for Bell Too
The whole System Access Fee (SAF) thing has always been a sore spot for Canadians. It was originally introduced to help carriers recoup the cost of building up their networks, but now it is largely perceived as an unfair cash grab. Thankfully, we could be slicing the final head off this hideous three-headed beast.
Well, sort [...]
