HTC Peep – The bird is back

Coolsmartphone News

In the last few minutes it seems that HTC Peep is starting to burst back into life. The HTC Twitter client, which packed up on September 1st, got apparently fixed by Twitter. However, after another “we’ve fixed some login issues” message from Twitter this afternoon it seems that the Peep client is back.

You guys are reporting that the timeline has popped back with some reporting that they’re had to clear their cache but it certainly does look positive after 3 days in the wilderness.

Thanks to everyone who contacted us on this.

“We know that we face tough competitors and that we are playing catch-up, but we like our chances. We took a different approach and created a totally fresh mobile experience that connects you to the things you care about most, rather than creating more distance between you and your life.”

Samsung Galaxy Tab and Toshiba Folio 100 handled

September 3rd, 2010 AnimeTrader No comments

Coolsmartphone News

There’s a good video on the BBC website which takes a look at the new 7″ Samsung Galaxy Tab we covered yesterday. There’s a hands-on and a wry smile from Carey McGregor (Senior Product Manager at Samsung) when BBC reporter Rory Cellan-Jones states, “It looks lovely, but it looks just like a shrunken iPad though”.

The Folio 100, from Toshiba, is also shown and comes with Android 2.2, Flash 10.1 support and a miniHDMI port. It can boot in just 30 seconds (thanks to the Nvidia Tegra 2 CPU) and has a 10″ 1024×600 resolution screen. It has 7 hours of battery life, SD card reader, 1.3MP camera and more. Strangely Toshiba show it viewing a video promoting the iPad :)

Samsung cautious about Windows Phone 7

September 3rd, 2010 AnimeTrader No comments

Posted in Windows Mobile

Coolsmartphone News

Last month we spotted a Samsung prototype running Windows Phone 7. Samsung are confirmed as hardware partners for the new OS alongside LG, HTC, Asus and Dell. However, after Motorola decided not to take part it’s a little worrying to see Samsung now stating that the new Windows Phone 7 Operating System only has “…some professional, specialized demand..”.

There is perhaps some confusion on the target market as the new Windows Phone OS is aimed squarely at consumers, not just the business / professional category. Speaking just a day after the OS was finished, YH Lee, Head of Marketing at Samsung Mobile, also stated..

“We are Prioritizing our Android platform. Android is very open and flexible, and there is a consumer demand for it.”

Only one Samsung handset is slated to run Windows Phone 7 currently. We’re assuming that Samsung are just being cautious as Windows Phone 7 has no sales figures currently.

Coolsmartphone News

Today saw the official announcement of the Samsung Galaxy Tab which is their 7 inch tablet device which many will compare to the Apple iPad and more so than ever thanks to the rather expensive price point the Tab has been set.

Online retailer eXpansys now has the Tab listed for launch on 11th October for a price of £679.99 for a 16GB model, the 32GB model still has no price or availability yet,

This version of the Tab will be network unlocked so you can use any network of your choice, we already reported this morning that Vodafone have agreed to stock the device so expect this to come at a much lower cost when you sign up to a contract.
