Microsoft may be saving most of its Windows Phone 7 Series news for MIX the week after next (at least that’s what we’ve heard whispers about), but it looks like it’s still dishing out a few more details beforehand, as evidenced by a short demonstration Microsoft’s Charlie Kindel gave to CNET . Nothing major like a confirmation of HD2 support, but we do get a glimpse of a few apps we haven’t seen before (including a flashlight, level, and weather app — all supposedly “trivial” to build thanks to XNA and Silverlight ), and a look at some new screens for various applications we have seen, including a better look at the Xbox Live hub. Head on past the break to check out the video for yourself. ... Read More...

Entelligence is a column by technology strategist and author Michael Gartenberg, a man whose desire for a delicious cup of coffee and a quality New York bagel is dwarfed only by his passion for tech. In these articles, he’ll explore where our industry is and where it’s going — on both micro and macro levels — with the unique wit and insight only he can provide. ... Read More...

Well, that was quick: thanks to some new information we’ve received, we’re now able to confirm that the Motorola i1 is indeed the so-called Opus One that the company has been rumored to preparing for its iDEN carrier partners with Android on board — and it’s exactly the leaked device we saw back in December . We don’t know much in the way of specs, but it sounds like we should expect Blur running atop Android 1.5 (sigh), a 3 megapixel cam, and a possible announcement within a couple weeks — a time frame that would line up splendidly with CTIA toward the end of the month. Naturally, you can bet your little green robot we’ll be there. ... Read More...

Note to Microsoft, HP, Dell, and whoever else wants to get in the next-gen tablet game: your concepts are nice — even spectacular, in the case of Courier — but Apple’s about to actually ship a product, and investors are taking note. AAPL shares hit a record high of $219.36 this afternoon after the news that iPad pre-orders would begin on March 12 with an April 3rd delivery day, and they closed at $218.95, which is up around four percent. That’s got us curious: given the choice between actually purchasing the iPad and twiddling your thumbs waiting for unannounced, unpriced, and even possibly un- real devices like the Dell Mini 5 , the HP Slate , or the Courier , are you taking the sure thing or holding out for your vaporous dream device...

So-called “e-dictionaries” don’t often make the trip over here, but iriver broke that trend with its D5 clamshell device, which suggests that it just might also do the same with its new D1000 follow-up. Of course, like its predecessor, this device is quite a bit more than just a dictionary, with it packing a 4.3-inch 480 x 272 touch screen, 8GB or 16GB of storage, built-in WiFi, a DMB TV tuner, 720p video output, and a full range of media player features. ...

Spring Design’s Alex e-reader has certainly had one of the more interesting product launches in recent years and, with an actual release now seemingly imminent , it’s finally turned up in the FCC’s hands. There’s not many surprises left at this point, but the agency has at least treated us to a peek inside the device, and offered us our first look at the device’s user manual. Head on past the break for a few more exciting images, and hit up the link below for the complete rundown, FCC style... Read More...
