Yet again we have another snapshot of the Bionic, this time SpeedTest.net's Android app. It realy isn't the best pic we've seen so far of Verizon's yet to be released LTE phone, but it once again shows just how fast … [Read more...]

So  far, the only smartphones on Verizon's network that have LTE capabilities are the LG Revolution, HTC Thunderbolt, and the DROID Charge. These devices all use a full SIM card to activate the LTE radio, and if this screenshot is correct, they may be the only ones.

geekaphone-function-550x309

The Samsung Galaxy SII will be hitting the states, we just have no idea when. A while back an accessory website seemingly gave away the names of the still nameless carrier versions of the SII, and the Function was born. There hasn't been much else to go on since then, except rumors that the phone was having difficulty getting approval by the … [Read more...]

verizon-data-plans

We knew this day would come. With the HTC Thunderbolt on its way (hopefully in a couple of weeks), we knew Verizon was going to probably be changing up their current data plans. As you can see, the $15 data package for smartphones is probably getting the axe, which I don't think will matter for most people anyway. They have also raised the bar on … [Read more...]
