One of my favorite things about having a Motorola Droid is that I feel like (as opposed to my previous Windows Mobile phone) I’ve got a large, growing application market constantly providing me with new apps in one place. Still, I can’t say that I magically find the best applications and games out there as [...]

My favorite thing about free products is the price – usually. SMSBackup for Android is an exception to this rule because I would pay real money in a heartbeat for an application as simple, efficient, and useful as this has proven to be to me. What this Android app does is allows me to back [...]

The Android Market is taking off. In March, over 9,000 applications hit the Android market, doubling the amount added the previous month, impressing Android users everywhere.

They transfer files relatively fast (compared to CD’s), happen to be extremely small and unobtrusive, and plug into almost any computer with a USB port. Personally, I have two flash drives on my keychain right now, and I can’t imagine how I ever [...]

With all the hype being generated by Android, Blackberry, and iPhones as of late, I’m sure quite a few Windows Mobile users have begun to feel a little left out. Hopefully the release of Windows Mobile 7 later this year (fingers crossed) will improve the situation, but until then I am here to tell give [...]
