Gizmodo has dug up this graphic from OnlineMBA.com going through the app markets on iPhone, Android, Palm, Blackberry, WebOS and Windows Mobile. Some very interesting stats here. And as we now, these markets are in their infancy…
Because of it’s sheer size I’m cutting this up so hit the break to see it full sized with the remainder of the stats:
Conflipper is a household name in the PPC community. Not just for cooking ROMs but also for his ability to get his hands on ROMs before anyone else and to delve deep into them while always sharing the goodies he found. In fact, recently he’s the one who has been telling us what devices HTC … Read more
Ari at Wirefly posted another “Schmackdown” between the Motorola Droid X (Verizon) and the Droid Incredible which makes it’s home over at Verizon also and is made by HTC. I am a huge HTC Fan but after using my HD2 there is no way I could go back to a 3.7 inch screen that the … Read more

I thought this was interesting but is limited to our European readers only at this time. Our Friends at Proporta who have been bringing us their fine cases for a wide range of devices, have announced they will be the exclusive distributor for Sygic’s Mobile Maps Software. Mobile Maps is limited to the whole of Europe
Proporta will initially be bringing two Sygic products to market: Mobile Maps 10 Europe (RRP £69.99) and Mobile Maps 10 UK & Ireland (RRP £39.99). It will be developing UK retail sales in close association with Brightpoint GB, with whom Proporta has established a strong partnership in the mobile phone sector.
I emailed Proporta about any future plans to release Mobile Maps by Sygic here in the US and I will let everyone know when I get a heads up.

Here’s a video of Android 2.2 Froyo running on a HTC HD2. Everything seems relatively smooth with some minor lag in the browser, but it doesn’t look that bad. There was an audio hiccup at the end of the video, not sure what’s the cause but it looks promising for the HD2. At least you … Read more
By now you probably saw the release from Google talking about Android App Inventor. If you don’t know, this lets anyone write an ‘app’ for Android.
