The Android and WP7 Fragmentation Conversation

by

We talk about this generic term of ‘fragmentation’ all the time but sometimes someone gets into the nitty gritty of what this really means. You know, to a developer who is forced to try to write an app on any possible screen resolution and for any hardware specs. This whole Android fragmentation thing reminds me of Windows Mobile actually and it’s one of the reasons devs flocked. It’s also why WP7 is shooting for consistency in hopes that devs will flock in the opposite direction. Anyway, Kevin Hoffman wrote what amounts to a short masterpiece on what this whole fragmentation thing is about and why it is such a detriment to Android and so important for WP7. Here’s the text in full (since they don’t have ads on their site but Kevin, if you’re out there, I’ll gladly just link you if that’s your preference). Without further ado, enjoy the read:

My HD2 Featuring NRG’s GTX ROM

by

My daily weapon of choice is none other than the beautiful T-Mobile HD2. Not that this device needs much of an introduction, but I’ll go ahead and point out a thing or two for those of you who have been residing in a cave for the past few months.

The HD2 is outfitted with a huge 4.3 inch multi touch screen, a 1GHz snapdragon processor and the ability to hold the phone however you want to make phone calls. There is a laundry list of other really important features I should be mentioning, but oh well! Huge screen and 1GHz processor sums it up nicely.

Directly from T-Mobile, the phone comes loaded with the latest and greatest version of HTC’s Sense UI. I doubt most will ever understand how big a deal this is, but considering this thing runs windows mobile 6.5, a top notch UI like Sense is more than welcome!

The Vibrant which also has the Super AMOLED 4 inch screen, 1 GHz processor, 5 megapixel camera, and 16 … Read more

Mobility Digest Review: Motorola H17txt with MotoSpeak Bluetooth Headset

by

Today for review I have a bluetooth headset from Motorola called the H17txt, odd name yes, but it’s much motobt12 more than just a headset. This specific headset features MotoSpeak or the ability for you to listen to text messages and emails sent to you in the headset. While you’re driving or whatever you’re doing, when you get a message it will be read to you right through the headset. It works with either Android or Blackberry phones, and since I don’t have a BlackBerry I’m using my Android phone, specifically the Motorola Cliq XT. The software is very configurable with many options, but the downside is that to get full functionality you’ll need to get the full version which will cost you $13.95. I found the ‘lite’ version to be more than adequate though for my uses. Anyway, read on to learn more about the H17txt and MotoSpeak…
