Bandwidth And Security Issues Force Ban On The iPad From College Universities

If you are Apple you have to hate it when a good plan goes wrong. One of the primary marketing demographics for the new Apple iPad was students as a learning tool.

Men With iPhones Are More Attractive to Women Says European Study

Seldom a day goes by where the team at Mobility Digest doesn’t have at least one topic that gets replied to for most of the day. Lately it has been Doug Simmons and David  debating (cough) the differences between Android and Windows Mobile. Much of that discussion has found it’ way to our website for all to enjoy! (check it out:  A Little Note About That Android Rant & Buh Bye WinMo)

Today however, Kristofer sends out a Press Release stating that a European Survey found “Men With iPhones Are More Attractive to Women” and I thought I would share some of the comments made by the Mobility Digest Team until I realized that we would be closed down by the FCC for at least 20-30 rules violations!

Suffice to say that we all agreed this survey lacked any real substance and was basically, ah, full of crap. But I would be remiss if I didn’t share this survey and it could have helped one brother out there score some confidence with the ladies. So holster your iPhones men and take them to your favorite club and know that you now have a 54% better chance with the ladies!

Check out after the break for more details on this survey.

I Hate To Do This But…Is Lightning Real?

Just looking at the Dell Lightning leaks some more (sorry but it’s better than the other stuff on the net right now:)). Few weird things. It continually refers to the OS as “Windows Mobile 7”. That doesn’t exist. It’s Windows Phone 7. And yes, Windows Mobile appears 3 times on the same page. Then there … Read more

WP7 To Get Flash At Launch

If the Engadget Dell Lighting rumors are true then it will have “Full support of Flash, Flash Video and Silverlight.” This is slated for Q4 which matches the WP7 launch time. So if Flash is ready then (which is likely since Flash for Android will be ready before then), then the real question is – … Read more

Dell Lightning With WP7 Leaked…I Wet Myself

Engadget grabbed some pics of the Dell Lightning for WP7. Just look at her…so pretty:) Specs are everything you would want (with a slide-out QWERTY added). Snapdragon processor at 1ghz, 4.1” OLED WVGA, 5mp camera, 1gb flash, 512 RAM, 8gb storage on SD, GPS, accelerometer, GPS, compass, radio “full Flash support” (interesting) and both AT&T and TMo availability with a Q4 release. And when LTE is available, so is the Lightning. Check out the slides:

Google Maps gets Voice Search

On one of those rare occasions, Google is actually playing catch up with MS’s Bing (which I actually prefer and use as my primary search engine and map app). Google Maps now as Voice Search in their v4.1 for Windows Mobile. To search by voice, simply press the call hardware button, which will pull up … Read more

WP7 Ebook Available – More Coming Next Week?

The WP7 Dev Team just provided a link to a Metro design ebook. It’s barely a read. It’s really more of inspiration and sort of a neat marketing method to get devs to understand Metro. Each page has bold colors and is sparse on words with one page in all caps and the adjacent page … Read more
