The worst Android Twitter apps #2: Twitli
Oh dear. Poor little Twitli is joining the Android Twitter app shit-list along with the terrible Yap Yap, thanks to, well… looking terrible, featuring very low quality timeline icons, having a schizophrenic menu design that lurches from custom to basic Android default, and being so very, very… functional… Read the rest

UK retailer Play.com stocking the Motorola Milestone and Acer Liquid A1 from December 21
That’s the good news. The bad news is you won’t get them in time for Christmas.
The other bad news is… the unlocked, SIM-free UK version of the Android 2.0-using DROID that we call Milestone will cost £449 from Play when it arrives on Monday… Read the rest

WordPress app wpToGo updated, a bit

Sony Ericsson Xperia Ray review
A slim and glamorous phone from Sony Ericsson, with the sharpest display around. It’s no powerhouse and the screen’s not the biggest out there, but we don’t mind. Because it’s cute. -
LG Optimus 3D review
LG’s first glasses-free 3D phone is a heavy, fat monster, with a clever 3D effect that works rather well. As a smartphone, though, it’s heavy and underwhelming. -
Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo review
A very shiny thing from Sony Ericsson, with a 3.7″ screen and Android 2.3.3 inside. But is it exciting enough to win fans in today’s spec-obsessed market? Can man live on one core alone? -
