HTC’s just issued the following official statement about the status of the “FroYo” Android 2.2 update for the HTC Desire. It’s starting to roll out across Europe this weekend. That man was not far out. The update will add 720p video capture, iTunes support through HTC Sync (!) and several other HTC Sense enhancements. Here’s [...]
The astonishingly nice and chunky little X10 Mini Pro is now available on direct O2 contracts, with the network offering it on bundles starting at £25 per month. Which isn’t great, to be honest – the Mini Pro can be had for £20 with ease on other networks if you do a bit of internet [...]
