Official T-Mobile G2 Shots Leaked, Costs $199 with Contract

Potentially the best slider Android phone ever, the G2 has finally been leaked by T-Mobile itself through these 3 PR images. It seems that unlike the myTouch 3G Slide, T-Mobile will only offer this device in the shown silver color, which if you ask me, doesn’t look too bad. Actually, I think it differentiates between the mid-range texting smartphone and the high-end top of the line smartphone. The shots also suggest that the interface isn’t too skinned (probably not HTC Sense?) and features Android 2.2 (Froyo). 3.7” OLED display and 5 megapixel camera are still in place but the rumored 1 Ghz Snapdragon has since been revised to a 800 Mhz processor. Is the lower camera resolution something that all high end Android sliders share? That aside, it certainly looks pretty slim and the keyboard definitely looks seriously tactile. Now if only we had a time machine to get us to September 15th earlier….

Don't forget to grab the new Twitter app for your iPad

This is by far one of the best Twitter apps every created. It’s clean, simplistic and impossibly packed full of features. It’s still free, and it has every features (and more) as the other big name apps like Tweetdeck and Twitteriffic. We still suspect that this is going to ruin these other apps, but in the end, it’s better for us… right?

The future of Digg is looking good... I think

“Keval was not budging (he kept the cat snuggly in the bag, sadly) in general, but he did outline a forthcoming publisher analytics system that will bring more data to publisher account mangers. It will include average posts per day submitted, a method to track follows and unfollows on Digg, how many click-throughs the account’s submitted stories have received.” — The Next Web

Motorola Milestone 2 Arrives with Android 2.2 and MotoBlur

It appears the the folks at Motorola have recently been having some sort of leaking disorder with its slider Android devices. First the DROID 2 was thrown about everywhere before its official launch. And now it’s international brother has been leaked and somewhat confirmed through Motorola’s Youtube channel. Check out this promo video if you’re interested in the DROID 2 but reside somewhere other than the US!

Well, and it seems that just one day after the early leak, the phone is official! Running MotoBlur on top of Android 2.2, it certainly doesn’t feel like a high end smartphone. But then HD video recording is a high-end feature along with a 1GHz OMAP, 512 MB of RAM, and a 5 megapixel cam. 

Samsung's Galaxy Tab Officially Announced

The latest contender to Apple’s IPad was announced today, the Samsung Galaxy Tab. We finally have full specs, courtesy of Engdaget but really, we don’t know much else about the product. But some information is glaringly missing. Like for instance, which carrier is this going to be on? Or my favorite, about how much is this going to cost me so I can see how much top ramen I will be eating to pay for it?

Apple TV - HD TV show rentals cost the same as SD rentals?

Yesterday, Apple announced the new Apple TV and they seemed to be really pushing 3 major things — price, form factor and TV show rentals. They announced (amazing) 99 cent TV show rentals and the truly compelling part is they are in HD. Here is the weird part — on the Apple TV tech specs page, Apple lists the prices for content at the very bottom. HD TV show rentals are indeed 99 cents, but SD TV show rentals are also 99 cents.
