Google Nexus One

Posted on 31. Dec, 2009 by admin.

Google will introduce its Nexus One smartphone right after the New Year.

This HTC-built handset sounds like a very good Android phone, a solid effort as Google delves deeper into the consumer wireless market.

Unconfirmed rumors price the phone at $180 with a 2-year T-Mobile plan, or $530 unsubsidized. T-Mobile’s monthly contract will run about $80 a month for 500 minutes of talk and unlimited text and Web.

AT&T Suspends Online Sales of iPhone in New York City

Posted on 28. Dec, 2009 by admin.

Customers are reporting that the is no longer available for NYC zip codes

Although there have been reports of high dropped call rates for the Apple iPhone, a spokesperson for the company has contacted DailyTech on multiple occasions insisting that these reports are patently false and its partners at Apple are wrong.  Unfortunately, to date, our contact at the company has been unable to provide any sort of information on their metrics on dropped call rates in the NYC or New York state to help us verify these claims.  That said, it seems relatively obvious that the nation’s second largest carrier has struggled of late as it has cut its 2009 capital spending, limiting vital infrastructure upgrades.

Now Apple and partner AT&T may be resorting to a unique tactic to solve their NYC woes – at least to those that are looking to purchase the phones online.  Customers made the unpleasant discovery over the weekend.  Looking for a bit of iPhone Christmas cheer, they instead got a lump of coal in their stocking from AT&T.  Going online to purchase the phone, they discovered that when they typed their zip code –11231 — in the order form, they received an error message saying the iPhone was unavailable.  Similar searches for zip codes in midtown, Staten Island, the Bronx returned the same error.  Next turning to famous zip codes in other cities — like 90210 — they quickly verified the ban appears to be for New York City only.

Calling AT&T’s service line, The Consumerist chatted with a customer service rep named Daphne.  The rep reportedly commented, “I am happy to be helping you today . Yes, this is correct the phone is not offered to you because New York is not ready for the iPhone.  You don’t have enough towers to handle the phone.”

The reporter inquired, “Thank you for your help. So the phone is not available to people anywhere in the city?”

The AT&T service rep. responded, “Yes this is correct Laura.”

AT&T released a cryptic public relations-speak statement that seems to confirm that the phone has been pulled indefinitely.  Writes AT&T spokesperson Fletcher Cook company in the statement, “We periodically modify our promotions and distribution channels.”

Another possible explanation for the surprise blockade on iPhone sales to NYC is that it’s a crude attempt by AT&T to block credit card fraud.  Some early reports indicated that AT&T was adopting the measure to try to counteract high fraud rates in the city.

Whatever the reason for the online sales ban, we predict there will be a rush on iPhones at the Apple store in NYC.  After all, the ban doesn’t effect customers with existing iPhones — it just prevents customers in the Big Apple from buying new ones online.

Google reportedly planning to launch its own mobile

Posted on 28. Dec, 2009 by admin.

Google reportedly hopes to strengthen its presence in the world of mobile telephony with plans to introduce its own high-tech phone sometime in 2010, according to press reports.

Reports by the Wall Street Journal and other outlets cite sources close to Google stating that the company, known primarily for its online search functions, is expected to release a phone dubbed Nexus One that runs Google’s Android operating system.

However, the company hopes to sell the phone directly to consumers, skipping mobile service providers, which often package their services with hardware from other companies. That means customers will either have to use their existing mobile phone contract with the Nexus or arrange for a new one.

The new phones will reportedly be manufactured by Taiwanese phone maker HTC. HTC already produces several phones that use Android.

With Google in the lead, the two companies developed Android, which relies primarily on Google’s online services for mobile internet functions. However, until now, Google has always relied on other companies, like HTC, Samsung or Motorola, to provide network support and hardware.

Google recently reported in a blog entry that it was letting some of its employees test a new mobile device, but provided no further details. The company is seen by many to be one of the up-and-coming players in the mobile phone market. Google believes it can leverage its strong position in online advertising to similar strengths within the mobile market.
