Monday, March 8th, 2010

The Pixi Plus which is available for Verizon customers features minor changes from the original Pixi. The biggest addition has to be the built-in Wi-Fi, something the original lacked and was heavily criticized for. At $80 the Pixi Plus is one of the more affordable smartphones out there, but it does lack the processing power of the Pre Plus which comes in at a reasonable price of $150.

New Version of Google Voice Appears for Apple’s iPhone
Wednesday, January 27th, 2010

Apple and Google must have "hugged it out" when we weren't looking because Google Voice has slipped onto the iPhone. Apparently, Google has remedied the situation by adding a dash of HTML5 into Voice's Web interface. It looks like Google and Apple got over their spat [not really] with or without the FCC. The new Google Voice mobile Web app is for iPhone OS 3.0 and higher and Palm Web OS devices.

Google says this new web technology that makes it possible to run faster, richer web-based applications right in the browser-although you still need a Google Voice account. Google posted a lovely and educational tutorial video that helps you add the app to your iPhone's Home screen.
