HTC doubles workforce; jump to Android taking full flight
It’s no question that HTC was one of the first to jump on the Android train with the T-Mobile G1; perhaps their proactiveness with the platform was a smart move. HTC was actually able to literally double their workforce, increasing by 47% and now totaling 9,353 employees. The success of the Android platform has had [...]
Stolen WinMobile 6.5 phone remotely wiped, sorry guys, no sketchy video in the future
While the news of a stolen HTC handset running WinMo 6.5 had our hopes up for a sketched out video, it seems that Microsoft let us down.

I know what your thinking; headphone jack?! John Gruber from Daring Fireball said that Apple has a patent regarding the iPhone’s headphone jack, but the question is what does [...]
Mozilla’s Mobile Fennec Browser demoed on video; looks awesome
While the news regarding Mozilla’s Fennec browser, the Firefox equivalent for mobile devices, has been fairly low-key, the HTC Touch Pro got some love today with the pre-alpha version being released for those handsets. Of course, this is still very alpha-alpha. Don’t expect any wonders yet. However, Fennec really has a great desktop-browser feel, that [...]
My Disappointment with the G2
With the leaked photos of the G2, initially, I’ll admit, I was excited. When I looked deeper into the matter and discovered that the G2 was actually a worse version of the G1, my heart ached a little.
First of all, I do not know WHAT HTC was thinking when they decided to remove the full [...]
