Dell Streak Strikes Out : Posted by Rida Kamran on 6:12 AM

If you are a customer in the United States, Streak 7 is here. As of today, we’re selling it to customers in the United States via Dell.com and many T-Mobile stores across the country. If you’ve been interested in the Streak 7, I bet you’ve already seen reviews at sites like Crunchgear, CNET and Wired. Still, I think it’s worth spending a few minutes to give you some perspective after I’ve had a chance to use the device over the last several days.
The Streak 7 is built to take advantage of T-Mobile’s brand new 4G network. As of today, you can walk into many of their stores in the United States, try it out, and walk out with one. New or existing T-Mobile customers can purchase the new Streak 7 for $199 after a $50 mail-in rebate. Without a contract, the price for customers is $449. If you pay the $449 price, you can opt for the Pay-as-you-Go options that start at $25 a month. Customers on Dell.com can buy the Streak 7 for $199 with a 2-year T-Mobile contract or the same $449 price if you’d rather the Pay-as-you-Go route.

Motorola Citrus: Posted by Rida Kamran on 12:14 PM

Android phones are like reality TV shows—they're everywhere, only far less annoying and actually useful. So, it's inevitable that Android phones would make their way into the entry/mid-level phones circuit, and the Motorola Citrus is one of the troopers bringing a taste of the most popular platform to the users on a tight budget. However, the Motorola Citrus is not alone. For $30 more, there's the LG Vortex. One thing the Vortex and the Citrus have in common is that fact that they're not very fast, especially when compared to the high dollar giants like the Droids. But, if you're looking to bust into Android Land on the cheap, the Motorola Citrus for Verizon Wireless could be the ticket.

HTC HD7 Review: Posted by Rida Kamran on 8:47 AM

The good: The HTC HD7 features a large 4.3-inch display and has a solid build quality and integrated kickstand. The Windows Phone 7 device offers full wireless options, a 5-megapixel camera with HD video capture, and 16GB of internal memory.
The bad: The HD7 is on the bigger side and lacks expandable memory. Speaker is weak. Touch screen isn't quite as sharp or vibrant as the latest devices.
The bottom line: The hardware could use a bit of updating, but the HTC HD7 for T-Mobile combines the power of Windows Phone 7 with a large touch screen and delivers satisfying performance.

BlackBerry Playbook Price Announced: Posted by Rida Kamran on 11:25 AM

The BlackBerry Playbook is another rival to the Apple iPad , which is due to launch in February.

In an interview with a Korean site RIM CEO Jim Balsielle said the device will be "very competitively priced". The statement has been interpreted that the device will cost around $500 (£312) in the US. Thats a very good price when you consider the iPad 16GB WiFi only iPad costs the same amount.

The BlackBerry PlayBook does have a smaller screen than the iPad as it has a 7 inch touch-screen display, while the iPad has a 9.7 inch offering. Another downside of the BlackBerry Playbook on launch is it's not yet available in a version that supports 3G.

However, the Playbook makes up for it in other ways. It features a fantastic 1 Ghz dual-core processor that should provide much more power than the iPad's processor. It also features a front facing 3 mega-pixel camera and a rear-facing 5 mega-pixel which can record HD video. The Apple iPad meanwhile doesn't even have a camera.
