hug Case Mate Hug wireless charging system now available

Case-mate has released its long awaited Hug wireless charging system. We were able to see it in action at CES and we were pretty impressed with it. The case “hugs” your iPhone to protect it from damage, but that is only half of it. There is also a wireless charging pad that charges your iPhone by just placing it on the pad. The Hug is the most affordable wireless charging pad on the market at $99.99. This price includes both the pad and the case, no need to spend more money on other accessories.

Is this the BlackBerry Storm3 or Slider?

bbslider2 Is this the BlackBerry Storm3 or Slider?

Pictures have leaked out of what seems to be a BlackBerry slider phone. We are hearing rumors that this may be the Storm3 or a whole new device. The keyboard seems to be the same as the BlackBerry 9700 and the screen looks to be a touch screen similar to the Storm. One thing is notice is that there is a trackpad on the device, which is different than the Storm2. We don’t have much details on the phone yet, but we will report it as we get it! Check out another shot after the jump.

webos1.4 Sprint confirms webOS 1.4 update for tomorrow; then quickly pulls the post

Today with what seems to be a mistake, Sprint confirmed the February 26 release of webOS 1.4 for the Palm Pre and Pixi. Quickly after being posted by an admin on the Sprint forum, the post was taken down. The update will be available via an over-the-air update at some point tomorrow. With some minor bug fixes and some major feature additions, webOS is going to have some real improvements. Check out our post from the CES Palm keynote that explains the major changes.
