, Jun 15th 2010 Discuss [0]

Apple's webstores may be up and down as the company battles legions of would-be iPhone 4 preorder customers, but over at carrier Vodafone it's all about unveiling their official pricing and packages for their offering.  Unlike rival O2, who have cut down entry-level inclusive data to just 500MB, Vodafone are including 1GB across the board; tariffs kick off at £25 ($37) per month, with the iPhone 4 itself costing £280.

Dell Streak Review

, Jun 12th 2010 Discuss [14]

Since the first rumors many months back, to Michael Dell flashing his prototype in the street and then a few quiet appearances at trade shows, the Dell Streak has taken its time coming to market. Running Android on a broad, eye-catching 5-inch display, there’s little like it on the market and it’s been an attention-grabber ever since. Yes, the Streak is a device that certainly prompts questions – among geeks and everyday users alike – but the one we set out to answer is simple: is it any good? Check out the full SlashGear review after the cut.

Orange UK next to scrap unlimited data; Vodafone to follow?

, Jun 11th 2010 Discuss [0]

UK carrier Orange is the next to follow O2 and AT&T, axing unlimited data packages from their contract range from July 2010.  The move follows Orange exec Guillaume van Gaver's comments back in March that "unlimited data packages are not ultimately sustainable. Fair usage policies will be applied, because everyone has to recognise the challenge of carrying video."  Meanwhile Vodafone are apparently expected to withdraw their own unlimited data offerings this coming summer.

O2 iPhone 4 tariffs revealed: data disappointment

, Jun 10th 2010 Discuss [9]

Even as we were writing up O2's newly reduced mobile data tariffs, we were hoping the new packages wouldn't apply to the upcoming iPhone 4.  Unfortunately, the UK carrier has just confirmed its iPhone 4 packages, and subscribers will indeed be limited to up to 1GB of data unless they want to take out data overage "bolt-ons"; most tariffs come with just 500MB, in fact.  Full pricing after the cut.

It's beginning to look like the days of unlimited mobile internet really are ending; O2 have followed AT&T's example and are killing off their unlimited data tariffs.  Instead, from June 24th, there will be three different tiers of inclusive data - 500MB, 750MB or 1GB - together with optional "bolt-on" extras of 500MB for £5 ($7) or 1GB for £10 ($15).

O2 Dell Streak unboxing

, Jun 4th 2010 Discuss [5]

Dell have just sent over their Streak Android MID, fresh to the O2 network today, and we’ve been getting to grips with it the 5-inch Snapdragon-based slate.  The company are insistent that this is a tablet, not a smartphone, but of course it really sits somewhere in-between.  Either way, it’s fast, slick, and – as you quickly figure in the first few minutes of picking it up – great for web browsing.
