By now we know that the Verizon Droid not only looks good, but has plenty of technical promise too, and BGR have followed up their preliminary hands-on with a more comprehensive preview of the Android smartphone.  The Motorola Droid gets praised for its “sharp, vibrant, bright and really, really responsive” 3.7-inch capacitive touchscreen, while the keyboard may lack travel and feature closely-packed buttons but it’s good enough for “efficient” typing and is better than the T-Mobile G1.  Meanwhile the charging dock/multimedia station (which you can see in a video demo after the cut) automatically turns the Droid into a weather station.

T-Mobile’s Project Dark still has the rumor-gibbons babbling, and so we’re pleased to see what look like hard numbers to go along with the speculation.  According to TmoNews, you’re looking at leaked price plan details for T-Mobile USA’s upcoming tariff refresh, which detail a number of new contract and non-contract plans all of which have free nationwide T-Mobile-to-T-Mobile calling and free nights/weekends.

We’d quite like to meet the person at Sony Ericsson responsible for product codenames; after the somewhat unusual “Rachel” moniker for their XPERIA X3/X10 Android smartphone, now we have word of the Sony Ericsson Susan.  A more traditional candybar shape, Susan has followers of SE all a flutter because the status-bar looks a little like that of an Android device.

It seems we could have been calling Sony Ericsson’s first Android smartphone by the wrong name, at least according to a Tweakers forum member.  That individual, who claims to have not only talked to Sony Ericsson staff about the device but to have played with a prototype, says that rather than the XPERIA X3, the handset will most likely be branded as the Sony Ericsson XPERIA X10.  They’ve also let slip some details about a possible launch window.

Entirely unsurprisingly, the Apple Store has been taken down for the usual hurried "updates".  While the same thing happened late last month with no noticeable changes, today we're expecting quite a few modifications what with the very recent speculation that Apple are planning to push out a new MacBook, iMac, Mac mini and even peripheral range. Update: The store is back, and here's what you can buy.

kodak logo 540x272Kodak’s recent performance may not quite live up to the company’s photographic heritage, but when they say they’ve got an “entirely new type of camera” lined up for CES we’ll still take notice.  According to electricpig, a “highly placed source” at the company has revealed that Kodak are planning to bring both a new camera and a new camcorder to the electronics show in January, although details beyond that are more than scarce.

Apple may be riding high on another successful financial quarter, but we still wouldn’t put it past them to announce a few new products this week in order to stick a spoke in the wheels of Windows 7’s launch.  According to man-in-the-know John Gruber, it’s not a product trickle but a flood we should be expecting, with both new notebooks and desktops together with multitouch-compatible peripherals on the cards.

Update: The new range is now live – all the details here

Further details about the expected Barnes and Noble ebook reader launch have emerged, this time courtesy of the Wall Street Journal who are claiming to have prematurely spotted a full-page ad for the device.  They suggest that the dual-screen device will be priced at $259 and be called the Barnes and Noble Nook, which has to be one of the more ridiculous names for an ebook reader right now.

Mobile internet sharing looks to be one of the key sales messages for smartphones over the next few months; we’ve already heard HTC talking up their connection sharing app on the HD2, and now Verizon are tipped to be promoting MiFi action on the upcoming BlackBerry Storm2.  According to a leaked marketing page from the CDMA carrier, the “Totally New Storm2″ would launch on October 21st with “MiFi capability”; however that date was later retracted.
