Seesmic Launches New Free Twitter App for Android & BlackBerry
Digg this. Add to del.icio.us. Stumble this. Post to Facebook. Send to a friend. Nov 20, 2009 - 7:09 PM, by azstar

For all of you tweeters out there another new Twitter client is ready for Android and BlackBerry users. Desktop client Seesmic now has a mobile app. I'm giving it a try on my Motorola Droid and it's a bit slower to load than Swift(my favorite twitter app for Android) and is having some issues with giving me someone else's avatar in my timeline but otherwise it is loaded with options and has a nice UI. I will continue to use it for a couple days and test it out.

From their Android description: "Seesmic now offers the Twitter client you've been waiting for! A powerful feature-rich... [Read More]

Digg this. Add to del.icio.us. Stumble this. Post to Facebook. Send to a friend. Nov 20, 2009 - 11:55 AM, by azstar

I know quite a few users who love the small candy bar size and style of the Pearl and with the last update being the Pearl Flip 8220 fans of the original have been wondering if an update to their favorite style BlackBerry would ever arrive. Fear not suretype lovers, the BlackBerry 9100 Pearl possibly codenamed Striker is on the way! There's not much info yet like specs, but as seen in the pics, like the newer devices the trackball has been replaced with the trackpad and it has been updated in style to match the latest devices. Anyone excited about this?

In a move that is sure to make playboys everywhere nervous, Internet company PeopleFinders has created two iPhone applications that let users perform background checks on their potential dates.

The apps, known as "Stud or Dud?" and "Are They Really Single?", utilize data culled from countless public records to give users a more complete picture of whom they're going out with. PeopleFinders President and COO Bryce Lane says his company collects data from "thousands of sources" across the

AT&T Loses Round 1 in Court Battle with Verizon
Digg this. Add to del.icio.us. Stumble this. Post to Facebook. Send to a friend. Nov 19, 2009 - 1:06 AM, by azstar
In the battle of the wireless giants AT&T has lost one round of the fight today when a judge decided that the "There's a map for that" ads may be "sneaky" but are not misleading and denied AT&T's request to have the ads pulled. "Judge Batten said people might “misunderstand” the commercials, “but that doesn’t mean they’re misleading." It's certainly not the end though since they will have another chance in court on Dec. 16th. But in the mean time AT&T is retaliating with their own ads jabbing back at Verizon.

Rumored 'Google Phone' said to be coming in 2010 (Update)

Google is rumored to release its own custom-built Android phone in early 2010, allowing the company to control all of the facets of the software and hardware, much like with Apple and the iPhone. The part I like the most about this rumor is listed below. This could turn out to be a true full featured phone.

"There won’t be any negotiation or compromise over the phone’s design of features -- Google is dictating every last piece of it," Arrington said. "No ... [Read More]

Just a few weeks ago, Azstar brought this great app to the forefront for the Pinstack Community. The company gave away 20 copies and I was lucky enough to win one. Since then, I've loved this app and it's features. Mainly because I no longer have to check my device everytime I receive an email or SMS while I'm sitting at the computer. Here's a quick run-down of the features, including the newest.
