| Theres nothing wrong with the iPhone 4 that isnt wrong with its rivals. That claim, made by Steve Jobs at the special iPhone 4 press conference Apple held last Friday, drew a loud round of catcalls from the smartphone industry, which clearly didnt appreciate being tarred with the same brush that has smeared Cupertino these past few weeks. Nokia (NOK), Research in Motion (RIMM), HTC, Samsung and Motorola (MOT) have all issued statements taking issue with Apples claims and accusing it of unfairly trying to draw them into its death-grip drama. Here are their rebukes. -snip- Research in Motion: Apples... |

| Hey Freepers, I've decided to enter the world of smart phones. There are two options at this point: iPhone 4 or the HTC Incredible. I'd like your opinion if you've got some experience with either of these phones. I played with the Incredible today and was very impressed. I've known iPhone users who swear by their devices. Right now I'm leaning toward the HTC Incredible. #1- Verizon does have good coverage. I'm looking for a phone, after all. #2- Incredible seems to move very fast. #3- Incredible has voice to text. #4-Can't think of anything that the new iPhone will... |

| Jason posted his WWDC iPhone 4 checklist today and now that we know all about the iPhone 4 I would have to say this checklist shows exactly why I am planning to skip this version of the iPhone and stick with my new Sprint HTC EVO 4G device. The HTC EVO 4G has everything on Jasons list and more already up and running. It looks like the pace of Google has brought Android into the lead with Apple for innovation and excitement in the mobile space. Looking at Jasons list I would have to say that the most appealing features... |

| As youve undoubtedly heard by now, Apple has filed a lawsuit against device-maker HTC over 20 patents they control. As you might imagine, Google has something to say about it too. We are not a party to this lawsuit. However, we stand behind our Android operating system and the partners who have helped us to develop it, a Google spokesperson emailed us. A little odd that Google would proactively send us a statement for something theyre not technically involved in. But, as were all well aware, this suit is much more about Googles Android operating system than HTC. And it... |
