Moto Milestone firmware w/ multitouchy goodness stuffed in Droid.  ROM coming “within days”.

Android’s openness and easily tweakable nature is quickly making it a hackers dream. If you don’t like something, fix it. In regards to the Droid, the biggest shortcoming many have voiced is the lack of multitouch support within the browser specifically as the Droid does actually have multitouch. (Just look at Dolphin browser on the Droid — it’s built in, Google just didn’t take advantage of it.) Watching the video (below) is enough to make...

GSM Droid (Milestone) coming to US retailers.  Thick, hard as steel string attached…

The Droid is the current “must have” Android gadget. It’s sleek, powerful, and pretty darn good all around. US users however are limited to one carrier at the moment — Verizon.

Motorola Milestone (Sholes) comes to AT&T via Telus

Wetting your pants in excitement that AT&T is finally, finally getting on board with Android? Sorry to say that your little accident was for naught as AT&T is still stiff arming Google’s baby. Why? Well there’s many reasons why. (1) They don’t care about all of this “openness” crap. (2) Don’t want to harm exclusive agreements with Apple. Or (3), they’re just plain stupid. My vote’s for three, but this entire...

Latest Google Chrome 4.0 beta brings 30% speed increase, cross-computer bookmark syncing

I love Google Chrome. So much so that I even use the nightly builds on my MacBook Pro. On my Windows machine, it’s Google Chrome 4.0 beta all the way. It’s extremely fast and efficient. But it’s getting faster. The latest build, Chrome 4.0.223.16 brings a 30% speed boost compared to previous versions. Now again, Chrome is already fast so a 30% boost in this sense is roughly a couple tenths of a second. You’re not going to notice it like you...
