The big Android news tonight is not of any one piece of hardware coming to light, but instead a glimpse at the software the G2 will be running. The big drama behind the Froyo build for the HTC G2 is that so far, Sense UI isn’t mentioned anywhere in the ROM’s internal files structure. As you all may know, HTC hasn’t let an Android device slip from their grasp without their custom skin wrapped nicely around Android’s more delicate parts in quite a...

We all knew it was coming at some point, but maybe not as soon as was just stated. T-Mobile USA is releasing their first HSPA+ device “by the end of summer”. Previous reports had the release date sometime in September. But no matter how you slice it, “summer” ends mid August.
