When Motorola announced its new lineup of RAZR devices, everyone was happy to hear they would also be releasing “developer editions” for those who enjoy tinkering. It was safe to assume these would of course be unlocked devices, but with Motorola you never know. Only now, we do know. Motorola has gone ahead and added the Developer Editions of both the RAZR M and RAZR HD to the list of supported devices over at their Unlock My Device page.
While you’re giving out Snickers to your neighborhood zombies this Halloween, your local Gamestop will be selling Wikipads. What’s a Wikipad? Well, it’s an SEO leech (Wiki-iPad) that doubles as an Android gaming tablet. It’s hoping to attract the elite mobile gamers of the universe, who obviously prefer docking their tablet in a ginormous gaming pad/controller as opposed to using a comfortable Sony Dual Shock 3. Sarcasm aside, it does look somewhat interesting.
Amazon Wireless continues to bring us some of the best mobile deals available. They’ve just dropped the price of the Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III to $139.99 for new users and $149.99 for upgrades. Those are great prices for what amounts to the best available smartphone on the best available carrier.
As HTC gears up for its September 19 event, a few leaks of what is being called the HTC One X+ have been making the rounds. The device is purportedly running Jelly Bean (Android 4.1 w/Sense) and packing a Tegra 3+ AP37 1.6GHz quad-core / 1.7GHz single-core processor with 1GB of RAM and 32GB of ROM. It’s also keeping the same 4.7-inch 1280 x 720 screen that the One X has, while being powered by an underwhelming 1800mAh battery.
After a brief Xperia device exclusive, Call of Duty Black Ops Zombies is now available for most Android devices. The game itself is another Zombie shoot ’em up, which frankly, is getting a little old. Glu mobile has also decided to drive users bonkers by charging $6.99 for the game as well as including in-app purchases. This model is a far cry from what MadFingers Games is doing with their free Zombie hit Dead Trigger. By comparison, Dead Trigger (which dropped its price to free) has amassed almost 5 million downloads in two months while COD: Zombies with their $6.99 price tag has only managed a couple thousand downloads in the month that it has been available.
