Video And Hands On: Lenovo’s Lephone Android 2.0 Smartphone Devin Coldewey Thu, 07 Jan 2010 06:16:18 -0000 Lenovo gave us a chance to check out their latest smartphone today at CES 2010. It's Android-based with a complete OS facelift and hardly any of the original OS sticking out. I doubt they intended it to be, but it seems like a sort of interesting mix of webOS, iPhone, and Android features. I quite liked it.
From what I was told, the plan is to release the device in China first, then expand to the US. There were no carriers mentioned, and they were still working that out for China, so I wouldn't even speculate just yet. But I was impressed by the phone and the complete little ecosystem they had going. Oneforty Launching Its Premium Twitter App Store In Alpha Next Week MG Siegler Thu, 07 Jan 2010 05:15:54 -0000 When we first wrote about Oneforty, the "App Store for Twitter" in September, founder Laura Fitton told us that plan was for the service to be a full-fledged e-commerce platform eventually. That will start happening next week, we've learned.
Specifically, on January 12 (next Tuesday), Oneforty will announce its e-commerce alpha launch. With it, third-party Twitter applications and tools will be able to be sold through Oneforty for the first time. The service is in the process of emailing certain developers so that they can get their apps ready to go for this launch. If they choose to try out this new feature, developers are being told their apps will be featured on the service's main page. MG Talks The Nexus One On Attack Of The Show: “It’s A Nice Little Device” Jason Kincaid Thu, 07 Jan 2010 04:29:53 -0000 Yesterday, G4's Attack Of The Show had our own MG Siegler on to talk about the Nexus One, Googles' much-hyped new smartphone. MG's early verdict? It's "a nice little device", and "by far the sexiest Android device [he's] ever seen".
The 5-minute interview covers many of the phone's new features, including voice-to-text and 3D graphics capable of rendering a mobile version of Google Earth. They also discuss the revelation that Verizon will be supporting Google's new distribution model. And there's even a brief discussion on the Nexus One's ability to handle ASCII genitalia, if that's your thing.
