Remember that Pro I reviewed a while back?  Remember how it was 2.3.3, and I said I betcha that 2.3.4 was around the corner? Well, today Sony proves I’m not a liar with an update to the Pro, Play, Arc and MiniPro. Funny – I was just supply teaching today and saw a student with…

If you are an owner for the new Galaxy Nexus, you would probably be happy to know there are some really promising roms revealing themselves recently.

So, Tom, really has us all turning into green jelly… [jealous that is] with his GNexus that’ll be his real soon.  Look for a posting/review REAL soon. Anybody remember that band green jellÿ? Reminded me that the other day I asked you all to tell me what it was you were looking for with Android’s…

So my phone has been having some issue lately.  Really has me debating this whole rooting/flashing ROM thing again. I see CM7.1 is up to 2.3.7.  My “captivate” is sitting oh-so-nicely on 2.3.3, and that last +.0.4 is tempting, but I am still gun-shy on trying it [bricked an old treo and a magic back…
