Remember when I asked why aren’t there more fully-white Android phones released in the U.S.? AT&T and Samsung must have read it because they are releasing an all white version of the Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket.

Samsung just sent us word that the snow-white Galaxy S II Skyrocket will go on sale this Sunday, December 4. The price will be the same as  [Read More...]

There is no doubt about it. The Asus Transformer Prime is the hottest tablet this holiday season to offer the full Android experience. Pre-orders for the device on Amazon sold out in one day and the different models dominated the best selling tablets list. An official release date has yet to be announced, but several retailers are still taking pre-orders including B&H, Best Buy, GameStop, Newegg, and Tiger Direct.

I’ll believe it when I see it. Steve Kovach of Business Insider is reporting tonight that Samsung has confirmed to him that the Galaxy Nexus will launch on Verizon ”in December.” I find it a little odd that Samsung would confirm the release window when Verizon is the one launching the phone, but the last rumored release date was December 8th.

Google has been saying that the Galaxy Nexus would be available in  [Read More...]

Twitter user TechFanatix has tweeted a screenshot of what appears to be a Verizon internal email which suggests that the hotly anticipated Samsung Galaxy Nexus will be finally launching on December 8th.
