Android 2.1 OS upgrade for HTC Magic, Only At Rogers

HTC Magic Android 2.1 OS upgrade for HTC Magic, Only At Rogers

HTC Magic users with Rogers (one of telco in Canada) might be the luckiest HTC Magic user ever. That’s simply because their smartphone will receive official Android 2.1 OS upgrade, most likely by end of August. That’s confirmed by forumer Rogersmary in Androidforum which is one of the the Canadian’s company PR team. The whole process to get the upgrade seems quite complicated. Rogers has to go back and forth to HTC for the OS development and testing, and it still required approval from Google, the Android godfather. Nevertheless, it is still way better than the rest of regular HTC Magic users on the rest of the world who still running on Android 1.6.

Dell Streak To Hit Our Shores In November?

100821 dellmsiatwitterreply 450x148 Dell Streak To Hit Our Shores In November?

Well, this is actually the answer from @dellmsia, the official Twitter account for Dell Malaysia to question raised by folk at Soyacincau. That’s 3 more months to go. Apparently the earlier message tweeted by @dellmsia is only half true. The tweet stating that “Dell Streak has finally hit Malaysia” is appears to be demo unit delivered to TechCentral, not the availability of Dell Streak in stores. That’s just marketing gimmick. I wonder now if this tweet is true or otherwise.
