It’s been quite a steady year for mobile OS usage this year. Worldwide, the top eight mobile OS platforms have relatively stayed in their same positions, in terms of usage, for most of the year. While Symbian OS has kept its throne successfully, the real action is between iOS and Android.

I live in Houston, Tx. I own many Apple products including the iPhone, iPad and Macbook Pro. I do love me some Microsoft too, though! I play Xbox and enjoy many games including the Modern Warfare, Halo, Assassin's Creed and Resident Evil series.

Looks like we can add Robin Williams to the list of people who are in love with Siri. Apple has included the assistant in every iPhone 4S. With reports of Siri being somewhat cruel (just kidding) to some, it’s nice to see the application in a lighthearted way.
The next chapter in cell phone technology is starting to sound eerily Orwellian. Here’s a recap of where we left off last April.
We’ve covered Kickstarter projects before such as the waterproof watch kit and today; we’re going to feature two of them. They are both keyboards, both aesthetic and both amazing ideas. We have no doubt that both products will receive the public funding they need for sale and distribution.
Have you ever wondered how strong your iPhone signal really is? Sure you can count the number of bars on your screen, but it’s not really specific.

For those of you using the Nexus S by Samsung, you’ll probably have access to the newest Android OS (Ice Cream Sandwich) way one or the other. Thanks to CyanogenMod 9, you’re able to get an early preview on your devices now. The newest alpha is by no means the last, but it runs smoother and faster than its predecessors.
For those of you that are tired of the Angry Birds phenomenon, we’d like to introduce you to a different kind of puzzle game. Physics will still be involved but now with fewer birds getting hurt or eggs getting stolen.
During Thanksgiving, stores such as Best Buy and Target had amazing deals lined up for the next day, Black Friday. The deals were so impressive that people lined up at all hours of the night, bringing tents and gadgets to keep them safe and busy for the wait.
If you like the idea of using your iPad as a fully functional phone, now you can. Thanks to a hack by iPhoneIslam, iPad users running the new iOS 5 update can install PhoneIt-iPad and start making calls right from their device.
When Siri was introduced just last month, it didn’t take long for developers to tinker with the software and find innovating ways of using the feature.
