Below is a video from crackberry.com where they having a browser war between Blackberry Torch, iPhone 4, Samsung Captivate and Blackberry Bold. iPhone 4 comes out as a winner as expected, Samsung captivate doesn’t do that bad either considering its running Android. Blackberry’s well, they have revamped their browser with Torch but it still needs some improvement in the speed department. Good fight nonetheless, enjoy the video below :

It seems Motorola is all charged up and reviving their mobile department. They will be launching a new smartphone named as “droid” with a 5mpx camera and all other goodies. Also they have already started taking pot shots at iPhone :-D . Well, I am not against constructive criticism but to be honest till now there are negligible no. of phones who actually came near to iPhone stature.

So, lets see what this phone has to offer in real and doesn’t end up like others biting the dust. I would be waiting for this one’s release. In the mean time you can enjoy the video as part of droid promotion.

Although details are pretty sketchy at this point of time, but Wall Street Journal reports that Microsoft and Verizon are in talks to release a touchscreen-based multimedia phone which will extend the Windows Mobile OS with some additional software capabilities. And it will have Windows Marketplace integrated as well.

So can this be a “Zune Phone” finally coming to life after being just a rumor, well not sure as the WSJ report doesn’t mention the Zune device at all. Also the report mentions that the phone will be developed by 3rd party.

With Palm Pre coming releasing pretty soon and now this new mystery “Pink” phone might give the new gen iPhone a good fight after all :-) . We just have to wait and watch.
