T-Mobile and faster 3G goodness for its users

New phone (NEXUS ONE) and new speeds at T-Mobile as they announce an upgrade to their network. The T-Mobile network is now running at 7.2Mbps peek up from 3.6Mbps. AT&T is upgrading too but they are not there yet.

I ran a speed test on my Moto Cliq and see I got 2.22Mbps download where I only got .2Mbps before. It might not be in the upper digit but it does feel much faster.

Onstar + Chevy Volt + Smartphone = Cool Stuff


Onstar can be equipped on Chevrolet vehicles and it can help in sticky situations. Future Volt users will have on more assist in the form of an application for Android, iPhone and Blackberry platforms. This app will give them features like.. Charging Status, MPG display and Remote Starting capabilities. If you don't have a smart phone, you not going to be left out, there will be an mobile optimized site as well.

NEXUS ONE with a Keyboard...is this in our future

The is soo much talk about the NEXUS ONE. I for one have the Motorola CLIQ but the NEXUS ONE does look like something I could use, if it had a physical keyboard. Well, apparently it just might get one. Google Engineering VP talked of an enterprise version that could have a keyboard and longer battery life. .. and there could be more devices including a budget model.
