I go over what apps are used the most when I am using Windows Phone 7. Please let me know which apps you use if you have a WP7 device and be sure to leave a comment on them below.
The smartphone that promises to be your computer in your pocket, the Atrix 4G is now available at Amazon. For just $149 you get an NVIDIA Tegra 2 dual-core processor with each core running at 1GHz, a 4-inch display with a resolution of 960×540 and the ability to multi-task to your hearts content. The Atrix 4G comes equipped with Android 2.2 Froyo, includes a 5 megapixel camera with 720p video recording capability, wireless-N for Wifi, bluetooth, GPS, HDMI audio/video output, 16GB of internal storage with the ability to expand via microSD to 32GB. What the subsidized 2-year contract price of $149 does not get you is the extra laptop dock, or multimedia dock. Motorola claims a decent 9 hours of talk time and supports AT&T’s dual-band 850/1900 MHz 4G network (UMTS/HSDPA/HSPA+).
Along with the cost of the phone you will need to pick up a data plan if you don’t have one already, but you knew that already. Be sure to check around for bundles that include the laptop dock or multimedia dock along with the Atrix.
We continue the iPhone 4 Tips series and this time bring to you a collection of the Top 10 Must-Have apps for any iPhone user. Check out the video for all the details and app goodness.
The Kindle is coming to iPad or at least wehope it is. Amazon showed what the app looks like and how it works, but the app has yet to be approved. If it does get the Apple stamp of approval, the Kindle app will work much like you would expect. You can select a book from your library by tapping it. You can then turn the page using the iPad’s native book turning interface. You can buy books from the Amazon store and even use whispersync to sync the app store and page placement between devices.
If the app is approved, we can only hope the competition it brings to the iPad Book Store and others benefits the user instead of taking from us.
Don’t want to spring for the iPad? Barnes & Nobles Nook E-Book reader is now shipping and the timing could not be more perfect. Amazon is having numerous issues with publishers not happy with the inability to set their own prices and the iPad is not due out for at least 50 more days or so. The E-Book reader is is now available for $259 with free shipping from their website. You should be able to pick one up in a day or two at your local B&N store as well. Barnes & Nobles also have an availability checker on their site now that can point you to your local store to demo and pick up your very own Nook.
