How to Create More Internal Memory for Android Apps
Nov 6th

Dom2684 has put together a concise tutorial in the Android Forums on how to create more ‘internal memory’ for Android Apps on your G1, myTouch and other Android phones. Basically it involves creating an ext2 partition on a memory card that tricks Android into thinking it has more internal memory. Unlike a certain iPhone 3G, our Android devices give a wiser range of capabilities with hacks like this.
Of course if you take your memory card out this newly created ‘internal memory’ will disappear but it does open up a wide range of possibilities including the ability to just copy and paste data to a larger newer memory card when the time comes.

Rumors and News Thursday, 5 Nov. 2009
Nov 5th

Pictured above is the HTC Touch HD2 as it will appears on T-Mobile in the UK. It’s a shame we don’t get the exotic HTC phones over here States side. How hard would it be for T-Mobile to offer the phone even if they don’t have to advertise. I’m sure there’s several thousand that would buy it. Really TMo you don’t even have to support it, just offer it
. There is a tiny rumor going around that it MIGHT come to the US but we won’t know for sure until the 9th or 11th. Keep your fingers crossed.
Quick Specs: 4.3 in touchscreen, 4.9MP camera, FM Radio and all the other goodies that come standard now a days.
Also, several sites, like TMoNews, are reporting that more cities are experiencing the 7.2Mbps 3G speeds that we talked about awhile ago. Chicago and New York are among them. Other cities that should be experiencing them soon would be major cities with high population densities like Philadelphia, Boston, Seattle, Los Angeles, etc. Please let us know if you are experiencing sudden elative 3G data speeds.
