Huge Spec Leak: Wildfire 2, Desire 2, Desire HD2, and Galaxy S2

Aside from the fact that all of these phones have the number “2″ in them, something amazing has happened – specs for the HTC Wildfire 2, HTC Desire 2, HTC Desire HD2, and the Samsung Galaxy S2 have all been leaked. Pocketnow is our benefactor today. Let’s dive in.The Samsung Galaxy S2 will not have Samsung’s dual-core Orion chipset as we once hoped it would, but it does have Qualcomm’s 1.2GHz dual-core Snapdragon. Samsung likely went this route due to their chipset not being ready in time, but we thought they’d be going with NVIDIA earlier on.It houses the same Adreno 205 GPU found in the Scorpion processor. As expected, it’ll have an 8 megapixel camera that can record HD video. It’ll have 16GB of internal storage and 512 MB of RAM...

RIM’s Upcoming BlackBerry PlayBook Tablet Rumored To Support Android Apps, Again

About 2 weeks ago, BGR broke the rumor of RIM’s upcoming tablet, the BlackBerry PlayBook, possibly being capable of running Android apps sometime after launch, which the latest rumors put at the end of March/beginning of April with a price sticker of $499.99.

BGR is usually very credible, so the rumor definitely had legs.Today, 2 weeks later, Bloomberg revealed that their own sources – in fact, 3 of them – have confirmed that RIM is indeed moving in the direction BGR predicted. Specifically, the company moved on from Dalvik and is now...

Android Market Introducing Buyer’s Currency

One of the (numerous) problems with the Android Market has been its billing system – up to now, buyers were charged in the seller’s currency. While most credit card companies were smart enough to convert the bill to the buyer’s coinage, others flat out cancelled the payment. No longer – Google just announced Buyer’s Currency, which gives developers the ability to set their apps’ prices in each of the currencies available in the Market.In other words, you can have your app sell for $5 in the US and £3.70 in the UK; previously, if the buyer was in the US and the app’s price was in euros, the buyer would be charged in euros, and converting the fee to dollars was left up to credit card companies.Buyer’s Currency is now available to US...
