One of our connects just blessed us with a couple shots of the HTC DROID Eris and graciously unboxed the retail packaging. We could bore you with meaningless details about how the phone is thinner and lighter than the Sprint HTC Hero, feels much better in the hand, and is generally the best Android device besides the Motorola DROID our connect has used, but we’ll stop there. Enjoy the photos!

There's no stopping the eternal tug-of-war between the powers that be and the hackers that will, and for the time being it looks like things are back in the hands of the hackers.

As of noon today giddy jailbreakers can take the next step and go full-on with blacksn0w, the unlock for the latest 05.11.07 baseband (with tethering enabled to boot). And if that weren't enough, it looks like blackra1n RC3 is alive as well, with Mac and Windows support. What are you waiting for? Hit the read link to get started, if that's your thing.

Verizon Wireless has made it official: the Motorola DROID will hit Big Red on November 6th for $199 on contract (after a $100 mail-in rebate).

Android 2.0 will be front and center, along with Visual Voicemail, a 3.7-inch display (854 x 480 resolution), 5 megapixel camera (with dual-LED flash), a bundled 16GB memory card and a beta version of Google Maps Navigation(!).

For those wondering, the DROID is the first phone to offer that, which transforms Google Maps into a turn-by-turn routing system that'll have your dedicated TomTom / Garmin trembling in fear.

Nokia has revealed that it is to close the doors on its N-Gage platform next year, in favour of offering all its gaming through its Ovi Store content portal.

Nokia's N-Gage launched as hardware back in 2003 with a "taco-shaped" gaming phone, which although now arguably a cult device, had design flaws which made it ripe for ridicule.

A few years later and Nokia rolled out N-Gage gaming abilities to its higher-end mobiles, with the more recent N81 angled as a gaming phone, making N-Gage into a mobile gaming platform available across a range of handsets.

Ok. There have been many steps to fixing this particular topic but I may have found a way.

It was really simple, I can now, RE-OPEN A GAME on my vboy and load saves, it was a blissful miracle.

ok, heres what "I" did, I opened vBoy for the 100th time, trying still to find a version that worked, and once again i couldn't reopen the same game, so.

I deleted everything on the menu.

1.Pokemon
2.vBoy demo (what came with it.)

and wow it worked.

if you plan to buy a n73 it is better you increase your budget and buy the newer and better n78 which supports n-gage 2.0 game platform.
n73 vs n78
s60vs3.0 os9.1/ s60vs3.0 os9.3 similliar to n95 8gb
arm9 processor 226mhz/ arm11 processor 306mhz etc.etc....
so it is better to buy n78 than the age old n73

Feb. 14 (Bloomberg) -- After only eight months on the market, the iPhone from Apple Inc. is prompting competitors including market leader Nokia Oyj to introduce mobile phones with competitive, and sometimes better, features.
At the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, Nokia, based in Espoo, Finland, unveiled the N96, a top-of-the-line model that comes with features the iPhone lacks, including faster third-generation mobile data connections, video recording, a slot for additional memory and the ability to watch live TV in parts of Europe and Asia.
