While this is no complete port (like Android was to iPhone), it is still apparently newsworthy. iSpazio picked this video up which shows a near-perfect iOS clone running on the HTC T-Mobile myTouch 3G (horrible name, btw).
Folks at XDA-Developers have managed to hack PlayStation 3 with Google Android phones. With this hack or let’s just refer it to as jailbreak, you’ll be able to create backups of your PS3 games. You’ll have to use Google to find other uses.
When we talk about touchscreen-only Tablets, the first device that pops up in mind is the iPad. It is an awesome device in many ways, provided that you find some good use for it. When iPad was launched earlier this year, it was pushed as a device to innovate the way we use our computers, just like what iPhone did with smartphones back in 2007.
Being the only Google-branded handset in the Android world, Nexus One will always get the first love when it comes to the latest Android bits.

Unless you have been living under a rock or something, you already know what Antennagate is all about. The problem came into light when iPhone 4 was launched in June of this year. It occurs when you hold your phone in a way which covers the antenna, resulting in signal loss, poor reception and dropped calls. And now the latest Android sensation of Verizon, the newly released Motorola Droid 2 falls victim to it.
One feature which Android users have been asking for long was the ability to sync bookmarks with Google Chrome web browser. But now thanks to a nifty app called “Chrome to Phone” by Google, you can now send URLs / links from your computer running Google Chrome browser right to your Android device running Android 2.2 Froyo.
One thing that Android platform seriously lacks in comparison to iPhone (iOS) is quality gaming. Even though it fully supports good graphics and game play, but the developers for whatever reasons so far have not been able to deliver the quality of games that Apple’s iOS devices deliver. But now it seems like all that is going to change. Engadget has the latest scoop from one of their reliable sources who claims that Sony Ericsson is working on a gaming phone which will look a hell a lot like the PSP and that it will be powered by Android 3.0 Gingerbread, bringing PlayStation titles to the platform.
