Assuming we can believe this latest invitation, then it looks like the BlackBerry Bold 2 will have an official unveiling on T-Mobile on November 5. According to the recently leaked “Witness the unveiling…” invitation, T-Mobile will be holding the “T-Mobile Go Bolder Event” in New York on November 5. Additionally, there is also a similar but earlier event rumored to be taking place in LA on November 3. This of course falls in nicely with a rumored launch date of November 11.

CTIA seems to have been good for BlackBerry news, or more specifically BlackBerry Bold news. It looks like Bold fans will soon have a few more options when it comes to picking the model, color, or carrier of your choice. To begin with, the Bold which was previously rumored in white has now seen a more »

With all the new phones announced, revamped OS displays and carriers getting nutty, let’s look at where Palm stands today. This past week, two developments are changing how the world sees webOS and just how soon we’ll see its second device. Things are starting to move quickly for the little engine that could. Palm announced more »

For the past couple of days, I’ve rounded up what looked trendsetting, likely to actually make it into stores or just something I’ve fancied. This year’s CTIA seemed a bit odd to me; maybe it is the economy keeping a lid on things or maybe it is just that we are in limbo waiting to see how the first real soldier (Pre) goes up against the Apple war machine (iPhone). Here are the best of show awards, sponsored by Gadgetell and Downy Fabric Softner.

Disclaimer: The fine folks at Downy had nothing to do with this but it is laundry day, so if they need some geeks to check their stuff, send a tub this way.

Day two of CTIA in Las Vegas, Nevada and as is fitting the Palm Pre is leading the buzz with its announcement yesterday that it will support Palm OS and a new round of showing off of 3rd party apps. If you cut through that buzz, there are some unsung heroes that will be bumping into in your local coffee shop and on the planes, trains and if you carpool, automobiles. The Samsung Magnet represents the branch of the phone world that focuses on texting at Edge (2G) speeds. This phone though not officially priced yet, looks fantastic and is sure to be pretty affordable, I’d guess somewhere around the $49 mark with contract. The full QWERTY keypad looks nice and the phone itself will intro in orange. What is not to love?

NVIDIA has recently been taking great strides to diversify beyond just the graphics cards it’s known for. NVIDIA has been getting in a bit of trouble with Intel for all its expansion, but it seems willing to fight and lawsuits Intel will push out. Meanwhile NVIDIA is showing off its computer-on-a-chip system at CTIA.

The system, dubbed Tegra is designed to be used in Mobile Internet Devices, netbooks, or any other small devices (smartphones maybe?). NVIDIA is claiming the Tegra system will be able to handle 1080p video output over HDMI, using just a half watt of power. While not outputting HD video, the Tegra system uses so little power on standby that the device using Tegra will likely be able to run for days on standby.

Welcome to Gadgetell’s round up of the hottest action coming from Las Vegas, Nevada’s CTIA show. Opening day has been sprinkled some interesting developments, both at the show and those looking to preempt it a bit. Here is what is happening today: Blackberry (finally) launched its App store. App World, brings together a bunch of apps users probably didn’t know existed and puts them in one place. Bloggers have been arguing all day on whether or not this service is of any worth. The store requires a PayPal account for now, trackball or touch screen and 4.2 OS. Easy enough, right?

Today at CTIA in Las Vegas, Jabra is announcing two new products: the Halo Bluetooth stereo headset and the SP200 speaker phone. The headset is due out in May ’09 and the speaker phone this month.

The Halo headset features Jabra’s Noise Blackout technology and claims to work with any Bluetooth phone or mp3 player. According to Jabra, if connected to a mobile phone and listening to music, the headset music will fade out so you can take the call; no word if it has an integrated microphone to actually take the call. On the whole, it looks very sleek.

With iPhone 3.0 software being opened up to Bluetooth stereo accessories, Jabra’s Halo could be a big winner for all of us that hate cords. Of course, Jabra built in wire compatibility if your devices doesn’t have Bluetooth, which is pretty clever. At $129 MSRP, I could see this getting on many peoples short list.

The official announcement comes less than a full day since we saw the first official image of the Instinct S30 leak yesterday morning. Sprint has released an official press release confirming the release, and Samsung has already begun to show it off on the floor at CTIA. The Instinct S30, which was also known as more »
