The other night at Pepcom’s Digital Experience, Techcitement got a real treat – some hands-on time with the upcoming LG Thrill 4G. Embracing the current 3D trend, the Thrill has dual 5MP cameras for 3D shots and glasses free 3D that Does Not Suck. The 720p HD playback we saw was gorgeous, and I just […]
A Facebook friend posted this on his wall yesterday, and at first I didn’t believe it. Apple is refusing to fix smokers’ computers. Seriously. Something I just learned: Apple will refuse to repair your Mac if anybody in your home or office has smoked in its presence. When asked for details about his house guest’s […]

They may have chosen a day when their news cycle would be stolen in a matter of hours, but Sprint has announced that two new HTC devices will be launching on their network on June 24th. The first device is the much-anticipated successor to the popular HTC EVO 4G. On the surface, the new EVO […]
