Samsung officially announce Galaxy Tab – We just want it in Oz![]() We love it, most of you love it, now that the Samsung Galaxy Tab is official, maybe we can actually get to meet the gadget we love. Running Android 2.2 on a 7" 1024x600 LCD display powered by a 1GHz CPU, what isn't there to love? Answer: Touch Wiz. With all that aside, the Galaxy Tab has officially been announced by Samsung at IFA in Berlin. Engadget went hands on with it, and they seemed pretty impressed overall, which only makes getting a review unit even more desirable. Full specs & preview video of the Galaxy Tab after the break (hit 'Read More').

Sony Ericsson AU planning to update X10 Series to Android 2.1 around September-October![]() If you currently own an Xperia X10, X10 Mini or X10 Mini Pro, you'll be happy to know that Sony Ericsson Australia has not forgotten you just yet. After reaching out to SE AU this afternoon, I got quite a positive reply..

I mean, come on, It's running Android 1.6 and the screen sensitivity is lackluster in comparison to the Desire or Galaxy S. But we applaud VHA for pushing the prices down and competition rife. We look forward to seeing Telstra & Optus lower their X10s soon also. The Vodafone deal can be found here: http://goo.gl/6ZL2 The Three deal can be found here: http://goo.gl/MnBx

The X10 Mini Pro, which is the smaller brother of the Xperia X10 which is already available through all carriers including Telstra, features a bite-size 2.55" capacitive display, 5MP camera w/ flash, full QWERTY keyboard & lots of cool software inclusions.

Just to clear up some confusion about the HTC Wildfire on Telstra..![]() It appears there is some confusing about pricing, availability & colouring of the HTC Wildfire that is currently available on Telstra. And fair enough, it has been pretty confusing for some, so in this post I hope to make things clearer so everyone can understand what's going on.
