HTC Rider and Kingdom leaked , Doubleshot is MyTouch 4G Slide... ...

In a slew of HTC leaks today we see the smudgy pics of two unannounced phones and we hear about the real identity of the HTC Doubleshot, which recently made the headlines on its own. The Doubleshot will be called My Touch 4G Slide in tune with T-Mobile's HTC smartphone naming tradition.

A leaked test radio ROM for the HTC Doubleshot reveals that it will go under the name of MyTouch 4G Slide. We heard more details about the HTC Doubleshot earlier this week. Its XML profile revealed it should come with Android 2.3 Gingerbread, a WVGA screen, a side-sliding QWERTY keyboard and a 1.2GHz processor. Rumors suggested it’s coming to T-Mobile and the newly uncovered name ofMyTouch 4G Slide certainly suggests that as well.

  
HTC Kingdom • HTC Rider

In related news, tow new unannounced HTC handsets leaked today. We don't have many details besides what's already visible on this grainy low-res shots.

The red trim on the HTC Rider is certainly likeable and breaks the smartphone design mold. Rumors suggest that it's perhaps the European twin of the CDMA EVO 3D smartphone. It sure looks like it judging by the buttons below the display.

icloud.com domain name sold for $4.5 million, most likely to Apple... ...

When somebody drops 4.5 million dollars on a domain name, they surely mean some serious business. This is about how much a “mysterious” buyer just purchased icloud.com for, and rumors suggest the domain name's new owner is no other company than Apple itself.

Although the information has not been officially confirmed yet, things just seem to add up for now. It is speculated that Apple is already working hard on deploying its cloud-based media storage services, a goal which might have a higher priority than releasing iOS 5. Cupertino is also said to be in the talks with major record labels in order to smooth out the launch of its online “music locker.” Until recently, the icloud.com domain name was owned by Xcerion, a Swedish company which offers free and premium online storage services. The business, however, now operates under its new CloudMe branding.

Hopefully, more light will be shed on the matter on June 6, when Apple will be hosting its WWDC2011 event

BlackBerry Style 9670 Lands In India. Shows Some CDMA Love...Price Rs 24,999

All you BlackBerry fanbois on the CDMA side of the telecom divide rejoice! RIM has launched its much talked about (but not sought after) flip phone, the BlackBerry Style 9670 here in India. Designed to run on the CDMA platform, this device features a twin displays with a 360 x 400 resolution internal one and a 240 x 320 pixel external display.
A five megapixel autofocus camera with flash should take care of your imaging worries. It can also capture videos in VGA resolution which I must say is quite decent. Even though it is a flip phone, it features a full QWERTY keypad and even the BlackBerry standard optical trackpad. Connectivity options include Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and GPS.

The Style 9670 packs in 512 MB of internal memory and is augmented with an 8GB microSD card in the package. It runs BlackBerry OS 6.0, the latest version out there so you won’t feel left behind. This one will set you back by a cool Rs. 24,999 in India which we think is on the expensive side.

You can buy and use the phone on Reliance and Tata CDMA networks. Interested?

Apple officially announces the White iPhone 4, available tomorrow.

Apple officially announced the iPhone 4 last year and it’s almost one year old now. iPhone 4 is no doubt a great device and Apple has sold more than 18 million iPhone units so far. When it was announced, Apple also announced that there will be a White iPhone 4 too but then Apple postponed it till July, and then in October, Apple delayed it again till 2011. We heard that it will be out around summer 2011 and now it’s finally here.
Apple has officially announced the White iPhone 4, which looks more beautiful as compared to the Black iPhone 4. White iPhone 4 will hit AT&T and Verizon on April 28th, and also Apple authorized retailers in following countries:

Austria, Australia, Belgium, Canada, China, Czech Republic, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Luxembourg, Macau, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, South Korea, Spain, Switzerland, Sweden, Taiwan, Thailand, UK and USA

Well, it’s not hitting India tomorrow but Apple said that it will be available in many other countries soon and I am sure that India is also part of it. Just like the Black iPhone 4, 16GB and 32GB model will be available for $199 and $299 respectively on contract. I think that launching it right now doesn’t make any sense because people already got the Black iPhone 4 and also the next iPhone is coming out inSeptember as we heard. Well, if you are an iPhone fan then no one can stop you. So folks, pick up your collected pocket money and be ready tomorrow because I am sure that you are going to make Black iPhone 4 owners jealous with your new device. So anyone getting it tomorrow? And please share your opinion about the White iPhone 4.
