iPhone on Verizon?

Take a look at this: Is the iPhone Coming to Verizon?

Dwindling Battery Life

The battery life on my XV6800 is dwindling. Since it's a lithium ion battery, it has a finite life span and I think I'm approaching it quickly. I've been debating about whether I should get an aftermarket extended battery. At this point, I need something, so perhaps I'll try one out.

Use Your XV6800 is a GPS

If you have an old Verizon Wireless XV6800 (or Sprint Mogul) at home, don't throw it away because you can use it as a standalone GPS. You can turn off the phone service and still use it as a GPS device. Isn't that great to know? You just need to get your hands on some software like TomTom Navigator or Garmin Mobile for Pocket PC/Windows Mobile.

Windows Mobile 6.5 to be Released on May 11

I've been a Windows Mobile user since the days of the old Windows CE platform which evolved to Pocket PC and then to Windows Mobile. Soon, it will be called "Windows Phone." Won't that be confusing? I still want an iPhone, but I'm locked into Verizon Wireless, so I'll just stick with my XV6800 for now.

I can't believe that May is around the corner. Windows Mobile 6.5 will be released on May 11.

Can the XV6800 Handle Windows Mobile 6.5?

People are eager to know whether their Verizon Wireless XV6800 (Sprint Mogul, HTC Titan) can run Windows Mobile 6.5

What do you think? Several people at XDA Developers have been loading custom ROMs that have Windows Mobile 6.5

Are you willing to try?

Tethering Speeds on EV-DO

AT&T is advertising that they currently have the fastest 3G network in the United States. How does Verizon Wireless currently compare?

I'm still getting good speed while tethering with my XV6800.

SkyFire 0.9

Try SkyFire on your Verizon Wireless XV6800. Version 0.9 is now available as a free download. It's still not mobile Safari on an iPhone, but it's one of the better mobile browsers for Windows Mobile.

To get it, type: http://get.skyfire.com into your mobile browser and download the CAB file.

Windows Mobile 6.5 is Coming Soon

According to the rumors, Windows Mobile 6.5 is coming soon. It's really a shame, but I don't think the XV6800 can handle this new operating system.
