Despite the sing-song post title, what’s said above is true: the Samsung Infuse 4G has hit up the FCC, and hopefully we’ll see the hot handset hit AT&T’s shelves very soon. The Infuse rounds out the carrier’s selection of HSPA+ devices, alongside the Inspire and Atrix. The handset sits somewhere in between the two existing HSPA+ handsets for AT&T in that it has better specs than the Inspire, but lacks a ... Read More

Well, well, would you look at which two Samsung phones got the FCC approval today. The first is the Samsung Galaxy S II i9100 - we all know that one. The SGH-i708, however, is a bit more mysterious. Judging by the image the FCC has posted, it looks like it'll be an edge-to-edge touchscreen device. Moreover, it'll have support for both WCDMA (interestingly, the AT&T 3G band - 850/1900Mhz) and CDMA/EvDo ... Read More

During the large flurry of Windows Phone 7 devices to come out in a big hit, there were a few that were spotted, but not officially announced. It seems that Asus wants a piece of the smartphone game as well, and is kicking it off with a Windows Phone 7 device. This Asus E600 went into the FCC with a 4 inch screen, 5.2 megapixel camera, and 850/1900MHz bands, making it ... Read More

It seems the aging BlackBerry Curve 8900 is finally getting a successor. The Curve 8980 features almost the same specs, but has picked up WirelessN connectivity and an optical trackpad instead of a regular trackball. The rest of the specs are quite familiar - 2.4-inch display, QWERTY keyboard, 3.2 megapixel snapper, GPS, Bluetooth and microSD card slot. Similar to its predecessor, the new Curve 8980 also lacks 3G connectivity. There is no ... Read More

Announced two weeks ago in India (and not yet available for purchase), the ultra-cheap Nokia X2 has received FCC’s approval to be used in the US. The phone is a GSM/EDGE-only device, and since it has quad-band connectivity, it can be used on any non-CDMA carrier in North America (AT&T, T-Mobile, Rogers, you name it). Needless to say, the FCC approval is by no means guaranteeing an X2 launch in North ... Read More

Officially announced less than one month ago, the Nokia 7230 has just been approved by the FCC, which blessed the phone’s use on US 3G bands (850 / 1900 MHz). This (theoretically) means that AT&T can launch the phone in the US, or, if you’re in Canada, Rogers or Fido may pick it up. The 7230 is a fancy-looking slider with decent features, including: 2.4 inch QVGA display, Bluetooth 2.1, 3.5mm headset ... Read More

Apparently there isn’t enough to do in Washington these days. 20 House of Representatives lawmakers have pressed the FCC to investigate how and why Google decides to block certain phone numbers with its Google Voice service. After numerous complaints were filed by said Representatives, mostly from rural areas, the FCC has sent a formal inquiry to Google and asked for a response by the 28th of this month. Google insists ... Read More

Ah – there we are. Just as the long rumored Motorola Sholes started to slip off the radar after failing to make an appearance at Motorola’s big (read: somewhat underwhelming) Android announcement earlier this month, it has moseyed its way right through the FCC. Now that the FCC has verified that the Sholes wont melt your brain or ruin all nearby radio equipment, when can we expect it to launch? Well, ... Read More

Federal Communications Commission (FCC) plans to unveil proposals Monday for ensuring Web traffic is not slowed or blocked based on its content, sources familiar with the contents of the speech said on Friday. FCC Chairman Julius Genachowski will announce plans to ask his fellow commissioners to adopt as a rule net neutrality and four existing principles on Internet access issued by the agency in 2005, one of the sources said. ... Read More
