Rogers was the first carrier in North America to offer the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 so it’s only likely that they’d also get first crack at the X10 Mini and X10 Mini Pro. Somehow, the carrier accidentally spilled some beans showing they will be doing exactly that. According to RGB Filter, the Rogers on Demand [...]

Opinion on the Motorola FLIPOUT with MOTOBLUR, announced last week, varied from “it’s distinctive” to “it’s just plain ugly”, but after a hands-on fondle this morning we’re beginning to change our mind.
