Unusually-shaped peripherals are always good to see, and this wireless combo trackpad and mini QWERTY thumbboard looks to be a nifty addition to an HTPC setup. Boasting a roughly 30ft range using the included 2.4GHz wireless USB dongle, you get both mousing control with a 2.8-inch trackpad and text-entry with a backlit keyboard. Video demo after the cut Unfortunately it doesn’t look as though...

We learned back in October that the Pantech Impact was coming to the AT&T network in time for the holiday season. What we didn’t hear back in October was exactly when the device would be offered. The Impact handset is now available on the AT&T Wireless network for $99.99 after a mail-in rebate. We already know some of the specifications and features of the device, but I will run them...

One of Qualcomm’s more low-key demonstrations from today is actually the one thing you can try most readily yourself.

I have a splitting headache. There was so much real news today, mostly Android -y, we happily skipped this junk: GM's Wi-Fi, Apple Store POS, Virgin/Helio, Xbox Sky and a Blu-ray player only dumb people will buy. Dun dun DUN. GM's offering in-car internet for $500 and +$29 a month. Great! This is a stupid thing to get—think about devices like the MiFi , and ask yourself who would buy this. Plus,...

I can remember back before the iPhone was the answer to all of our mobile phone needs. I really wanted a Helio but in my local area there were no Helio offerings available. The company was later bought by Virgin Mobile, which appears ready to send the Heli...

Filed under: Handsets , Pantech , MVNOs Back in our day, the kiddies all ran around with Helios , VK Mobile looked like it could be the next Pantech , and " Kickflip " was a phone, not a skateboarding move. Okay, fine -- we knew like one or two people that used Helio, VK Mobile never even made a dent in the US market, and skateboarding had a lock on kickflips long before the wireless industry...

It was widely thought the day would come at some point, but it looks as if Virgin Mobile is shuttering the Helio brand name. Not only is the Pantech Ocean 2 no longer available on the website (oddly enough, it leaves the ancient Ocean as the only QWERTY device available), but the "Helio" moniker is gone from the devices, being replaced by the actual brand names. According to the screenshots...

As any member of the Greg Kumparak Fan Club (Hey! It exists. They have T-shirts. And buttons.) should know, I was a bit of a Helio geek prior to jumping on board with the Crunch family. My interest weened pretty quickly once Helio got snatched up by Virgin Mobile, as it seemed like their efforts [...]
