LG Optimus One may be headed to Verizon as the Vortex

It was just a week ago that LG announced the Optimus One and the Optimus Chic, and it looks like the former might be headed to Verizon as the Vortex.

That's according to this image handed to the Droid Guy. The picture doesn't give much away, but the rumored specs are a 3.2-inch touchscreen and a 600 MHz processor (and the usual sundries you'd expect on any phone these days). So that'd make it mid-level phone, along the lines of the Optimus One.

So that's that. It's good to see at least one more player in the U.S. market, but we'd still much rather see one of its high-end phones, like the Optimus Chic, or the Optimus Z, which we reviewed previously.

But we'll take what we can get, we reckon, and just keep our fingers crossed that something untoward doesn't happen to what may be an otherwise decent mid-level Android phone. [The Droid Guy] Thanks, Paul.

HTC Lexikon Looks to Be Next Verizon Droid

It has been just over a month since we have first heard of the HTC Lexikon. It’s supposed specs were “pretty” impressive: MSM7630 Snapdragon processor, 512MB RAM, 4GB internal storage, 5-megapixel camera all inside this 3.8-inch display QWERTY slider. In standards of the next-gen phones we are seeing now, it’s nothing too ground breaking. However, it may just be coming to Verizon making it one of their best Android devices.


Another point of interest is that the ROM may have been leaked. The same website that provided us with the image above is also hosting the ROM for download. 911HTC has been a reliable source for rumors in the past so it looks like this may be the actual Lexikon ROM.

Chrome OS to replace Android on Samsung Galaxy Tab?

Samsung’s much hyped Galaxy Tab hasn’t even been released yet and people are already speculating on the future of the device. Many are reporting that the next update for the current Tab or the next model will be sporting Chrome OS instead of Android 2.2. It all depends on what Google has in store for Android 3.0 (Gingerbread) if it’s more tablet friendly then it would be the next update. However, if it is still not built with a tablet in mind, like Google has stated was the case for 2.2, then Samsung may consider Chrome OS.


What would Chrome OS mean for the Samsung Tab? First off, Users will be fronted with a very different experience. They will exchange a mobile phone like OS for one that feels more like an extension of a computer operating system. Chrome OS will also focus more on web based applications similar to Google Docs and stray away from downloadable apps.
In the end the preference will come to the end user. Right now the Galaxy Tab is capable of running Google’s upcoming Chrome OS. When it’s released it will be possible to replace the operating system with Chrome, but for the average user it may require professional help. Only time will tell to see the future of Chrome OS, Google 3.0 and the Android platform but we will be sure to let you know of any developments as they happen.

The announcement was made during an event in Paris called Google Atmosphere (an event dedicated to cloud computing):

Second, today we demonstrated new mobile editing capabilities for Google Docs on the Android platform and the iPad. In the next few weeks, co-workers around the world will soon be able to co-edit files simultaneously from an even wider array of devices.

On top of this announcement Google released a new verification system for business premium users of Google apps and also showed off some usage statistics. Apparently there are now 3 million businesses, and over 30 million users within businesses, schools, and organisations worldwide that depend on Google’s tools.

Adobe posts security update for Flash Player 10.1.92.10 for Android

Heads up!  Remember that security warning from Adobe last week?  Well, they just issued a security update today for Adobe Flash Player 10.1.92.10 which should fix that right up.  Yup, having the ability to play flash rocks, but adds another security risk Android users must watch out for.  I’d like to recall a famous quote by FDR (and the Spiderman movie), “With great power, comes great responsiblity.”  So be sure to keep your Adobe software up to date.  See the blog post from Adobe below:

Today, a Security Bulletin has been posted to address a critical security issue (CVE-2010-2884) in Adobe Flash Player. This Security Bulletin affects Adobe Flash Player 10.1.82.76 and earlier versions for Windows, Macintosh, Linux, and Solaris, and Adobe Flash Player 10.1.92.10 for Android.  Adobe recommends users apply the update for their product installation. This addresses the issue first mentioned in Security Advisory APSA10-03.

Both Rogers and Bell Will Carry the Samsung Galaxy Tab

Boom! Just like that, the Galaxy Tab is launching on both Rogers and Bell.  This is great news for Canadian readers.  It's nice to see that Samsung is giving Canadians a great opportunity to by the Tab.  I pretty much thought this would happen though as they are giving this tablet some major priority.
Obviously, still no word about pricing or release dates from either carrier as of yet, but hopefully we will be having something soon.  As soon as we have it, we will let you know!
Anyone up in Canada excited about this?
