Java has been touted as probably the best platform to write programs on so they run on various different machines. Well, it seems that a company called Myriad has figured out how to convert Java MIDIlets (MIDIlets are basically Java programs that run on smartphones like Nokia) into Android apps with ability to use the softkeys and touchscreen on your Android.

Here’s some more great HTC Evo Hands-on videos that are being uploaded onto YouTube as I blogeth:
From Slashgear:
(Peter Chou HTC CEO and Dan Hesse Sprint CEO present the first 4G WiMax device for the U.S.!)
(UPDATE: Also see HTC Evo Reviews here) Well, the Supersonic 4G WiMax phone from Sprint is finally here! It’s actually called the HTC Evo 4G.
The new HTC Evo 4G has a Snapdragon QSD8650 1Ghz processor(CDMA version of QS8250 on Nexus One), 1GB of built-in memory, 512MB of RAM, a whopping 8 mega-pixel camera/camcorder with flash and an additional front-facing 1.3 megapixel camera.
Yey folks, I just overclocked my Nexus One to 1.113Ghz from its stock 1Ghz, making it the fastest CPU for smartphones (you can hack) today.
The best part about this overclocking hack is that it doesn’t deprive your Nexus One of additional battery power because it’s overclocked and uses slightly less CPU voltage. Basically, it makes your Nexus One as fast as it can be.
You can read full step-by-step instructions I wrote over here at Nexus One Hacks blog.
For those of you who want to try a different keyboard than the stock Nexus One provides, you might want to try the HTC keyboard. Installing is pretty easy, no rooting needed. You can see full step-by-step instructions on how to install the HTC keyboard over at our Nexus One Hacks blog.
I really like this keyboard a lot, even better than the Better Keyboard app I bought for $3.99. Best of all, it

Recently, as you know, I got the Google Nexus One, meaning now I have two smartphones along with my Palm Pre. Well, I’ve come to realize that it’s good to have the best of both worlds, let me give you a bit of comparison test between the Nexus One’s video versus Palm Pre’s video.
First, the Nexus One excels in video with much higher resolution at 5 megapixels and comes with two microphones to enable noise-suppression technology, meaning you can record the voice much better in noisy environments.
But I
I found this hack on YouTube by a kid named Ray, who shows you how to download and install paid apps for free. Of course, it’s probably illegal and we highly recommend to buy your apps and it’s informational purposes ONLY!

Basically what you do is do a Google search for any .apk files. For example, if you wanted an app called Picaso (just making it up), do a Google search for Picaso.apk.
Download the apk file, copy it to your phone’s SD card, then use apkInstaller to install
You know my friend has just got the Droid couple months ago. Well, the problem is that the Droid and all Android 2.0.1 or 2.1 operating systems don’t support the Thai language (and many other languages) by default.
He asked me to see if I can change that since he read a lot of Thai websites and not being able to read Thai on his Droid sucked.
Well, after about an hour of rooting the Droid, installing BusyBox, and copying over .ttf font files to the system font folder, hi

The highlights of Google Nexus One over an iPhone isn’t that it has about 35% faster 1Ghz Snapdragon CPU processor (instead of iPhone’s 666Mhz Snapdragon CPU) or that Nexus One has a whopping 5 mega-pixel camera and two microphones for noise-suppression, but that Nexus One will be(is already for me) supporting Adobe’s Flash Player 10.1.
