Like its predecessor, Droid, Bionic is definitely not small. 4.3-inch screen is one of the largest in the smart phone market right now, and if you wear tight jeans and hoofingit around the Las Vegas Strip during the day as I have done, a fat-bodied Bionic in the bag can carry on a little scuffed.

If you’re an avid Twitter user and an avid Android smartphone user, you’ve been waiting for this day. The day where those developers at Twitter’s headquarters man up and release a Twitter app that can seriously compete with the likes of TweetDeck, Twidroid, and HootSuite. Well, fellow tweeters, it appears that time has come — the official Twitter Android 2.0 app just hit the Market and it includes a pretty drastic UI overhaul, some bug fixes, and a few more key features.

Naturally, we hit the update button as soon as it popped up on our Droid 2 Global, and we have to say the first thing we noticed was the speed increase — our feed loaded quickly and jumping over to the different columns was snappy. Speaking of those columns, Twitter wiped the previous, overly-cutesy main homepage for four tabs that run along the top of the screen — there’s your regular feed, mentions, direct messages, and lists. It feels more like the iOS app, which definitely isn’t a bad thing. You can still pull-to-refresh and swipe left or right over a particular tweet to respond, retweet, or favorite it. So, what’s the best improvement? Besides the tidied up interface, we have to say it’s the auto-complete for usernames — punch in the @ symbol and start typing a name and you’ll get a list of suggested names. Twitter’s also improved the search functionality, but we’d suggest checking that out yourself. It won’t cost you a penny, we just hope you’re running Android 2.1 or higher. Nope, not even Twitter is safe from the evils of fragmentation.

Motorola’s MOTOBLUR ALL CAPS USER INTERFACE LAYER will be coming to the Xoom, it seems, though early indications are that the tablet will ship with vanilla Honeycomb on it. Wow, that sounds sticky.

Update: Marin Perez claims on Twitter that Motorola has denied Blur is coming to the tablet, and that it will be a Google experience device.

This is all according to Moto’s European director of Android product management, Jonathan Nattrass (his cards must be a mile long), who stated that they still plan to bring the “social aspect” to Android. I’m not sure what “social aspect” is lacking from 3.0, though, which looks like it’s got the social thing pretty much sewn up: (continue reading…)

Last week we heard that Motorola is aiming to ship 800,000 or more of its Xoom tablet in Q1. Aren’t we like halfway through Q1 already? But I digress. Now RIM is showing its manufacturing volume cards. All one million of ‘em! Yes, RIM has placed its orders with manufacturers, and is hoping to ship a million Playbooks in Q1, according to Digitimes. That’s a lot! But as we’ve seen, the Playbook is actually quite a compelling device, and with other options on the market, consumers might actually be shopping around instead of driving straight to the Apple store.
