Verizon’s Droid RAZR gets violet coat of paint, price tumbles to $200 on contract

Motorola has already unveiled the RAZR’s bigger, battery-savvy brother, the Maxx , but it’s not yet done with the original kevlar-skinned smartphone. Yes, the RAZR will get a color palette refresh for the new year, with Verizon readying a metallic purple edition for just under $200 — that’s a hundred bucks less than what Big Red hopes you’ll lay down for the newer Maxx. Like its white and black siblings, it will shed the 16GB SD card that arrived with the first issue RAZR , leaving 16GB of built-in storage

ICS-based CyanogenMod 9: it’s on track, but not for everybody

Ahmet — Tue, 06 Dec 2011 17:04:00 +0000

The CM9 customization for Android 4.0 has only been in the works since mid-November and already its canny creators claim to have it running on a number of devices. They say they’re making the quickest progress with OMAP4, MSM8660/7×30 and Exynos-based handsets, so if you own of those you should find yourself at the top of the queue. Despite difficulties with totally new camera and graphics drivers in ICS, there should eventually be support for all CM7-compatible models going back to phones like the Nexus One, as well as the Tegra 2-powered Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Asus Transformer
