"One of the worst-kept secrets of this spring is that the Droid Incredible 2 is coming to Verizon. Maybe you've seen the leaked pictures, or a leaked roadmap -- but it's definitely coming."

More information about the Droid Incredible 2 is coming to light. It now appears as if the Incredible 2 will be a world phone with GSM and CDMA and it will have front and rear facing cameras. None of the details are confirmed as of yet because Verizon still has to make their official announcement, but multiple cameras and world usage are great features to have in a phone!

T-Mobile to Speed-up HSPA+ to 42Mbps

Posted by Craig Horlacher in "Android News" @ 08:30 AM

"T-Mobile is announcing this evening that it's now got 75 live HSPA+ markets online, with coverage for roughly 200 million Americans up and running by the end of 2010. That footprint will start off at a theoretical max downlink of 21Mbps, but the carrier will be looking to scale that to 42Mbps in 2011 with the capacity to upgrade to 84 and 168Mbps down the road -- all without ever worrying about LTE"

I knew HSPA had growing room but man, 42Mbps this year with up to 168Mbp down the road is impressive. Since current WiMax offerings I've heard of are only in the 5-20Mbps, HSPA+ sounds pretty good. I am curious if many people would even use or notice the increased speed that current "4G" implementations offer. Can you think of a situation where it would be valuable to you on a somewhat regular basis? Would you be willing to pay extra for high speed service? If you're using WiMax already, are you happy with it? Is battery life a problem for you?
