According to Armdevices.net, they have a tip that someone in Google is confirming that an ARM-powered Google TV is in the works, and will be released "soon." Whether or not this "tip" is something that can be trusted, it would certainly be awesome to see a sub $100 ARM powered Google TV on the market. It can do nothing but help the platform spread to the masses. Read More »

For those of you who were concerned, T-Mobile's official follow-up to the Cliq is available today. Customers can grab one for $99 a pop, after a $100 mail-in rebate and two-year service agreement. Although it does have Motorola's signature fingerprint on it with MOTOBLUR, we still found the device a more than worthy successor to the Cliq name, besting it all around. Read More »

Back in November, we heard that game developer PopCap was working on Android versions of several of its most popular games, aiming to release them in "early 2011." We now have more information: Bejeweled 2 will debut this week. Plants vs. Zombies, Peggle and Chuzzle are on track to release in the second quarter of 2011.
