Motorola RAZR HD appears in some new images sporting Vodafone software

Better known as the Droid RAZR HD from previous images, some new photos of the Motorola RAZR HD have now turned up sporting some Vodafone software. Looking at them it's kind of hard to tell where in the RAZR HD timeline this particular device is. It could be an earlier engineering unit that was made available before the Verizon branded versions were handed out or it could be a later revision but either way, we may never know, as the person who posted the photos doesn't have the device. We know the FCC has this one already, awaiting approval so it's only a matter of time before this one fully lands. Some more images can be found below for your viewing pleasure.

Samsung Galaxy S III for T-Mobile USA appears, looks unchanged from Euro versions

By now, we've all got a good look at the Samsung Galaxy S III and know it will eventually be making its way to carriers across the U.S. The Verge though, has been slipped what appears to be the T-Mobile U.S. version. Aside from the T-Mobile badging, however, you'd never know this version from the European versions. It's a spitting image of the same one we crawled all over at the announcement in London a month ago.

And that's the weird part. Normally, U.S. carriers like to add their own swing onto devices (for better or worse). A button change here, a button change there. But if these images are accurate then T-Mobile -- and quite possibly likely every other U.S. carrier -- has left the Samsung Galaxy S III untouched and we'll see very little variation across the board. That folks, is a very good thing to have happen and hopefully a trend that will continue.

'HTC Wildfire C' appears in leaked press image

AppId is over the quota AppId is over the quota

Looks like HTC may be preparing to bolster its entry-level line up with a new member of the Wildfire family. The image above leaked out today on PocketNow, claiming to show the HTC Wildfire C, previously known by its codename "Golf. A list of purported specs appeared alongside the pic, claiming a 3.5-inch HVGA screen, 4GB of internal storage and a 5MP camera. On the software side, the device apparently runs Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich and HTC Sense 4. Again, no surprises there.

If the specs are accurate, it looks like this phone will be positioned below the HTC One V, which includes a slightly larger, higher-quality screen. And if the history of the Wildfire name is any indication, we'd carriers to offer the 'Wildfire C' for free on fairly low-cost contracts.

Samsung Galaxy S III appears on Amazon Germany, sort of

Guten tag, mein freund! A list for the Samsung Galaxy S3 appeared on the site Amazon German, complete with a button "Add to basket" and "Add to the Wishlist". Go to add to your list of wishes if you want, we ' ll wait. It ' not uncommon to see pages of the space very awaited new weeks before electronics they are available, or even announced, but there s ' s an interesting twist here.

This twist is the listed specifications. Person who ' s speak knows what they are and all that you ' ve read so far is reasoned conjecture. I ' ll say once again, in terms that can ' t be interpreted - the people of Samsung with the product who know the specs. They aren't ' t tell anyone and we ' re just guess and merge all the rumours. But as noted by BestBoyz.de people, Amazon is real specifications have to list to allow a pre-order of sorts by dropping it in your list of wishes. Here ' s what Amazon has to say about the SGS3:

• 11.9 (4.7 inches) touch screen Super AMOLED 16 million colors
• camera 12 megapixels with autofocus, LED flash and face detection
• Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich of operating system
• 16 GB memory, expandable up to 32 GB
• Delivery: Phone, battery, charger, data cable, headset, manual (Note: the exact scope of the delivery are not known)

I ' ll go out on a limb and say that at least two elements of this list are true - he will be delivered with ICS, and the "scope of delivery of are not known". For the rest? We ' re not lawyers. We ' specialists re certainly not German commercial law, no matter how much beer we drink or Knödel how much we eat. It is refined fuel for the fire SGS3 is boys and girls. We ' re will just wait until May 3 and discover in London.

HTC PJ53100 appears at the FCC, looks to be headed for Verizon

There has been more then a few HTC devices floating around out there for the past few months, most of which have now been uncovered but one lingering about at the FCC is the HTC PJ53100. The FCC shares the fact this one has Verizon LTE bands on board and not much else so we're left to wonder if this is the unannounced device that popped up a few days ago referred to as the Droid Incredible HD aka Droid Incredible 4G. It's certainly not a lot to go on, but we'll be keeping a look out for further details and once we know -- you'll know.
