Unfortunately though, these latest details are not coming by way of an official announcement, but at least they are coming by way of images of an internal Verizon system. Anyway, the image shows that the HTC ADR6350 (also noted as INCRD 2 and HTC63503PKSP) has been listed with Verizon. Needless to say, we remain hopeful that a release announcement is coming soon rather than later.

The details are coming by way of winrumors who are citing “people familiar with the company’s plans.” That said, it looks like the HTC Trophy will be available in late March and it will arrive with an on-contract price tag of $200. Other details suggest that Verizon could make the official announcement on February 28th (this coming Monday). And on another positive note, the Trophy will arrive with the “NoDo” WP7 update in place, meaning it will arrive with copy and paste. via [winrumors] Full Story » | Written by Robert Nelson for Gadgetell. | Comment on this Article » Section: Communications, Cellular Providers, Smartphones, Mobile, Computers, Mobile Computers A few days back we learned that AT&T was no longer going to allow third party retailers to sell their phones online. This applies to companies such as LetsTalk and Wirefly and while that is not the best news for those looking for a deal in terms of lower prices or waived activation fees—there is at least one more AT&T related deal to be had. The offer is for the Motorola Atrix 4G smartphone and laptop dock which is priced at $429.99. Granted, that is not the hugest of savings, but it will still save you about $70 as compared to buying direct with AT&T. And plus, the discounts come by way of instant rebates and those are always better than the mail-in type. With that, we should also point out that this offer is set to expire on February 28th.

Of course, I guess the sad aspect is starting to come into play, because without fail we still try and read it every day. That said, the most recent update brought the app up to version 1.0.3 and with that was supposed be “improved stability.” Well, maybe that is true in part, maybe we were able to get three quarters through an issue as opposed to half way through. But joking aside, The Daily free trial has once again been extended, its now free until March 21st. Otherwise, the “what’s new” section in the App Store listing notes these updates; Essential update to The Daily! Including an extended free trial period. For best results when updating please delete the older version of the app from your iPad before installing this one. This new version of The Daily (v1.0.3) focuses on the things our readers have requested most: - Improved stability
- Increased responsiveness throughout the app
- Improved performance when using offline or connecting via 3G
