When it comes to gaming on a smartphone, there are no shortage of options. There is an astonishingly large number of games currently available in the Android Market.

A company called Extent is addressing both of those issues with the launch of GameTanium for Android. GameTanium is an on-demand gaming service for Android.

Yesterday, the oft-rumored HTC Status officially launched on AT&T. The first Facebook phone manufactured by HTC can be purchased for $49.99 on a two year agreement or $399 off contract. Both prices are affordable and makes sense, in my opinion, as the Status is a mid-range Android smartphone appealing to those who need to be constantly connected to Facebook and quick messaging. To recap the specs, the Status features a 2.6 inch touch screen display, Android 2.3, HTC Sense, 512MB of RAM, 800MHz processor, 5MP rear facing camera, VGA front facing camera, and a portrait style QWERTY keyboard.
