Nokia's Lumia 900 will make its U.S. launch on April 8, at which point AT&T will begin selling the phone for a relatively modest $99. The handset isn't the first Windows Phone-powered Nokia device to hit the U.S. market -- T-Mobile has carried the Lumia 710 for months. However, the LTE-enabled L...

With sales of the iPad 2 and the Amazon Kindle Fire breaking records over the holiday season, it might appear that the tablet market is becoming dominated by two devices, with the iPad at the high end and the Kindle Fire at the low end. Consider this: Research In Motion's BlackBerry PlayBook is lang...
Research In Motion announced a change in management over the weekend, but it got the cold shoulder from Wall Street on Monday.
