Google has just expanded
Android Market paid app sales to 20 new international markets, promising to add another 18 countries over the next two weeks. According to Android Developer Ecosystem manager Eric Chu, support for paid apps now spans across nations including Canada, Russia, Australia, Brazil, Mexico, South Korea and Taiwan.
Originally nine countries were allowed to market paid android Apps. These original nations included Italy, France, Japan, Netherlands, UK, Spain, Germany, and Austria and needless to say, the United States of America.
But here is the trick, if you live out of those countries and you want to get paid applications, you only need to do is get a sim card from one of those countries (don’t worry if the phone number of the sim card does not work). Market only sees the country code of the sim card to give you access to paid applications. I did it and works the same, just make sure after installing all the paid applications you want, switch back to your own sim card.
Enjoy!

Back in April, RIM announced the new version of its Blackberry Peal. The new Blackberry 9100 is an upgrade of the 8100, featuring WiFi b/g/n, GPS, and for the first time , a Pearl with 3G bands. There are 2 version, one compatible with AT&T bands and one with AWS (1700/2100) used by T-Mobile and Cincinnati Bell.
Well now, seams neither AT&T or T-Mobile were the first American carrier offering the Pearl 9100. Cincinnati Bell started to offer the new Blackberry Pearl 3G in the USA, for 99.99 with 2 years commitment. According with the Road Map leaked few weeks ago, RIM will launch a new phone by September, maybe the Pearl 3G or the new Curve 9300. We just hope this beauty will land soon on T-Mobile’s line up.
Cross your fingers.

Sprint Nextel, the first U.S. carrier to roll out a 4G network, is considering changing its 4G strategy in a way that could encourage a merger with T-Mobile, according to a July 12 report from the Financial Times.
According to Technology Business Research Analyst Ken Hyers, the rollout of an LTE network would be in keeping with statements Clearwire has made — and would prevent Sprint from being isolated in its technology choice as Verizon and AT&T’s 4G networks go live.
