LG T500 and Etna 11 C330 Handsets Spotted At MWC
This handset will likely be a part of the growing Neon line-up and it sports a 2.4-inch QVGA touchscreen display, a slide-out QWERTY keyboard, social networking, and a rear-facing camera. This one's, of course, intended for the teens for quick text messaging. Price and release dates for both of these handsets are unknown right now.

Toshiba Portege R830, Sallite R830, and R850 Notebooks All Official
Toshiba's two other notebooks, the Satellite R830 and R850, are pretty similar to the Portege R830 and that's why the number is the same. The R830 are the same, while the R850 notebook features a larger 15.6-inch display with a slightly stronger chassis. That means that you get your choice of Intel "Sandy Brige" CPUs, up to 8GB of RAM, a whole lot of HDD storage, an HDMI output, Bluetooth 3.0 / WiFi b/g/n support, an integrated webcam, and Windows 7. These two notebooks will be available in Q2 of this year, just like the Portege R830.

Android At 150,000 Apps and 350,000 Activations Daily, Next Version Will Have Gingerbread and Honeycomb Features
Schmidt mentioned that the OS will be getting updated every six months still - not once a year which is what Vic Gundontra told us. Maybe they're still working on getting it to once a year for now. That's not all though. He also mentioned that the next version of Android, Ice Cream, will be combining the great aspects of Gingerbread and Honeycomb which is great. He didn't tease what the future of the mobile OS would look like but Google I/O is happening soon so maybe it'll happen then.

Apple's Next iPhone To Have a 4-Inch Display?
The firm has mentioned that Apple's next iPhone may actually feature a larger (and much better) 4-inch display. So much for 3.5-inches being the perfect size. They're likely doing this to stunt the growth of larger and higher-end Android devices because I believe that 4-inch displays are the perfect size for smartphones right now. Well, we'll see if this ever happens.

Android-Based HTC Incredible S, Desire S, and Wildfire S All Get Announced
This smartphone is the best of the bunch and features a 4-inch WVGA Super LCD display, a 1GHz Snapdragon CPU, 1.1GB of ROM, a microSD card slot, 768MB of RAM, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth 2.1 support, an 8MP AF camera with a dual-LED flash and 720p HD video recording, a front-facing 1.3MP camera, aGPS, and sadly just Android 2.2 with the Sense UI. The buttons on this smartphone aren't labels (Engadget points out) so when you turn the phone the buttons will turn as well. That's pretty neat. This will be available sometime in the middle of Q2. Pretty good for their latest flagship but Samsung seems to be blowing them out of the water.
Next up from the company is the HTC Desire S. This one packs a similar spec sheet but features a smaller 3.7-inch S-LCD WVGA display, a lower 5MP AF camera with an LED flash and 720p HD video recording, a front-facing camera, and runs Android 2.4 with the Sense UI. It's pretty similar to the original Desire so if you already have that then it might not be worth the upgrade. This will also be available in mid-Q2.

Android Powered HTC Salsa and Chacha Get Revealed, and They Have a Facebook Button!
The above handset is the HTC Salsa and it packs a 3.4-inch touchscreen display with a 320 x 480 resolution, a 600MHz CPU, 512MB of ROM / RAM, a microSD card slot, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth 3.0 support, a 5MP AF camera with an LED flash, a front-facing camera, a 12.3mm body, and Android 2.4 with the Sense UI. This handset is barely different from the HTC Legend but people will likely still go out and buy one.
The other "Facebook phone" is the HTC Chacha. This one packs a 2.6-inch display, a QWERTY keyboard, 512MB of ROM / RAM, a microSD card slot, WiFi b/g/n / Bluetooth 3.0 support, a 5MP AF camera with an LED flash, a front-facing camera, a 600MHz CPU, a 10.7mm thin body (with a slight chin), and Android with the Sense UI.
Update: Facebook has mentioned that you can expect a "dozen" of these phones this year and these are the first two.

HTC "Revolver" Leaks and Could Be Their Next Flagship; 4.3-Inch Device With Honeycomb?
This is looking like a pretty damn good handset but it doesn't look attractive to me. Apparently, the tipster mentioned that this will be hitting AT&T's website this Spring and it'll be marked as "Coming Soon". Does that mean we'll see it at MWC? Possibly.
