Whether you want to call it the HTC Vision, Vanguard or G1 Blaze, a mention of the rumoured phone has been dug up in some source code on a mysterious teaser product page at T-Mobile. More »

It’s not impossible to find a knock-off of a Sega Genesis (or Mega Drive), but this new version by Blaze may be the best reproduction yet.
If you weren’t lucky enough to have an SNES back in the 90′s, and were instead stuck with a Sega Megadrive (Genesis), the Blaze 16-bit handheld will bring a flood of those memories back to the surface and them some.

Blaze is a fraction of the size of the original Genesis, and comes preloaded with 20 games. Some of them are actually pretty good.
The Boy Genius Report has a first look at Motorola’s answer to the “Touch Screen Wars,” called the Blaze. From the looks of the branding, this touchy-feely handset is coming to Verizon, complete with a special Verizon-only operating system. BGR says the touch screen is decent, and the mobile browser is “OK,” but nothing to write home about. Email and texting functionality are also lambasted by BGR, as is the crush-the-screen-to-make-it-work haptic touchscreen feedback. Specs include a 2 megapixel camera, EV-DO Rev. A support, GPS, and Bluetooth. They didn’t sound too keen on the Blaze, but they didn’t write it off completely. Thoughts? [Boy Genius Report]
