The Engadget Mobile Podcast, live at 5:15PM ET!
Are your ears ready for our most Sensational podcast yet? HTC dropped a dual-core bomb on central London this week with its super-specced new Android smartphone, but somehow that managed to be only the second awesome announcement of the day, after Nokia reached into its bag of tricks and whipped out the new E6 Symbian handset with the sickly pixel density of 326ppi. It'll be accompanied to market by the entertainment-savvy X7, with both phones shipping with the latest Symbian Anna OS installed. Should you be interested in Nokia's more distant future, we also dropped by Microsoft's MIX 11 developer conference this week, where Windows Phone 7's Next iteration made us positively giddy with excitement. Like we say, it's gonna be sensational. Tune in to this post to hear it all live!

3D HTCs, dual-core LGs, 8.9-inch Samsungs, and a sun-soaking display: needless to say, it's been a fun CTIA Wireless as usual, and that's not even including all the AT&T / T-Mobile madness from last weekend! We're curled up beside the fire (you know, because there are fireplaces strewn about the CTIA show floor) with a microphone to bring you the week in mobile news... live from sunny Orlando, Florida.

Either way, we love and support you -- but we'd love and support you even more if you'd join us after the break. Do it!

Engadget Mobile Podcast 077: Mobile World Congress - 02.19.2011
Mobile World Congress felt like a whole darn lifetime. Or did it feel like it was gone in the blink of an eye? Somewhere between the two, probably. Anyway!

Ahh, Barthelona. It's not 100% Spain, but it is 100% awesome. And, this time of year, it's full of people like us trying to wrap our brains around a never-ending barrage of new fliphones and pagers. It's a full house today, plus one, gathered around a single microphone on a Catalonian hotel room bed.

The Engadget Mobile Podcast, live... right now!
So we're all out in Barcelona for MWC this week, which... you know, would explain the odd time of the podcast, wouldn't it? The show floor opens tomorrow, but a number of press events have already gone down -- Nokia, Samsung, Sony Ericsson, specifically -- so as you can imagine, we have quite a bit to discuss. Follow the break for the unedited madness.
The Engadget Mobile Podcast returns next week, live from Mobile World Congress!
Most of the team is en route to lovely Barcelona, Spain today to take part in Mobile World Congress next week -- and in light of all the Nokia news, the rise of dual-core mobile processors, and the onslaught of tablets, we're expecting it to be a very busy show indeed. What does that mean for you? Well, apart from the fact that it means you'll have a ton of awesome hands-on content to drool over in the next few days, it means that we're not able to put together a podcast for you today. No worries, though: we'll be doing broadcasts live during the show as we're able, so stay tuned!

Dying for some Engadget Mobile podcast action? Don't worry: we've got a show queued up for this coming Monday, February 7th! In the meantime, be sure to catch Chris as a guest on the Engadget Classic podcast, recorded live today -- you should be able to find it on the site tomorrow. That should be enough to hold you over through the weekend, right?
The Engadget Mobile Podcast, live at 8:30 ET!
Along with white truffles and X-Files reruns, Sunday broadcasts of the Engadget Mobile podcast qualify as one of the rarest treats this world has to offer. Join us for a rollercoaster ride of Android, webOS, iOS, Windows Phone 7, and everything in between as we debate -- hotly, may we add -- the biggest topics in wireless today (and if you can't, no worries -- there's always the recorded version).
The Engadget Mobile Podcast returns tomorrow, January 30th!
If you're starting to get a little jittery over the lack of a podcast episode on Friday, consider this news a calming salve for your frayed nerves: we'll be broadcasting live tomorrow, Sunday, January 30th! Between that and The Engadget Show with special guest Steve Wozniak, we'd say there's a lot to be excited about -- and let's be honest, with nothing but the Pro Bowl to entertain you football-wise, you need all the excitement you can get. See you tomorrow! Note: We don't have a time yet, but we'll give you a heads-up on the site (and on our Twitter account) just as soon as we know.
