Remember the good ol’ FCC leaking out the new Zune 120GB? Well, now there have been some pictures released by the Canadians that show off two new larger capacity Zune players. The image includes a 16GB flash based model and the new 120GB model.

The pictures show up pretty clear considering they were taking from a phone, and you can see that the 16GB Zune has a glossy screen. It would make sense that Microsoft is updating their Zunes, as there have been rumors of what Apple plans to do come their special event. If Apple decides to update their nano, Microsoft will want to have something updated in their Zune line up as well.

Stay tuned for any further developments.

Thanks to the diligent work of one of our ninjas, we’ve come into contact with a new Verizon rebate sheet. While it does reveal a couple of goodies, the sad truth is that there’s not a whole lot of substance on here. No mention of the Blackberry Storm Thunder Storm, HTC Touch Diamond/Pro, or anything else to get us too excited. What you should be able to find in the next month, however, are the following new phones available from your friendly neighborhood Verizon dealer:

• Motorola Krave ZN4 in lovely Titanium
• Samsung Sway, a.k.a the Samsung SCH-u650. A 2 megapixel Bluetooth-equipped slider
• Samsung Knack
• LG VX8360, a middle-of-the-road flip phone
• LG VX5500, another low-end Bluetooth-equipped handset

Excited? Yeah, we didn’t think so. While rebate sheets are never the end-all, be-all of handset release info, we’re not exactly feeling a lot of inspiration from big V’s upcoming release plans. Then again, there might be more surprises in store come September. Hit the jump for the rest of the rebate sheet!

Thanks, Harris!

I don’t look at the crawl stats in Webmaster Tools very often but it seems like Googlebot has reduced it’s crawl rate significantly on BlogStorm over the summer.

Has anybody else seen this?

Did Googlebot take the summer off?

Forget about the FCC specs and the blurry spy images that have been passed around thus far. Here it is T-Mobile people, the handset you’ve been waiting for. Behold the T-Mobile branded HTC “Dream” G1 in all of its screen-sliding, qwerty-rocking, Android-powered glory. Queue the sting ensemble. Shown here in white sporting what is likely a near-release version of Android, the G1 is basically exactly what we all hoped it would be. It’s not all unicorns and pixie dust however. As much as we can’t wait to see this handset released, the new clearer images do bring a potential problem to light. While it won’t be a deal-breaker for most we presume, check out the recessed area that the qwerty keyboard sits in. Couple that with the off-center design and reaching those top two rows on the right side of the keyboard is quite possibly going to be a bit awkward, especially for those with smaller hands. Oh well, you know you still want it. Hit the jump for some more quality shots of this baby in action.
