<p>Following the Apple MacBook Pro leak saga? Rumors have been swirling practically every day about Apple&#8217;s latest MacBook Pro refresh, and a leaked photo from earlier today appears to confirm part of what we <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/02/21/new-macbook-pro-models-imminent-weve-got-some-new-details/">exclusively reported</a> &#8212; that Apple&#8217;s new MacBook Pro&#8217;s will have larger all-glass multitouch trackpads. The same report also confirms the presence of <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2011/02/23/apples-macbook-pro-specs-leak-light-peak-port-to-be-dubbed-thunderbolt/">a Thunderbolt port</a> on the new MacBook Pro, which is Apple&#8217;s name for Intel&#8217;s Light Peak connection set to be unveiled tomorrow as well.</p>
<p><strong>UPDATE:</strong> Upon closer inspection, it looks as though the MacBook Pro pictured above may have the same sized trackpad as the current 13-inch model, though it is possible that the new 13-inch model will retain the same sized trackpad while the 15 and/or 17-inch models may see a size increase.<span id="more-77824"></span></p>

		<description><![CDATA[Chinese forum IT168 is at it again, with more leaked images of Sony Ericsson&#8217;s refreshed X10 Mini Pro. Previous rumors have the next-generation Mini Pro packing a 1GHz CPU with an independent GPU, 3-inch 320 x 480 pixel touchscreen display, and Google&#8217;s latest Android 2.3 operating system. From the images we&#8217;ve seen, it also looks like the hanset will have a front-facing camera for video calling and a rear-facing camera of an undisclosed pixel count (although judging by the &#8220;HD&#8221; label, we&#8217;re guessing it has to be at least 5 megapixels). There is one more picture of the device&#8217;s posterior after the break. Have a look and let us know what you think! Read]]></description>

<p>Earlier this morning, we told you that <a href="http://www.bgr.com/2010/12/16/best-buy-mysteriously-halts-sale-of-verizons-droid-2-global-droid-pro/">retail giant Best Buy began pulling</a> Motorola&#8217;s DROID 2 Global and DROID Pro from store shelves. Although the cause was initially rumored to be a handset pricing dispute between the two companies, that simply is not the case. In an email to BGR, a Verizon Wireless spokesperson noted that the company has not mandated or otherwise requested Best Buy to remove the devices from its shelves. The spokesperson went on to emphasize that there is not any kind of recall (hardware, software, or otherwise) that would explain such an action. To hammer that point home, Verizon&#8217;s official Twitter account let this 140-character cherub loose this afternoon:</p>
<blockquote><p>DROID 2 Glob and DROID Pro are great phones. Stop by your Verizon Wireless store and try &#8216;em out! <a title="#droid" rel="nofollow" href="http://twitter.com/#!/search?q=%23droid">#droid</a></p></blockquote>
<p>Best Buy has yet to respond to BGR&#8217;s request for comment. For the time being, Best Buy is playing this one pretty close to the vest.</p>

<p>Thinking about treating yourself to one of Verizon&#8217;s DROID smartphones right before the holidays? You&#8217;ll definitely want to check out this latest deal from AmazonWireless. The online retail giant has the full compliment of DROID devices from Big Red &#8212; the DROID Incredible, X, 2, and Pro &#8211; on sale for a single penny for those opening a new line of service. The offer is good now through November 22nd and includes free activation. If you&#8217;re thinking about jumping over to Verizon, how can you go wrong with a deal like this?</p>
<p>Now, if you&#8217;re already a VZW customer, and the DROID Pro has caught your eye, Best Buy is offering the new candy bar set for a very reasonable $99.99 with a signed two-year agreement; that is a full $80 below the on-contract price being offered by Verizon. It also looks like Best Buy&#8217;s $100 offer is being served straight-up, with no mail-in rebate or other forms required. Man the holidays are a great time to buy a cell phone.</p>
<p>Let us know what you think of the two deals!</p>
<p><strong>UPDATE</strong>: Wirefly is selling the DROID Pro to new 2-year contract signers for an even lower $50. [<a href="http://www.wirefly.com/catalog/verizon_wireless/motorola/droid-pro-black/">Read</a>]<span id="more-67357"></span></p>
