Looks like Google wants us to get in a shopping mood. The Android Market has crossed 10 Billion app downloads and is offering 10 premium apps for just 10 cents. This festival will run for 10 days. At the time of writing (Tuesday), the following apps are available for 10 cents:
SoundHound, Asphalt 6: Adrenaline HD , Minecraft – Pocket Edition, Swiftkey X Keyboard, Endomondo Sports Tracker Pro, Great Little War Game, SketchBook Mobile, Fieldruners HD, Color & Draw for kids:phone, Paper Camera
Unlike what other websites are reporting, this offer may not be restricted to just 10 apps. The banner (on the right screenshot) shows app icons that have not yet been listed so chances are that there will be 10 new apps & games everyday. Hell yeah!

Siri has created a lot of buzz recently. It is a interesting app and does many things, which we could only imagine in past. It’s like having a personal assistant with you 24/7.
With Microsoft claiming that they have had capabilities like Siri in Windows Phone for more than a year, here is a video showing how miserably Tellme fails against Siri.

One of the major things that separates Android from iOS is the ability to add widgets on the home screens. Widgets can be a cool way to interact with your smartphone and while you get basic calendar, clock, Facebook and other widgets with your smartphone, the online community i.e the Android Market has a lot more to offer.
Here are some of the best widgets available for your Android, both paid and free, ranging from full widget packs to small single purpose clock/battery widgets to customize your super phone.

Pidgin always had the love of Linux users and due to its vast pool of plugins and multi network support (more than 16), its arguably one of the best chat client on windows as well.
It was originally created in 1998 with the name: Gaim. It’s completely free and open source. Did I tell you that its available for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux, BSD, Solaris and even Amiga!
The best part of Pidgin is that, unlike other desktop clients such as Digsby,Yahoo! etc. which show nagware and spam you to the core, Pidgin lets you do what you intend to: Chat Peacefully! It sits quietly in the tray so that it won’t come in your way.

When apple unveiled Siri on the iPhone 4S, we, Android owners became really jealous of it. Further, all the youtube videos and funny conversations with Siri (StuffSiriSaid) added more salt to it.
Behold! Narayan Babu, with his Dexetra team, has built a personal assistant app (sort of), similar to Siri – Iris. Yepp, that’s Siri spelled backwards. What’s interesting to note here is that he built this funky app within 8 hours in a hackathon. The name has also got a crazy expansion - Intelligent Rival Imitator of Siri.

Wow. We’ve got some photos of Nexus Prime and the all-new Ice Cream Sandwich leaked by a Romanian website, Mobilissimo. The phone looks similar to the Nexus S to me, with better specifications including a bigger screen. The best part? No buttons et al!
The phone is running on Android Ice Cream Sandwich, which may end the relationship of fragmentation with Android forever.
Thanks to the Romanian folks, here are several screenshots of the Sandwich interface showing the Home-Screens overview, Lock-screen, Settings, Widgets & App drawer and oh what’s that at the end? The all new music player 4.0! So sit back and enjoy.
